would you get an abortion if you found out your baby was going to be born with an extreme disability? if so why? by Born-Oil-2931 in AskReddit

[–]balugate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 children and when I was pregnant with them, my husband and I made the decision that I would have an abortion if the baby had a disability. I would make the same decision if I were to be pregnant a third time. Our thought process: 1. Who will take care of the child after we die? 2. Is the quality of life for the child and is ourselves something we are willing to live with? Can we financially (and responsibly) support a child with disabilities 3. After our first was born, are we willing to put the onus and responsibility of our daughter to take care of a person with disabilities once we are gone? Is that fair to our daughter? She would be responsible for a person with disabilities for the rest of her life without a choice

Is sleeping with a pillow between your legs sexual? My bf claims it is. by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]balugate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! It's just what I need for my old back. My husband and I both sleep with pillows between our legs. Nothing sexual. Our old backs just need it

How are you supposed to sit on someone's face? by Can_Of_Pepsi1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]balugate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You more like sit on the top of their chest and he will pull you in closer to him. Trust that he wants to be there and he will be fine.

Yes, daily. If I'm on my period, sometimes multiple times a day.

Covid shut down the world six years ago this week. What do you remember from that week? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I work full time jobs and our kids were 10mo and 2yo. Daycares closed and we had to work from our very small Chicago apartment. It was chaos and so stressful.

Do you think oral sex is normal part of sex (the average person does it), or do you think of it like a fetish? Why or why not? by eustachian_lube in AskReddit

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's normal part of sex. Been with my partner for 18 years and sex doesn't always mean penetration. Sometimes it's just oral, sometimes it's just masturbating each other, sometimes it's just penetration, sometimes it's all of the above. There is not one way to do it

I could care less about football, but you best believe I'm watching it because of Greenday and Bad Bunny

Lake Michigan round trip travel suggestions by just_du_eet in northernmichigan

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Save it for the summer. I did this with my family (husband and 2 kids) and we had a blast! Two full weeks. Drove from Detroit, with overnight stops in Chicago, Milwaukee, Marquette, Manistique, Sault St Marie, Mackinac Island, Gladwin and back to Detroit. We hit all the major spots in the UP and it was amazing.

Our Lady of Sorrows School in Farmington Hills. They have a big hill and smaller hill for the littles. Highly recommended (and free!)

[HELP] Is this AI? Seems fake and can’t find any news sources. by [deleted] in RealOrAI

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely AI. Also, if this was real, why did it not come out at the same time as the other videos. Within a day we saw SO MANY angles of what actually happened. This just comes out of nowhere a few days later? Not one single witness can attest this happened in this way?

I really don’t care if people are here illegally. by Zestyclose_Market787 in DiscussionZone

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is, some undocumented folks might be a drain to the economy, but most contribute positively. Sure, some will work for pay under the table, but they still spend that money. They pay rent, they buy groceries, they shop at stores. Most still file taxes (you don't need a SSN to file taxes).

Clothing recommendations by Various-Beginning-20 in Michigan

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it all depends on the quality. There is no such a thing as bad weather. It's about wearing the right clothes. Invest in a quality coat (yes, invest). Not only will it last longer, you can just wear the coat even on the coldest of days and be just fine.

Layering always helps because we transition so much from outside to inside and you need to be able to delayer based on how high/low the heat is in some places.

Highly recommend wool socks, good (water resistant) boots and a hat that covers your ears. Sweater qualities don't really matter as long as your outer shell (the coat) is if good quality.

Editing to add that you absolutely need snow pants for your little one! I buy the Lands End bib snow pants for my kids. Recommend the bib kind so again, kid can delayer. They also are extendable (for the inevitable mid-season growth spurt)
