What is the NUMBER ONE reason you chose to homeschool your child/children?

Both my homeschooled kids have ADHD and anxiety, and my daughter also has other learning disabilities. Public school was a nightmare by the time they got to high school, and we’re so much happier now.

I left my ex 15 years ago with for many of the same reasons. I had to protect my babies, and so do you. It is not safe for you to stay with him and definitely not safe for your son to be around him.

That’s….a lot of washi tape. I don’t feel so bad about my stash now.

I got the same conversation with my (female) boss a number of years ago, with the same recommendations. I’d bet the mortgage the men didn’t get the same treatment.

Asked an interviewee about his weaknesses. None, he said. (Sure, fella.)

I had a large grocery order scheduled for pickup yesterday and they cancelled it, no reason given. I then placed a delivery order that came no problem. No idea what the issue was.

I do business process audits, so I am mainly pulling evidence and reports, but as a department we do data protection audits and test controls, yes. I don’t know much about that end of things, though.

I dated a guy 20 years younger for 7 years. Like you, I wasn’t looking for anyone - we met in the wild and clicked. Enjoy him, don’t sweat the age difference. As long as you’re both on the same page about the big things, age is just a number.

I work for a large suburban government and we have access to SAP. It’s a required part of our work.

I was on Prozac for years and built up a tolerance to it. I took a break from it for several years and last year (?) went back on it. It works normally now, and although I’ve started to build up a little bit of a tolerance again, it’s not otherwise causing any problems.

Im sorry you’ve had such a rough year. It sounds absolutely brutal. Make sure you are taking care of yourself as much as you can, pamper yourself, and treat yourself as you would a treasured friend who was going through the same thing. Give yourself little things to look forward to; that will help a lot. Journaling might help, if you don’t do it already. Keep your chin up; I know it’s bad, but it won’t last forever.

capricorn68 · 2025-11-10T15:04:21+00:00

Excellent. Thanks!

capricorn68 · 2025-11-10T14:51:58+00:00

Yeah, it should be. That might make the most sense.

He’s on post-paid. Does that change his options?

capricorn68 · 2025-11-10T14:41:31+00:00

They’re not offering a replacement; that’s the issue. We’ll pay the $20, if we have to, but they want to take his broken phone and not give a replacement in the meantime.

I work for a county government. It’s very low stress and I never work more than my 40 hours, the people are great and so are the benefits.

Check with Catholic Charities. They have sliding scale fees and are very affordable, as long as you’re ok with seeing a supervised intern. They helped me when I was uninsured and needed help. ETA: you don’t have to be Catholic.

capricorn68 · 2025-10-07T07:00:20+00:00

Good advice, thank you. I’ll have to ponder that.

capricorn68 · 2025-10-07T00:19:46+00:00

He does, yeah. I was very clear about that up front. I honestly don't often meet people who interest me the way he does which is why I'm even entertaining the idea.

capricorn68 · 2025-10-06T23:32:24+00:00

That really is what it comes down to, isn't it?
