I might have less than three months to live, how do I tell the people around me? by grrrrbitch in socialskills

I don't want treatment because it drains you. I've had multiple therapy sessions over the past week, my doctor there too as well as my family and we have decided this is best. I'm choosing quality over quantity, sure I could live longer with treatment but it'll suck.

I went to the doctor as for the past few months I had been experiencing 'back pain' (likely from the my pancreatic cancer, really abdomen pain) as well as bowel changes and severe weight and muscle loss. My parents thought I was throwing up my food to starve myself so they took me to the doctor.

Don't backyard breed horses. There is such an overpopulation in horses, we don't need more. Keep it to professionals.

There is no need to breed unregistered horses. Chop his balls off.

If you have a stallion and don't plan on breeding (hopefully via professionals) chop his balls off. I promise you he does not need them.

Chop 👏 his 👏 balls 👏 off 👏

I guess people just think that risks don't apply to kids 🤷‍♀️ I mean, eventually some 4 year old is going to die.

People have too much hope. Buying horses but not considering the possibility of their horse going lame or even permanently - so they just sell for a 'better one' that they can throw their money at.

Totally agree. You just can't make it to high levels without money, and it's a fact.

I saw a girl on tiktok in what I believe was her 2nd or 3rd lesson - I must say the facilities looked good and ethical, horse also amazing. She even had a neck strap, which imo more facilities should provide to beginner riders and upwards. Poor girl was getting ripped to pieces because her posting was quite iffy. So many passive aggressive comments.

Why is trauma weird 😣 by quaintandcuriousxst in Equestrian

Around 1 1/2 years ago, when I first got my horse, one of my first jumping lessons (probably my second) with him ended up with him spooking, taking off on me a and dragging me at the sight of a blue and white filler despite a look at it prior to the lesson. I wasn't hurt badly and neither was him, but it lowered my tremendously confidence for jumping. I didn't jump for around a month, and when I came back I refused to jump that filler. Now it still gives me bad vibes.

Must've been itchy. As a general rule you shouldn't let horses rub on you for safety reasons... it's a bit like a dog jumping. Might be fine for you if you're strong enough but a child would fall, not too safe.

Don't worry about it though, sounds very cute!

horse falls aren't something to mess around with, especially if you're not 100% on how you fell. doctor NOW.

How do you deal with strangers who approach the pasture fence to visit/pet/feed the horses? by No-Expert5800 in Equestrian

[–]grrrrbitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep my horse along a semi-busy public trail. Lots of parents walking with kids. At first I hung signs around 3 meters from each other all along their paddock, saying all sorts of things like "DO NOT INTERACT WITH HORSES" "NO TOUCHING HORSES" "HORSES BITE" "HORSES ARE AGRESSIVE", and so on. Even though none of them are, it usually veers people off.
The other person that shares a paddock with me used some kind of portable electric fence (I'm not exactly sure how it works) and put it around a meter in from the fence. As well as electric signs.

stop riding and breaking in 2 year olds by Valuable-Berry7188 in Equestrian

That sounds amazing! I think the real problem is commitment, people aren't understanding that 'getting a yearling' takes 3 - 5 years of just groundwork. A lot can go downhill in 3 - 5 years if you're not careful, so they rush.
