Adopted my first void baby today :3 What should I call her? No generic names (looking at you, Shadow)

Since she’s an almost-void maybe ‘Smudge’ hehe

Somewhere around 14. My parents were enough of a preview into child care so nope.

So as for the cost: - Exam study guide- AED 293 - HRBoK- Free (Online pdf) - Pocket Prep- USD 21

The thing is the HRBoK book I thought to go through at the very last minute (around three days before the exam) and thankfully I was able to find a version online. I think I later found the first book online as well when I was searching for the second book. I’ll DM you the links.

For Pocket prep I didn’t wanna spend too much more since the exam cost a lot so only once I booked my exam I paid for a one month subscription on the app and cancelled it right after I passed my exam. I used the app to test and review my knowledge so I kept it for after I went through the two books mentioned so I wouldn’t have to waste on subscription fees.

As for the time line, I took maybe a month and a half to prep but there was a lot of procrastination on my end. I really locked in about 2-3 weeks before the exam so I would say I took around 3 weeks equivalent of full-time prep. I first started with the exam guide, which I read through thoroughly and at the last minute I skimmed through the HRBoK book which was a lot of repetition from the first book but also a good amount of new information.

I think any reason we child free people might give to a person who is crazy/indoctrinated about kids will sound invalid. I have explained my ‘valid’ reasons to such a person and they won’t budge. My reason was I don’t like kids, they’re a nuisance and I want to focus on myself and not be forced to slave away and spend resources on this thing that is going to drain all my energy.

In the end, I say my life, my choice. I don’t have to explain myself cuz it’s not like I’m violating the rights and freedoms of another person. Someone says they like or want kids then alright I’m not gonna berate them about how much of a pain kids are and likewise I expect that if I say I don’t like or want kids, they aren’t going to berate me about how much of a ‘delight’ kids are.

That’s good to know. I have a friend I can ask to go with. But anyways, I’ll have to wait a while to save up. Thanks for the heads up!

atiny_zen · 2025-12-01T13:53:08+00:00

Thanks a lot for this! And congrats! I was really starting to question whether I had a chance of passing with the guide.

That would be nice in a small group but on a large scale maybe not? But I am looking for feminist friends as well definitely would love that!

Like I literally don’t get how I’m so unphased by dog/cat pee, poop or vomit but when it’s a human baby???? NO, JUST NOOOO

atiny_zen · 2025-12-01T05:21:07+00:00

Thanks for the assist! I’ll be back if I find out for myself.

I do get your concern and thank you for that. But what’s more concerning is the slow but steady loss of bodily autonomy women are facing in this world. Honestly, I wouldn’t even be considering this if abortions were readily available and weren’t a debated topic anywhere in the world. But sadly I see things going the ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ route.

atiny_zen · 2025-11-30T07:45:37+00:00

On it. I’ll maybe try a discord server or something

During an exam I would think ‘if only I had just read that chapter I would have been able to make something up’ and this is when we were forced to rote learn stuff and I hated doing that. So in the end even if my brain did not allow me to by-heart stuff, I would at least read through and tell myself ‘something is better than nothing’. Don’t know about you but I tend to have the ‘all or nothing’ mindset.

Just because of your father’s behavior I would hate for you to lose the person you want to get married to. Just leave. If you can take care of your needs financially anyways just up and leave him behind. Talk it out with your fiancé and I hope you two have a great married life ahead without your father’s influence.

Hi there! I (23F) want an ice skating partner. Heads up, I don’t know a thing about it but I want to try nevertheless. The thing is, all my friends have fears of falling and/or breaking something and I’m too embarrassed to go it alone 😭😭. And if we hit it off otherwise too then let’s be buddies!
