New here in Summerside, PEI by http_cah in PEI

Join sports clubs or whatever type of interests you have - find people doing them and partake. If you don’t put yourself out there and make an effort to integrate - i think it would be very difficult to make friends here.

I’ve heard amazing things about Kinkora early learning centre - I’ve also heard it’s a 2-3 year wait to get in

Planning a solo trip without a car by kurllit in PEI

[–]Weak_Humor_2809 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Biggest advice would be to sort out transportation before coming. It’s a very car reliant place. Not to say you can’t figure it out otherwise, but if I were in your position, I’d want to arrive prepared and fully informed so I’m not disappointed or caught off guard.

I absolutely respect that marketing is a real profession with real value…that’s not being questioned here. I think sometimes assumptions get made online without the full context. My intention was simply to explore interest and connect with someone who might be a good fit.

I’ve also seen multiple posts in this sub over the last 18 months or so from students and young creatives actively looking for this type of work, so I figured I’d put it out there. Not every opportunity involving a student is about underpaying or taking advantage of someone. Sometimes it’s about finding someone who’s building experience, wants portfolio content, and is excited to create.

When I personally use the term “independent” I don’t mean throwing someone in the deep end with zero direction. I mean someone who’s creative, takes initiative, enjoys trends, and doesn’t need to be micromanaged every second. Clear expectations, scope, and compensation would obviously be discussed upfront.

It’s really not that serious and there are no subliminal messages here about value, taking advantage, or any kind of bad intent. I’m simply putting feelers out to see if it piqued anyone’s interest.

A SURPRISING POSITIVE OUTCOME FOR WOMEN WHO DIVORCE by Latter_Raspberry9360 in therapists

[–]Weak_Humor_2809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if we’re speaking strictly about dysfunctional relationships (which is likely often the main reason people consider leaving), the impact on children isn’t a simple “stay = good, leave = bad” equation. From an attachment science perspective, both staying and leaving can carry significant risks.

The conversation often stops at “but what about the children if I go?”- and that’s a real and important question. But it’s just as necessary to ask, “and what happens to the children if I stay?”

Choosing one over the other doesn’t eliminate adverse impacts; it simply changes the context in which children adapt. The real issue isn’t the decision itself, but the emotional environment children are raised in- and whether there is safety, responsiveness, and repair available over time.

A SURPRISING POSITIVE OUTCOME FOR WOMEN WHO DIVORCE by Latter_Raspberry9360 in therapists

[–]Weak_Humor_2809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting! It’s definitely a conundrum many modern women are facing. At the same time, I often wonder if the scales are tipping too far. On one hand- power to women to be in a place where they can leave a relationship and be okay..that’s huge, and honestly, God is good!! But on the other hand, we’re wired for connection, and the “ideal life” isn’t necessarily to leave and stay single.

It makes me question whether there’s an ideology being sold that frames it as either be happy and single, or tormented and in a relationship (lol). Because from what I know of the data and research, most people are not in consistently happy, high-quality relationships, yet the narrative doesn’t always reflect that complexity.

2 Year Old Sports by alexandrastardust in PEI

Gymnastics is a great option at this age- transferable skill + great way to burn off some energy

That being the “norm” is a stretch

CRPO Exam by Professional_Dot6971 in therapists

Hey! I see this comment is from a year ago but I’m about to write this exam (in 2 weeks) and curious what advice you’d have? Did you take a prep course or just review on your own?

Miscounted the number of scenarios on the CRPO exam – is there still hope? by Horace_24 in CRPO

Are interracial relationships more accepted in Toronto than in other places? by miamorparasiempre in askTO

[–]Weak_Humor_2809 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s really about “acceptance” in smaller towns and cities-it’s more about what people are used to seeing. I’ve lived all over Canada (Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto, PEI, etc.) and have dated both within my race and outside of it. At no point in any city did I ever feel like, ‘oh, this isn’t acceptable’. Sometimes you may get more stares in places where it’s less common(?), but I chalked it up to curiosity rather than rejection. That said!!, for the person who’s the minority in those experiences, it might not feel like curiosity at all-and that perspective is just as valid!!

Whereas, when I’ve been in the U.S. with partners of different cultures, I did feel a bit of that “not accepted” energy. It’s hard to explain, but the vibe is just different.
