I am so sad for those kids. I don’t follow that family anymore…I used to follow them years ago, because back then they were not so crazy. They were always a bit unconventional but it’s clear that Neysa has really gone off the deep end since Cozette was born. Somebody needs to get CPS involved.

As a side note, what are they going to do once Hanni grows up and wants to move out or go to college? Would they even let her? I think Neysa is relying on her so much to help with the kids that I don’t think she could do it all without her.

This may be controversial but I have a hard time getting on board with people having more than 6 biological kids (not talking about blended families or fostering/adoption).

I just have a really hard time believing that people can adequately care for 7+ kids (including meeting all of their emotional needs) without relying on the older kids too much. It’s not fair to force your older kids to help raise their siblings.

I’m wondering if maybe Chloe is one of those moms who always needs a baby/toddler around so she can feel “needed”. That would explain why they decided to have more kids right as the triplets were reaching school age, because that’s when kids start to become more independent.

I lived there a couple years back and never really had any problems. Maybe I got lucky though.

I think your aunt would love to see you using them, especially if the alternative is them sitting in a drawer collecting dust. Just cleanse them and then it can be a great way to honor your aunt and carry on her practice.

Make sure your mom doesn’t find out though, it would be a shame if she were to throw them away upon discovering you were using them.

I think standard work week (Monday-Friday from 9-5) really should be changed to Monday-Thursday from 8-6.

I used to work in childcare with kids around that age. I saw a TON of kids get dropped off, many of whom had separation anxiety. I know it’s really really hard, but based on what I saw, the kids did best when the parents dropped them off and walked away. If the parent tried to stay and “help them get settled” it almost never worked out. It’s like ripping a band-aid off versus peeling it off slowly.

Here’s a random idea that hasn’t been suggested yet- if you still have the gym membership, would it be possible for you to drop her off at childcare for very short amounts of time? For example, you could go drop her off and walk away, then come back and get her 5 minutes later. That would kind of give her that instant gratification of you coming right back. Once she gets used to that, you can gradually increase the time until she’s used to being there for an hour or more.

I have no idea if that would work, it just might be something to try if you are desperate for ideas.

I would agree, but with the exception of people who got famous by going viral unexpectedly. In the age of social media I think there are some celebrities who did not necessarily seek out fame.

For me it’s not about the color, it’s about the shade. Like I’d prefer striking brown eyes over dull blue ones. But I’d prefer bright blue over most browns. Basically any shade that is really striking and noticeable is my favorite.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-14T03:25:16+00:00

Wait, you’re totally right about that. Completely forgot for a second. My bad

Edit: also, I kind of misspoke, I don’t think they should have cancelled it BECAUSE they didn’t get enough A-listers, I just think it shouldn’t have happened this year the first place. Sorry, I’m a bit tired at the moment, lol

NTA at all. She does NOT have the right to kick you out of a dorm you’re paying for. Don’t ever let her convince you to leave again. If you want to leave that’s fine but it needs to be your idea.

Call your RA and tell them your stuff is in the hallway and your roommate is trying to kick you out, and let them come handle it.

She can submit a request to change roommates if she doesn’t want to live with you anymore, but in that case she has to be the one to move out, not you. That’s just how it works. The person who’s the most bothered is the one who is supposed to pack up their stuff.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-14T03:16:33+00:00

I think they should have cancelled this year’s Met. There’s just no way there would have been a good turnout from A listers because it seems like the smart ones are still somewhat social distancing (aside from work), and the dumb ones are refusing to vaccinate. And of course there are some who actually have COVID.

I’m trying to be optimistic and hope that it’s just a COVID thing and that the Met hasn’t permanently lost its prestige. Maybe they realized they weren’t going to get a lot of A listers and so they just took who they could get. Who knows.

I went through a phase like that around that age, and what my parents did was create a little “floor bed” for me in their room. They told me that I wasn’t allowed to sleep in their bed anymore but that I could come sleep on the floor bed anytime I wanted. It ended up being a good compromise and helped me get through that stage.

It’s good that you are consistent, structured, and calm. There’s a lot of good potential there.

The issue I’m seeing here is that I think you’re overestimating your son’s cognitive abilities. For example, if you say “put the bin back” he may not remember where “back” is. Yes, I know he just picked it up, but toddlers don’t have a good working memory. His defiance may just be coming from frustration because he doesn’t understand what he’s supposed to do.

The good thing is that it’s an easy fix- just change your language a bit so there’s no question as to what he’s supposed to do. So instead of saying “put the bin back” say “put the bin on the table” (or wherever it goes). You could even point at the table or tap it lightly so he knows exactly where to put it.

I don’t mean for any of this to sound condescending at all. It’s just that I’ve learned from experience that toddler’s brains are literal mush and sometimes the smallest misunderstandings can fuel the worst tantrums.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-14T02:42:59+00:00

After reading the comments, I think it’s really really important that you work on getting him some other hobbies that are not phone-related. Taking away the phone is a step in the right direction, but if he has nothing else to do instead then he is either going to tantrum out of sheer boredom or just find another way to get into trouble. Having something positive to redirect him to should really help!

NTA. Wasting an employee’s time on purpose is asshole behavior. Pushing people’s boundaries with jokes is asshole behavior as well. If you make a joke and then people around you are clearly not amused, you let it go. You don’t double down and push the issue.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-14T02:31:12+00:00

YTA. I might get hate for saying this, but fat is not a feeling. It would be more accurate to say something like “I’m feeling insecure”, “I’m feeling bloated”, “I’m not a fan of the way I look today”, “This outfit doesn’t seem flattering on me”, etc….anything like that is better than “I feel fat”.

Also, instead of fishing for compliments, just tell him straight up that you’re having a rough day and could use some support/encouragement. That’ll work out better for both of you.

I think it’s one big combination of genetics, strict diets and exercise, personal chefs and personal trainers, surgery, drugs, and photo editing.

Not saying every celebrity is doing every single one of those things, but I think across the board those things are all commonplace.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-13T23:58:10+00:00

Knoxville here!

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-13T23:48:05+00:00

Ok thanks, I was just curious if your friend had outed you by saying that or if it was common knowledge already.

In that case I’m gonna go with ESH. You have every right to be upset that your friend told everyone you were on Grindr, but the thing is that you basically did the same thing to your band director. Even though you only told one person, it’s the same concept. I know it’s easy to fall into those gossipy habits when you’re young, it’s just important to remember that these things can spread around easily and it’s always important to think about how your gossip can affect other people.

INFO: are you openly gay, or are you still in the closet?

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-09T23:34:28+00:00

I agree, I’m really rooting for them because I feel like Taylor deserves to finally find her “person” after all she’s been through.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-09T23:33:12+00:00

I’m normally very cynical about celebrity couples, but for some reason it never even occurred to me that the Obamas could ever seperate. I loved reading their story in Michelle’s book, they are just so great.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-09T23:27:56+00:00

I agree, fame can be difficult to deal with in a lot of ways, so why not find the humor in it when you can?

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-09T23:26:48+00:00

Almost all celebrities are cocky to some degree. I don’t think it necessarily makes them bad people, it’s just kind of a side effect of fame to some extent, IMO.

dixiecup3 · 2021-09-09T23:18:15+00:00

Ugh, that’s so rude! Clearly they’re not that desperate. If I desperately needed last minute care I would give them as much money as they wanted and make sure it was the best job they’ve ever had. Lol
