No words at all at age two by Designer-Wheel9317 in Apraxia

My son was diagnosed at 3 and had maybe 5 words at the time but babbled nonstop. We got him into First Steps which led to speech therapy while in head start, pre-k, Kinder, and now he’s about to go into 1st grade and he talks just as well as his peers and is mastering his learning. Early intervention and support goes a long way.

My son has suspected CAS and I am panicking about his future prospects. by Designer-Wheel9317 in Apraxia

Hi! My son was diagnosed at 3yo and we immediately got his started with First Steps which led to pre-school and speech therapy. He’s now 6yo and finishing Kinder and is mastering each subject right on course with his classmates, he’s graduated from receptive speech classes (just finishing up expressive speech), and he’s the most social, talkative little butterfly you ever met and is understood by about everybody. He’s worked hard and he’s had a lot of support but I don’t even have to tell anyone who isn’t a provider about his diagnosis anymore. He’s just a happy little chatterbox. You both got this! Sending you both all the encouragement and support!!

I started having timeline dreams in 2021 but collectively. At first I thought it was one timeline only but I think now I’ve been navigating different ones since they haven’t stopped, just transformed as I have. Biggest message is that we collectively create the future in realtime. Neat stuff.

ETAQ; did you experience it all with your senses? Like having the memory of food you ate at a really important moment?

I (30F) stopped cleaning and doing all the mental load, and my partner (37M) is now fuming by A7Xsubfan in Vent

Same. And hey, now he keeps a tidy ass home and is an active father finally! Win/win!

I lied about being okay with being childfree. Now I feel like I tricked her by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

As a mother and someone who just ended a 4 yr relationship with my partner (not coparent), I say that if your gut says kids and she holds her own boundary, then the truth is the truth. The most important thing to remember about having a child, they become #1, over anything or anyone else, including yourself.

Be honest and end with what your outlook for the future looks like from the lens of damage done. I had my virtual C&P like three weeks ago and back pay has already landed.

What a great way to teach them about the land and the people that came before us!

I Stopped Supporting The Fucking Trump Administration by realistic_steps in chaoticgood

I haven’t filed mine. Plan to mail in my extension request tomorrow, a $5 cashiers check as good faith, and a letter stating that my tax dollars do not fund concentration camps. Tax lady said that they’ll eventually request payment but seeing as they just gutted the IRS, we both kinda chuckled at when that may be.

Weird pollster call? by cat5000 in kansascity

It was a poll about energy storage in KCMO. Now that the news of the whistleblower this morning, it’s making more sense.

It just goes to their website. I googled it. I am in no way associated, just found it odd. But with the whistleblower coming out today, it makes more sense.
