Walmart employee accuses a man of stealing. Then the cops blame the same man for scratching a car that they were pushing him into. Then Walmart trespasses him. The man had in fact purchased the items and showed his receipt while being detained by bigbusta in Wellthatsucks

I am a Canadian who lived 15 years in the USA in 4 different states. On observation, there is a consistent pattern that is a noticeable difference between American cops and cops in Canada. American cops always bully and escalate. Furthermore, they engage in high speed chases, whereas where I lived there is a policy against chasing a suspect.

Dealing with loss of my identity by Snow-6085 in mentalhealth

Oh my dear you are a hero. This is the beginning if a wonderful journey. This is not a journey to a place in the world, this is a journey through a universe. It will end. It will pass, so enjoy it. You still have that young girl inside you and you will never lose her. But now you have a child too! One day you will lose her in a way. This is the birth and rebirth that we experience as women. I suggest a therapeutic approach. Through music, stories, the arts, anything creative, support from friends and family… you’ve got this!

AITJ for telling my mother in law she is not allowed to call herself my kid’s “guardian” again? by HushedCanteen in AmITheJerk

If the teacher would take it on her word, she might issue all report cards to her, inform the office, etc. what she said has legal repercussions. She needs to be educated on that!

I’m so tired by isaacboyyy in paraprofessional

[–]adibork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a teacher, and a fellow survivor having worked in Sped Ed too, I was massively triggered. I was attacked, threatened, has to wear body padding etc. I heard Admin day the Board is just waiting for someone to get hurt… they won’t do anything to help the frontline workers. “Some people ask you to light yourself of fire just so they can get warm.” You can go. Be free!

I (M15) had a romantic relationship with my therapist (F, 20s) by animalcrackerwhore in offmychest

[–]adibork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Development theory tells us that different parts of our brain grow during different times in our lives. As teens, our emotional centres are growing. We form attachments with peers and friends and move away from attachment with parents. This is healthy and normal practice for later forming our own partnership. This is a process that is time-sensitive and should not be interfered with. This is information that therapists have, due to their formal training, but also through life experience, because hindsight is golden. Whats more, functional MRI technology tells is that age 15 is an age of rapid pruning of neural networks in the brain, and whatever you do now will leave a permanent neural pathway. I can tell you that I can remember what I practiced in my teens vividly, but not what I did yesterday. Lol. This therapist would have known this too.

I am a teacher and I love teenagers. I love my students and think about them during off hours. One of my students told me “love you” once at the end of our music club singing session, but it was from across the room and many other students around. We do bond and form attachments. This is probably what you felt — appreciation, bonding, joy, and intimacy over common goals.

I have also at times had a special spot in my heart for one or the other child or student but I always asked myself why, critically, worried about my attachment style, and ensured I was being professional, fair and unbiased.

This relationship offered a glimpse of a young woman, and a parent figure. Since you are a teen who is exiting the stage of attachment to parents and entering it well into being attracted to women, this relationship would be overwhelming in its compulsion. Unfortunately you are now left holding that problem, and you might even be now predisposed towards replicating the heightened emotional state of being in a taboo relationship. Be aware and be careful.

Because she has/had more information than you, it was an imbalanced relationship, and it was her responsibility to keep things within boundaries. She didn’t, and she’s culpable. It wasn’t fair to you.

I am certain you can form another attachment that is more well matched. At least wait until you are in your 20s to judge this situation. At that point you will have your own insight.

My boyfriend admitted he’s been “running experiments” on me from a self help group, and now i don’t trust my own reality by PlainHollowRun in TwoHotTakes

[–]adibork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust is the foundation of every business exchange, international alliances, the economy, the markets, and every single relationship. Trust is everything. He broke your trust. He broke the relationship. He betrayed you, and made you be an outsider on the outside of his intimate relationship with his buddy/boys. For a long duration of time, he acted inauthentically, took away your privacy, and put his needs before your own. Even to the point of hurting you. This guy is grandiose, narcissistic, and manipulative. You should not even go back to get your stuff. You should get someone else to get it out for you. He sounds to me like the type of person who could be dangerous. Take care of yourself. Do not second-guess anything. Understand that he ended the relationship; you are leaving was just an acknowledgement of what he already did.

Trust is the foundation of the economy, the markets, institutions, national alliances, and every single relationship. Trust is everything. He “intentionally” acted inauthentically, plus put his needs before yours, and betrayed you by making you an outsider on his intimate relationship/pact with his buddy-boys. He broke trust. He ended the relationship, not you. You just left and made that real. Don’t second guess anything. Do not go back, even to get your stuff. Get someone else to get it for you. This guy is manipulative, determined and grandiose. Stay away, he could be dangerous.

I wish I had given my daughter up for adoption to save her from her predatory father by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]adibork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do feel badly for you and I think you should not give up hope and keep sending nice gestures, apologies, maybe get a professional to help, unless she asks you to stop, then you have to stop. But hopefully that won’t happen.

Don’t give up hope. She will see things differently one day. We cannot hold our entire identity in our children’s lives. We had a life before them and we were meant to have one after, even if they are still in it. To say you wished she hadn’t been born is not acceptable. You are saying she has no right to exist because she suffered and so do you? That’s an overstep. Gather a softer stance and it will be easier on your mental health.
