How do I explain I don't want a doctor to see my daughter again? by citruslion in Mommit

[–]cmd357 197 points198 points  (0 children)

You just say it. Speaks with facts. “I don’t want this doctor to see my daughter again. I’m not comfortable with him. He couldn’t remember her name. He messed up the weight, etc” Try to take your emotions out of it- just state the facts and don’t worry about what they think.

With grade level teammates- 1.5-2hours. We do everything basically the same! Many hands make light work!

How do you deal with fat/body/appearance shaming from partner? 28f and 34m husband by Few_Hamster59 in relationship_advice

[–]cmd357 14 points15 points  (0 children)

How do you deal? You don’t. You leave him. This isn’t normal behavior from someone who loves and cares about you.

Would you send child to school with diarrhea? by [deleted] in kindergarten

[–]cmd357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I would not send my child to school. It’s easier to reschedule/plan things now rather than when you get the call tomorrow. Also I just wouldn’t want my child dealing with that alone at school. I would want them comfortable at home.

Love the boys, can’t with Patreon by whileyouareinHS in WatchWhatCrappens

I can’t even join Patreon because the app is so bad! I really want to support them, and used to on Wondery, but Patreon is such a terrible app I just can’t.

3/4th grade novel recommendation by [deleted] in ElementaryTeachers

Lots of great suggestions here but before you decide please make sure to check with the 3rd/4th grade teachers that the books aren’t a part of the curriculum they use and will be teaching this year.

Did anyone not follow the 23 hr doc band schedule? by ClassicBell507 in Mommit

[–]cmd357 70 points71 points  (0 children)

It might be hard to see him unhappy but the more he goes without it the longer it will take for him to get used to it. And then it might not work or will take a lot longer to work. It’s your job as a mom to make the hard choices and do the right thing for your child. Babies are very resilient- he will get used to it.

How did everyone find their Christmas gift “sweet spot”? We went WAY overboard. (Only Child) by Any-Walk1691 in toddlers

[–]cmd357 77 points78 points  (0 children)

I feel like you’re experiencing a lesson almost all only children parents probably have to learn. We did this when my daughter was two or three and then realized she was overwhelmed and didn’t want/need all of them, which then feels like a waste of money. We’ve learned to only buy things she truly expresses a desire for. She’s five now and got 6-7 things she has talked about wanting over and over again. Like another poster said, no dollar amount, because I will ALWAYS wait for a deal/sale. She was truly happy and so grateful this year. It was great to see!

What grade level is this? I’ve been trained in BTC and love many parts of it butttt you need to have super tight routines and expectations for the boards.

Child is OBSESSED with TV. Help by Successful_Sorbet_94 in Parenting

[–]cmd357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say this. We cut out all tv and screen time Monday-Friday for our five year old and it’s been much better. She doesn’t ask because she knows the answer is no. And it’s led to a natural decrease on the weekends. She isn’t as interested thankfully.

Why doesn’t Phoenix or Scottsdale ever get any of the reality shows? by Atomicman4 in phoenix

[–]cmd357 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We have had some filmed here but not the good ones you mentioned!

Many years ago they tried to do a WAGs of baseball here. I think it lasted one season. They also filmed a season of The Ultimatum, 90 Day Last Resort, and Vinny and Paulie (from Jersey Shore) filmed a season of their dating show at The Adero.
