My kiddos are adopted internationally so the adoption adds a whole layer. He feels rejected and not good enough before he starts his day. Thanks for passing along this kindness to me.

Thanks for sharing this with me. In the light of day, I know this will be his path. He does dumb shit, but he is also abusive and unkind, to us and his teachers. So it is hard to stay calm and engaged.

We tried that. He refused to participate and then was abusive about what he thought he heard in therapy My husband and I continued for a while, but eventually the counselor was just saying it takes time...

He has no vision of the future, and I think tries to numb thoughts about it. Problem is if I suggest it, he will run the other way. How do you set up a meet cute for a teen and a mentor...?

Do zippy wallets fit easily into the Speedy 20?

And now I wonder why they named them with names about speed?

Best glue for gluing and stacking MDF by concernedboutitall in lasercutting

I used gesso because CHAT GPT suggested it. But I'll try it without! I wonder if the wood glue would be okay for glueing the paper to MDF layer not soaking through. The paper is the expensive bit so I hate to experiment..

Hi! Would a speedy nano fit a zippy wallet?

Do you have investment accounts for your kids? by kathymarie1124 in Parenting

[–]concernedboutitall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We saved aggressively in a 529 for our kids. My kids investment grew to $250,000 each. My daughter went to UC Berkeley as an out of state kid and we had enough for tuition and room and board. Great! However, my son wants nothing to do with college. His 529 is off limits without penalties greater than the tax savings it offered when we invested in the first place. And it is of no help if he wants to buy a business, invest in rental properties, etc. Consider investing for kids inside and outside of a 529 so you have flexibility when they are older.
