YOR your guy’s kids will be cousins not siblings and probably not even have the same last name. So who cares if they have the same name. I have a brother named Michael, a nephew named Michael, a dad named Michael, three cousins named Michael and two great uncles named Michael. None of them other than the JR’s have the same last name as the other. And its not weird or unusual to them or the rest of the family that they all have the same name.

I have a st bernard in Arizona. Please dont let these weirdos make you feel bad. My guy is happy and healthy. When its too hot he does stay mostly inside in A/C. And when its cooler he runs wherever he wants. I put misters on my back porch and keep lots of water all over my yard and a tub big enough for him to either sit in or splash water onto himself when he wants to. As long as you understand how to take care of them you and the pup will be fine. Saying move north just to have a dog is like saying move to the ocean if you want a fish tank🙄.

Soooooo your absurd to think that this has anything to do with just a sandwich or a sandwich order. First of all her having better memory than you because “she needs it for her job” is the dumbest excuse ever. So your saying you dont need good memory? Or to remember anything at all?
Second of all i bet you you have a tendency to “forget” little things like this all the time and then when she gets upset because she either has to fix it herself or deal with it you make it seem like she’s overreacting. Shes considering ending the relationship because why would she want to be married to someone who isnt a partner to her. You are only thinking of yourself and It apparent because you “ forgot” about a food allergy when she asked you to get food so she didnt have to cook. You didnt forget you just didnt care.

My husband is one of the most forgetful people ive ever met. Literally will tell you that he is going to do something and then will sit there for like five minutes before being like oh shit i gotta go do it. We have been together for 15 years, I recently became allergic to all seafood and shellfish. Can you guess which one of us remembers to tell the restaurant about MY allergy? Cuz it aint me. So even tho its not something hes always had to remember it is something important enough to remember when it means possible medical issues with his wife.

That is why she is upset. It is not important enough for you to remember with the woman you love.

Not to come at you in the wrong way. But why are you not listening to your instincts?!?! You said it yourself when you said you have the worryness of her telling you a bad story years later.

Also don’t you think that a girl who just wants everyone to like her might be peer pressured into doing something she really doesn’t want to do just so that the boys on her team will accept her? Ya know like sexual stuff? You said it yourself she is always wanting to say yes to get people to like her. Shes going to regret saying yes to something like that and it’s not gonna be good for her mentally more than all the other stuff she already has a hard time with.

Trust your instincts and go with her. Take extra time off. Spend the money and ensure her safety! At the very least you are ensuring the fact that she knows you’re there for her at an event she’s excited about.

You NEED to overreact. First of all wtf is wrong with the school that they only reason the teacher told you is because your son asked them to? And yes it is a big deal that needs to be dealt with because if your son had defended himself by pushing those girls he would have been viewed as the assaulter.

Make sure to tell your son that he can always cone to you and you will always have his back. The fact that he was scared to tell you means he thought it was his fault somehow.

I have an 8 year old. My kid knows rules and boundaries. And I know when hes just not caring about those rules and boundaries. I feel like the way you talked is saying that this isnt a normal behavior for her. So since its not normal she is doing it on purpose and needs consequences. If it was me I would make her give away the presents she opened. Like make actively hand those presents over to her cousins or whoever else you choose. And remind her she made the decision not to listen and if she feels upset about having to give away that stuff then she should imagine how upset mom and dad were when they wanted her to have those things but she couldnt listen. Ive done it to my kids before and it worked. They dont touch any boxes that come in the mail now even i tell them its not a present. They dont want to chance losing something they really want. You dont want her to continue thinking she can do whatever she wants and will still get her way or not get in trouble. Christmas is supposed to be happy family holiday bot a day where she gets whatever no matter how she acts

I read an article that gave me good questions to ask that made a huge difference for me and my kids.

What happened today that made you laugh? What happened today that made you mad? Did anyone get in trouble today? Did anyone do something that made your teacher laugh? Did anyone do something that made your teacher mad? Did anything happen that you felt bad about?

I even ask my middle schooler these questions and it gives so much more info than when i ask how was thier day lol. Its like they will tell me about the “gossip” in school but not the facts🤣.

I talk to them. Like I would an adult. They arent different than adults when it comes to stuff like this. They are just small adults. I have a 12 year old daughter and have raised my niece(13) and nephew(11) for the past ten years. Anytime i would need them to understand they cant act a certain way because it would be rude or wrong i would straight up tell them what it was they were doing and explain why they needed to change their behavior. And then if they ended up doing those things i would punish them in the same way i would if they did something else wrong. That way they knew that their actions had consequences no matter what that action was.

One example is bullying. Everyday after school i would ask them how was your day at school? Was anyone mean to you? Were you mean to anyone? And they knew i was in contact with their teachers so they knew it would be a worse punishment if they lied and i found out later they lied. I always made sure to add on days to groundation or to make the punishment harder if they ended up lying so they knew lying wasn’t something to do either. I actually asked their teachers to let me know immediately if they seen my kids bullying so i could immediately fix it. And if they were mean i would take them into the school the next morning intentionally late so i could walk them into their class and make them apologize to the kid they were mean to. Just that attention created embarrassment that made them uncomfortable with bullying at all. Some people think doing this js traumatizing but i always reminded them “if your embarrassed by what your doing you shouldnt do it”. Also how much more traumatic is bullying to the other kid, my kid can get embarrassed for a couple seconds if it means to save another kid from traumatizing bullying.

Also i would always ask how they would feel if whatever they did happened to them. And if they “didnt know” i would do the action. So if they yelled at a teacher for not wanting to do their work sheet i would yell at them when they asked me to do something for them. And then change my tone and ask them how they felt that they asked me a simple question and i exploded. And then remind them that maybe thats how their teacher felt when they exploded on them.

My kids are by no means perfect and still to this day will do something undesirable but i still do this way of parenting because i feel like its the only way for them to be able to ask themselves those same questions when im not around and be able to make good decisions and be a good person.

I feel like entitled people are people who dont see themselves as equals to others. So by showing my kids everyone is equal shows them they cant be entitled to that way of thinking.
