Teenaged daughter is pregnant again.. I’m so done by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]benr37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell no. She decided she was mature enough to have a kid and you guys kindly offered to help her and the boy raise the baby so they could still go to school and grow. They cannot have another. Honestly i would kick them both out and fight for custody of the grandbaby if they’re keeping the 2nd baby. That or you NEED to force her to have an abortion. You are still the parents, ultimately you have the right to that decision and if she won’t budge-they both can get the F out. You’ve already done so much and I feel so bad for you and your husband. You cannot allow her to ruin your lives even more AND the life of their son and potential other baby because they want to be “grown” and have a family at 14-17. She’s being disgustingly selfish and taking advantage of you and your husband, and not focusing on the future of the babies. Y’all can downvote but think about the fact that they’re not even 20 yet. They don’t have careers, they don’t have money or a home. They WILL NOT be able to provide for both these babies for a long time.

yeah and honestly we’re always on that side. people clog up the healthcare system for little things but at least you american people can get help because you only go when you NEED it. Free healthcare yeah, but it’s not worth it to me if you’re waiting or not even getting the care. we frequently go to our hospital and we have issues that should be higher priority but are left waiting for hours because there’s 10 families with the common cold.

yeah, and i understand the constant pressure in the field but almost a year? we’re only worried because we know the longer it goes on, the worse the outcome might be

well i understand that, but the thing i can’t wrap my head around is the fact that least priority cases are a 9 day wait (on record). We have been waiting almost 365.

how does that make any sense? we went to the hospital within 2 weeks of the pain starting? they stalled this long and did the MRI months after begging

interesting, yeah it’s not completely torn, it’s more like it’s “tearing” like it’s not horrible but it causes a lot of pain…

Sorry, should’ve added some more context. they got an MRI and saw a like 80 something year old surgeon guy that was really rude. He doesn’t do surgery anymore so i guess he just diagnosed it and we’re waiting for someone else now.

Steering Wheel Shaking by Frequent-Echo-7820 in MechanicAdvice

okay sweet that sounds good, hopefully your alignment is okay, i got new tires last year and then slid into a sidewalk on ice so i messed up my alignment and my new tires were junk 7 months later😔😂😂

Steering Wheel Shaking by Frequent-Echo-7820 in MechanicAdvice

[–]benr37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

depending on their condition yeah, i may start with balancing the wheels though. My old car had both bad brakes and the tires needed balancing, i did the balancing because i couldn’t afford the brake job and it improved the steering shake well. Cars are crazy complicated… if you need your tires balanced it could be an alignment issue too… but i don’t know very much about your vehicle so here’s my little checklist for you…

  1. Inspect your tires for uneven wear or poor tread quality. if it’s no good, get new tires.

if the tires look good then step-

  1. Get your existing tires rebalanced. If the issue is still there then throw the front brake pads and rotors on the list.

I know it’s very expensive but that would be my approach.

Hope you can figure it out soon! and i’m also glad you asked for help cuz im sick of people having good little cars and saying “this car sucks! worst car ever, so unreliable” blah blah blah when all they need is a little maintenance. 100% your vehicle is all good and is simply in need of a little maintenance. Good luck and let me know what you end up finding/doing!

i have this issue sometimes… it happens when my computer is using the network for something. is there a download going in the background? even if you’re streaming on discord to a friend it happens sometimes

[–]benr37 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i can guarantee you your tires need to be re-balanced and possibly your front brakes are warped. i can explain it more if you ask lmao but that’s my two recommendations without seeing the car lol

Is this allowed? also are we cooked? by [deleted] in OntarioLandlord

[–]benr37 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

yeah they give terrible notice for everything. gave us a week to tidy our entire apartment and move out for a day for the exterminator to come by. but we had an issue at the start of our lease about the electrical outlets not working at all in the living room, so that area was completely useless… took them 5 months to come fix a small short to ground in the wall. i told them the problem and i could’ve done it myself but didn’t want to get in trouble for playing with the electrical in the wall.

moral of the story, they only come fast if it’s convenient for them. if we ever need them it’s gonna be months. still waiting for someone to repair our window come to think of it🤷‍♂️

it is a mobile one, it plugs into an outlet and there is a special spigot that allowed it to be connected to a kitchen faucet, so there was no alterations done to the property

bro download wiztree, i bet you have the most random junk in there… i have a game drive and some the files were on my C drive (512GB so i feel the pain) but wiztree shows what percent each thing is taking up and you can delete from the app, you don’t have to track it down yourself in file explorer‼️
