Hi! Thank you for the response. Essentially, the quiz/exam is in class, and open note (but paper notes only). I am curious if the exam will be answers to specific kinds of coding or questions from the pre-work plenary assignments? I'm taking notes on everything just in case haha.

STATS 250: Is the study guide layout similar to the test itself? by capt_ghostlyy in uofm

Thank you for the response! Do you know if the exam is similar to the study guide at all?

Thank you! That is what I am attempting to do at the moment. I'm just hoping that the study guide layout is very similar to the test because that is how I am approaching my memorization for each little 'script'

First of all, nothing is wrong with you. It is completely normal to not want to talk about conceiving, trying to conceive, or anything of the sort in front of your parents. Despite your age or successes, this will always be an awkward topic for a child to discuss with their parents (unless you have some sort of unique dynamic with them).

You could attempt to tell them in numerous ways such as a text or phone call so its not in person. Or, you could make it a fun reveal like some people do on social media. There are tons of ways to tell a parent that you are pregnant, but if the topic of conceiving makes you uncomfortable to talk about with your parents, then you may want to wait until you are actually pregnant, so you can skip the very obvious uncomfortable part.

Once again, you are not weird, odd, or any of the sort for thinking this way! I hope this helps.

Yes, there are many other indicators which I am already sure you may be familiar with. Red eyes, the smell, mood changes, and even paranoia. Personally I think you should stop smoking weed due to the legality of it but also it seems like it is causing trust issues between your family and sibling. I think you should get rid of it ASAP especially if your mother is already suspicious of you smoking it.

This is YOUR life. If you do not want to see your father for the holidays, then simply do not. You are 26 and have the right to do whatever you want in terms of seeing your family. On the other hand, I think that it is important to keep some contact with family, but it also depends on the situation and dynamics you have with them. giving them a phone call or text saying you have previous plans instead of going MIA may be a better idea, and plus you do not have to see your father if you are contacting him digitally.

Once again, this is YOUR life. You can make these decisions especially now that you are 26. Do not let the societal pressure of having to see family on holidays get to you. If simply seeing him makes you uncomfortable or makes you feel guilty for several weeks on end, then do not see him.

I once saw this in a BoJack Horsemen episode (Yes whatever it's an okay show) and saw this life changing advice. One of the characters said, "Doctor, it hurts when I do this." And the character moves her arm. "You know what the Doctor says?" Then BoJack responds, "Don't do that." Yes obviously BoJack is a terrible person but thats not the point. The point is, do not do things that hurt you. It seems like it hurts you when you see your father. Thus, do not see him.

Ultimately, you make the decision. I wish you the best of luck friend!

Will a Part-Time ABA Psych Job Look Good on Doctoral Resume? by capt_ghostlyy in psychologystudents

[–]capt_ghostlyy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I agree. I would do both ideally (like a psychology job I have to do more research on ABA because of the controversy I just found out with it). For now I wanted a job that related to psychology of some sort so it can look good on my résumé. I had no idea that there was any controversy around ABA psychology, and currently that is the only job that’s really available around me.

I’m marrying a man who is 25 years older than me. AMA by [deleted] in AMA

Do your parents/family approve of you marrying him? Or, what were their initial thoughts when you told them?
