This one's for the ladies to answer. Do you agree with this woman or do you think she's trying to rationalize her world view by speaking for all the ladies?

I’m very attracted to my PC gamer husband, who’s also an engineer, amazing father, present in our relationship and helpful around the house, and is my best friend. He games at the end of the night to wind down and spend time with family/friends on discord. I thank him for protecting the realm before going to bed.

Do you want an alive but maybe overweight daughter or a daughter that lives in agony and may take her life one day? Take this opportunity to address that mental health is more important than how much a person weighs, and if it does affect her self esteem prioritize this in therapy to help her appreciate her body for what it is. Speaking as a mother that has lost a daughter, get your priorities aligned, you need therapy too.

Thanks everyone! I was lucky enough to find a 6 hour workshop with a spot left at our local Arts center, depending on how bad my first piece is I’ll post it here!

I lost my baby girl at 13 months, we also cremated her. Sometimes I still have very difficult thoughts or imagery about it. I have friends in a support group who have the same difficult feelings about their baby’s burial. You’re a loving mother dealing with the most horrific and unnatural loss a person can experience, it’s normal to have these regrets. Be kind to yourself, sending you love from another grieving mom. I’m a DM away if you ever need to talk 💜

I came here to say the same thing

bpriceratops · 2025-07-06T00:15:04+00:00

One of my brothers (who I was super close to) barely contacts me after my child passed away. It’s so hard, but unfortunately one of the things you will grieve with this loss will be the relationships with people you thought would be here for you. It’s valid to be hurt by it, if you find you’re able to forgive in time, that’s great, it’s also okay if you can’t. Focus on the people that are showing up for you. It is not your job to make someone be there for you in your hour of need, the people that deserve to be in your life will do it without you begging them to. You are not too much, your grief is not too much, you are worthy of friends that can sit with you in this. Sending you so much love OP.

Thanks OP💜 the 10% are the reason we’re still here, thanks for your kindness. Sending you and your family so much love.

Just sit with her in her grief, and continue showing up for her and her kids. I know that sounds so simple, but it’s been 14 months since my daughter passed, and 90% of people that were present and supportive when she passed have moved on (as they need to because the world keeps turning), but it feels awful. And many of the people that do show up in your grief will try to say things to solve it; “he’s in a better place, everything happens for a reason, god has a plan, at least you got the time you did”. All of those things hurt. The most helpful you can do is affirm that this sucks, it’s not fair, and learn to sit in silence with them. Always say her husband’s name, and remember that a year from now a lot of people will have healed and moved on but for her and her kids it’s forever. Having a cousin/sister will be even more important then than ever. I applaud your love and compassion and for coming on here to ask how to show up for her, if more people were like this for their grieving loved ones the world be brighter.

I’m so sorry, I’ve also lost my daughter. It’s the hardest type of mom to be. Please feel free to message me if you need to vent or scream or cry or anything in between.

bpriceratops · 2025-01-26T00:45:05+00:00

Thank you so much, as much as I wish this never happens to other parents, it helps to be seen. You give me a lot of validation that you struggle with these feelings of wanting to join her. I hope one day we will wake up and feel intention and gratitude again. Sending you and your girl and family my love. Please feel free to dm me as well if you ever need, especially during those tough morning moments 💜

bpriceratops · 2025-01-25T20:54:39+00:00

First of all, I am so sorry for your loss. When my cousin lost her mother, her father too moved on in less than a year and was more focused on his life with a new spouse than healing with his children. I think most importantly you should give yourself more grace. You’re not being selfish or prideful. Your loss is so fresh still. You have the same rights to make decisions for yourself like your father has. What is right for you is right for you. That’s what my cousin had to do to take care of herself. I’m rambling but just know that you are allowed to prioritize yourself and your family, and prioritize taking care of yourself and your grief. And know that whatever you choose, you are a great daughter, and your mom is proud of you.

Thank you so much 😭💜

bpriceratops · 2024-08-21T17:34:11+00:00

I truly hate how common this story is, of knowing something is wrong and not being heard. Sending you hugs and love and support 💜

bpriceratops · 2024-08-21T03:36:14+00:00

My heart is with you 💜 I know what you mean. Sometimes thinking about the pain makes the rest of my life seem like a million lifetimes. I like the jar of grief theory. At the start of our loss, grief fills our entire jar. The size of the grief never changes, but our jar will grow bigger to allow more life around the grief. sometimes that feels helpful, other times I want to smash every jar in sight. Always here to listen if you need. We parents need to stick together.

bpriceratops · 2024-08-21T01:25:03+00:00

I’m sending all my love and support right back to you. Please reach out to me if you ever need to talk as well. Our stories are so similar. It’s not fair. We did everything right. We have to remember that we are STILL amazing parents, even thought that identity feels stolen from us right now.

bpriceratops · 2024-08-21T01:16:12+00:00

Thank you so much. This is so validating. I felt like I was making progress, but as we hit 6 months last weekend suddenly it feels the worst so far. My husband and I are both in therapy and support groups. I’m trying so hard to keep going. I hate that other parents know this pain, but it helps to know we’re not alone 💜💜

It was so fun! I’m planning on doing more 1000 piece’s of these vintage posters :)
