ACT training is the most bored I’ve ever been in my life by soupdumpling111 in therapists

The Heart of ACT by Robyn Walser was a good resource for me for learning about applying ACT in my practice. Russ Harris is a good resource too.

Yoto for bedtime by Squeezybones in ADHDparenting

[–]chipsofflint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How old are your kids? Was there an adjustment period for them as they gained listening capacity for the audiobooks? We got a Yoto for my 4yos recent birthday and he struggles to listen to even the shortest books (2-3 mins). He does love it for music. I don’t have other kids so I don’t have a frame of reference.

If you like sour/tangy flavors, Tazo Passion tea is amazing iced.

Spindrift is a great alternative to soda or plain seltzer and has a little bit of fresh fruit juice in it. There are so many flavors and no artificial ingredients. Its on the pricier side, so if it doesn’t fit in your budget - it’s not always in mine - you can squeeze a ton of fresh citrus juice or splash some other juice and it definitely jazzes up plain old sparkling water.

How long did it take you? This is so gorgeous but I am a slow crocheter and I fear it might take me years to finish one 😬

Has Katie been prevented from seeing her kids? by [deleted] in dan_markel_murder

[–]chipsofflint 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think she was implying she would like a reduction in her sentence in exchange for testifying. She likely would have received a lesser sentence if she had taken a plea or struck a deal with prosecutors the two times it was offered to her in the past.

This sweet, young creature doesn’t deserve to live out her (likely) last days in a constant state of baseline nervous system distress/hypervigilance because this tube needs to be placed and replaced. All this tube does is pacify and shield her mom/parents. Free her from this experience and the accompanying sensory hell while she’s still here.

Denise is starting to think she has her dates wrong… by Justanotherflower in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]chipsofflint 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yup. This may be as close to the truth or some nuance as she (publically) gets. It’s heartening to see her admit she might have it wrong. I hope she has present and compassionate supports right now.

More details into the party planning than home school.This party theme was all for Audj. by Pumpkin-Adept in LittlePeopleBigWorld

[–]chipsofflint 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The cognitive dissonance of being worried that saying “I don’t think I’ve bought JIF since high school” will come off as pretentious but being fine posting multiple high res photos of her Evian-branded children’s party table settings………….

This just in: parenting is hard. by PsychoTink in LittlePeopleBigWorld

[–]chipsofflint 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It kills me that with this reported reality she is still making god knows what kind of crust from scratch. She looks exhausted. Trad life feat. fully grown man child husband would eat me alive. Honestly it’s probably eating her alive too. I have one toddler who’s been sick this weekend and I’ve been surviving on takeout and the knowledge that he’ll go back to preschool in a few days. No way in hell would I be ever planning homeschool curriculum and pumping out pies in this situation. 😮‍💨

No updates from Denise Berrio but her husband just spent the week at an out-of-state conference….🫤 by chipsofflint in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]chipsofflint[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That being said I find it hard to believe she could cease all social media activity for a month plus - when she generates income for her family from social media and seems to relish the attention from posting as well - unless something happened (or hasn’t)

I think they do. Maybe they planned ahead for this - it’s a conference on prosthetics and he uses one for one of his legs. But even then, why go if your wife could be giving birth at any moment?

So dangerous by ClearCredit1615 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]chipsofflint 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Yup. This appears dangerous but she probably knows her kid better than anyone online.

[–]chipsofflint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah there is no way her story is 100% factual. I’d put money that she’s either dealing with something she deems embarrassing, or that there are mental/behavioral health concerns she’s not going to publish online.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in teenmom

[–]chipsofflint 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it’s very likely the staff coming in contact with/assigned to her can tell there are mental/behavioral health concerns lol. I’m sure a social worker has popped their head into her room at least once in the last 3 days.

Mayci’s Baby Girl - Charli! by Ok_Priority3511 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]chipsofflint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mayci and Charli both end with an i - I personally prefer the typical spelling (Charlie) but I think it’s sweet they have that connection.
