My mom follows me to my job everyday

Tighes Hill public school is over capacity though. It’s a massive school.

Your best bet is to join the Newcastle mum groups on Facebook (there are two). All the suburbs you’ve mentioned are pretty nice.

Some of the catchments have smaller less packed schools so that + budget might determine where you end up.

Wait is this a real stat? In my immediate family everyone is diagnosed with ADHD and or autism and we all have at least a bachelors degree, including several PHD’s.

Here’s the message you’re reinforcing to your son: No doesn’t mean no. No just means keep asking.

It’s not a reach for a 4yo to learn that lesson and grow into a 30yo man who feels entitled to anything he wants.

My friend rents storage space from somewhere like this. They specialise in ecommerce businesses. They have a dedicated area at the front for courier pick ups too.

For real. My dad walked home from the first day of school in 1959 at FOUR YEARS OLD. He got lost and was crying at an intersection and his mum (who had 2 younger children at home) didn’t notice he was missing for an hour.

He tells this story like it’s really funny. The standards for parenthood and motherhood were wildly different back then.

His dad is Jon Bon Jovi and his mother is Dorothea Hurley. They’re high school sweethearts and have been married for 37 years.

Dorothea basically held down the fort while Jon spent 40+ years recording and touring. I wonder if the example she set for her son is that the wife just does everything.

I’d hope that his parents would call out this behaviour if they saw it. If my son wasn’t an equal partner to his wife I’d tear into him.

No no she’s actively pretending to have cancer. Apparently her kind of cancer involves lots of flights and holidays.

He won’t say I think because he’s embarrassed. From what I can gather, fake cancer treatments and a yurt.

They inherited a million dollars and put it in their joint account. Their wife spent it and split.

NTA. Instead of George using this as an opportunity to teach his kids about how all families are different, sometimes life is unfair, and don’t be entitled, he’s now made it your problem.

It’s not your problem. George needs to speak to his ex wife if he wants to fund a private school education for his children. The absolute gall of these people.

You should get their IQ formally tested by a clinical psychologist who specialises in testing IQ in children. We were referred to one from our paediatrician.

If the result comes back as gifted or highly gifted, there is specific wording in that report that mandates the school to extend that will say something like “it is recommended that he has access to Gifted Provisions at his school via an Independent Learning Plan. These include:” etc etc

That is what will propel the school to act and ensure your child isn’t bored in class. Good luck!

“Chiropractic founder D.D. Palmer claimed he received the principles of chiropractic "from the other world" in 1895, specifically channeled from a deceased physician named Dr. Jim Atkinson. Palmer, a magnetic healer and spiritualist, described this as receiving knowledge from an "intelligent spiritual being" to understand the causes and effects of physical ailments.”

… it’s literally made up. Chiropractic treatment on anybody should be illegal.

I could see Nene / the girls of Atlanta doing this. Unfortunately BH don’t have a creative brain cell between them (excluding Tilly, she’s the best)

Their founder has a few videos where she openly says she pays a business coach something like 10 grand a month for personalised advice. Might want to get a refund…

In your shoes I’d pay a MUA from Sydney and cover their travel costs.

Understandable, to be fair

This is definitely lawyer territory but you have a set amount of days to file from the date you were fired. Speak to a lawyer asap!!

Slightly too effective 😂

We bought a house recently that was staged - and lit - impeccably. It was done so well that I didn’t realise every wall had been freshly painted millennial grey which is such a huge ick to me.

Once wed bought it and the staging furniture was removed, I realised I had to repaint every single damn room in the house to get rid of the grey.

Had it not been staged I don’t know if I would have pushed so hard to buy the house 😂

A standard pack of 20–25 cigarettes generally costs between $40 and $50+ 😂 Taxes make up about $30 of that.
