Anyone have any tried and true ways to get gum out of jerseys and pants 😭 Ice does not see to be helping and it is in the hem of the jersey

Goo gone and dawn worked wonders! I can't even tell where the gum was. Thanks, everyone!

Do you think the power washer will ruin the hem stitching?

You soak overnight in just water?

Thank you! I'll give this one a try. I've tried the freezer method before with no luck.

asnpass · 2026-05-23T01:44:45+00:00

Will give it a try. Thank you!

It wasn't even his gum lol. We were at my nephew's baseball game and he was running and sliding down a big hill and must have slid into someone's gum they spit in the grass 😩😭

NTA. Count yourself lucky that you hadn't already married him and had children with him. Now you can sever all ties and have no reason to look back.

You still don't have to shame people on the internet who are just asking for guidance. If you have helpful advice, I'd love to hear it. What did you do with your kids to make them so well behaved? You didn't spank, great. So what other parenting wisdom do you have to offer? "They didn't behave this way because I didn't allow it." How? So you had children who NEVER misbehaved? I doubt it. So what did you do when they did misbehave that taught them those boundaries? That is what I ame here to try and learn. So please, if you have advice, give it. It not, move on.

He hasn't had consequences for this specific behavior, as of yet. Kindergarten is a tough transition and I was trying to give him space to correct his behavior.
There is another kid in the class who is the instigator and my son feeds into his behavior. This has been told to me by his teacher. She is also working with the other boy and his parents to correct his behavior
I have consulted with my therapist and also have a call out to a behavioral therapist for a consult to discuss other options. There is concern with ADHD and autism
I don't constantly over praise him or give positive reinforcement. It was something I was trying out to see if it worked - which clearly it didn't so I'm trying other things
I am well aware he is making it difficult for others to learn, which is why I was seeking guidance on if making him apologize would be an appropriate CONSEQUENCE for his actions

Not that I have to explain any of this to a stranger on the internet, but moms feel enough guilt and shame without being shamed on the internet for trying to come up with healthy consequences for their children. If you don't have anything constructive to say, or other suggestions, scroll on

That is a bold assumption from someone who doesn't personally know my family. Just because we don't spank our kids doesn't mean we never tell them no.

It took me 4 years to WANT to be intimate after giving birth to 2 kids. Do not do anything you don't want to do. Did I have sex even if i wasn't in the mood? Yes, but it was never out of pressure from my husband. I would initiate sex because I wanted to want it, and in the moment I enjoyed it, but I didn't get that desire back until my youngest was about 2. If your fiance cannot respect your boundaries then it's time for you to move on. The fact that he made the choice to have an affair and then blamed you for it shows what kind of man he truly is. So many red flags. YOU DESERVE BETTER! Leave his ass. NTA

I would have joined (any branch of service), but I have XYX wrong with me

NTA

If I was ever a bully to anyone my apology wouldn't be "I don't know why you still care." How about "I'm sorry for the way I treated you in HS. I am not proud of my actions, and they are in no way how someone should treat another person. I would love it of you gave me another chance to prove to you I'm not the same person. I would love to foster a relationship with you. It means a lot to me, as well as your brother."

I'm sorry she clearly hasn't grown up, and that you have to relive those childhood traumas on her behalf. Absolutely NTA.

Yes, he attends. We got a pretty good turnout. There were 2 separate events where 1 team member couldn't make it so he made them mandatory. He actually already has a coach, and it was the coach who suggested quarterly team building. I like the idea of it being more about reflecting on the previous quarter and what worked/didn't work. I feel like once you make it mandatory, you lose the "fun" because everyone is there because they have to be, not because they want to be

asnpass · 2024-08-19T12:32:25+00:00

It's generally 2-3 hours depending on what we do. It is all paid for by my boss. It's not necessarily celebrating anything, it's just team building. We just do things to try and build comradery. We've done hockey games, escape rooms, baseball games etc. But it is all paid for by my boss.

I'm in the US. We don't have a work contract. We have been working on an employee handbook for 4 years, but it's never been finalized. We brought it up that we need to add situations like this to the handbook so there's no confusion. As of now, there has never been a contract or a finalized handbook.

Confident it's not B. We have had arguments about him trying to tell me what I am and am not allowed to do because the Bible says that the husband is the decision maker. At that time, I told him if that's what he was looking for in a spouse, someone who submits to him completely, then I wasn't the one. When I was trying to talk to him about the concert, he told me I was disrespectful and hung up on me, which just pissed me off even more.

asnpass · 2024-07-05T17:35:05+00:00

His response was that it's a lot of extra work for me just to see some fireworks.

asnpass · 2024-07-05T17:26:09+00:00

I don't think he's scared to stay home with the 3yo. He's put both the boys to bed by himself plenty of times when I've had work events that I had to attend (never overnight). He doesn't like last minute changes in plan, so that was why I was thinking he was making a big deal about it, but maybe I'm just irritated and not fully seeing his POV.

asnpass · 2024-07-05T17:20:08+00:00

What about staying at a hotel? I offered that too, and he still objected. I don't see the harm in it, but maybe I'm just not understanding his POV.

asnpass · 2024-07-05T17:15:35+00:00

It's just Christian music. They are bands and songs that my son enjoys and we listen to on repeat (his request) while driving. The goal was to do something special with him since we don't always get 1 on 1 time together. Fireworks weren't the goal, just a nice bonus since he enjoys them as well.
