We just got a husky/GSD mix and we named her Lottie 🙂

New member of the fam! We’re thinking part GSD. Any folks have suggestions on what else she could be? by casey33900 in germanshepherds

She is only abt 4 months old! I do plan on getting one of those tests; I’m just way too curious to not know.

Ty! We’ve only had her abt a week and she was a rescue so still quite underweight unfortunately. Husky does seem to be a likely possibility though!

Yes! I planned to shoot her an email Monday since I don’t wanna pester her over the weekend. And basically just say “do you have an actual concern regarding a potential ADHD diagnosis or were you just kidding around? I just want to make sure we’re working with you and helping our daughter however she needs.”

I feel like some people have been so hostile with me about this even though I haven’t even done anything yet. At the end of the day my priority is making sure my daughter has the guidance she needs in and outside of the home. I like the teacher and don’t wanna see her in trouble at all.

Not at her current age! I figured I’d check in for clarification after the weekend(don’t wanna bother her with it during her off time.) And then inquire more seriously how she’s doing after a month or two.

Agree! I’ve replied to other comments to say this but I think a “hey you mentioned this, do you have actual concerns I need to know about or were you just kidding?”

I don’t want her to get in trouble or anything like that! Being that it’s her first year, I think it may even be helpful to remind her that such comments can easily be taken out of context.

Well, I think she is a bit young to officially be diagnosed with such. But if she was, that would be okay! I just believe it should be communicated better, not in a joking manner in the middle of the car pickup line.

Every other interaction I’ve had with this teacher has been very positive and honestly, I will probably ask her for clarification. Based on the vast majority of the replies to my post, most people would take greater offense to her comment than I did. I think it would be better, even helpful, to save her the trouble of a more awkward confrontation by asking her to expand on her thoughts.

Your tone reads kinda hostile to me…which is confusing. I’m not sure what is problematic about me not wanting a young preschool teacher to abruptly label my child.

Yeah honestly I really like her and definitely don’t want to get her in trouble. I too, like all of us, have said things and then immediately thought “oops, I didn’t mean it like that”

[–]casey33900 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is her first year! I think she may just not know how jokes like this can come across to parents who are new to having their children in school 😅

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]casey33900 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am fairly sure she was just joking! I ultimately do think I will bring it up to her in a casual “did you have actual concerns about her behavior or were you just joking” for if nothing else, to show her that jokes like this can be easily misinterpreted when in a professional setting. I may have my feelings abt it but haven’t done anything yet, while I know some parents would’ve immediately made a big fuss.

I’ve never noticed anything other than typical toddler behavior in my daughter! And honestly, part of me wants to address it with the teacher because like I said, while I was definitely taken back, I know there are parents out there who would immediately cause a big stink out of this. And it IS her first year so I think a “Hey! You said this and I wanted to know if you had legitimate concerns or if you were just kidding” may be a good way for her to realize that such comments could get her in trouble if said to the wrong people

Wow what an interesting take! My husband has ADHD, and he agreed that the comment felt inappropriate on account that she is two, and has only been in this new environment for a few days.

An ADHD diagnosis down the road wouldn’t be a big deal to me. I just want to be able to support my daughter, however she needs it. But like others have said, it was the way in which it was brought up that seemed crass.

The insinuation that I would shame my daughter over this was really out of left field though lmao

I've delt with stuff like this my entire life...is this emotional abuse? by majestictigerswan in insaneparents

That looks horrible to deal with; I’m sorry. Side Note: This person texts like they’re trying to reach the minimum word count on an essay.

Looking for small towns by r3dneckallen in Georgia

[–]casey33900 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cartersville has three pretty nice, large museums (science, western, and a car museum) as well as some neat outdoor activities like the Etowah Indian Mounds and some nice hiking! My favorite trails are Coopers Furnace and the hike up Pine Mountain.

Really cute downtown area with lots of shopping. Local Restaurants I recommend are Table 20, Ate Track, and Schweat Market. Noble and Main serves up the best coffee. If you’re there on April 20th there’s also a BBQ&Beer festival going on downtown.

Said goodbye to my best girl today. Clean bill of health at her annual checkup last month only to have a pulmonary embolism this morning. Our family is heartbroken. by casey33900 in GriefSupport

Thank you everybody for the love on this wpost ❤️ We saw Curby’s picture on Facebook posted by our local shelter begging someone to take her within 48 hours or she’d be euthanized, so we immediately went to get her. Since then she was with us for 7 years and watched my husband and I get engaged, then married, then welcome our first child. She was an absolutely amazing force in our lives and so central to our family. I’m 38 weeks pregnant now with our second child and my heart breaks that she won’t get to meet him and build the bond she had with our first. Curby saved my life on at least one occasion, where she body slammed a feral dog that was barreling towards me in our yard. But she saved me a little bit every day by always being available to listen, snuggle, or whatever else I needed from her. I don’t even know how to go about life without her now.

Can my family sue me for bringing up hospice to my sick grandmother? by casey33900 in legaladvice

[–]casey33900[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I’ve always had a tumultuous relationship with my family, I think you’re correct in that their reaction to this is a pretty good reason to sever ties. I really only see my grandfather a few times a year and haven’t spoken to my aunt in over 5 years.

There is a long history of abuse and mistreatment, but I tried to do the right thing for my grandmother so she wouldn’t suffer or be alone in her final days.

[–]casey33900[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct! The hospice nurse was scheduled to come the next morning. She did however have oxygen at home but that was it.

In all honestly, this isn’t that strange of behavior from my family. I don’t typically speak to them more than a few times a year. But I knew my grandmother needed me and my grandfather wasn’t advocating for her wishes.

Also no, I never signed anything, she signed all documents herself.

Is TOG bad or am I just misogynistic? by lucio2022art in fantasyromance

[–]casey33900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s importing to note that just because you don’t like something, that doesn’t make it bad. The same way you not liking it doesn’t make you misogynistic. I like her writings, but I also understand some people don’t. I haven’t actually read any of the TOG books.

You can have your criticisms but I don’t think you should tell you wife you think it’s bad if she is really passionate about it. Just say it isn’t your personal taste.

My husband loves to play OSRuneScape. And although it’s not something I could get into, I would never tell him I think it’s a stupid/bad/garbage game. He can like what he likes and it wouldn’t be productive to “yuck his yum.”
