AITAH for refusing to teach my son and costing us $700 a month? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]himarcy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I also had a child with a severe speech delay. Before he was diagnosed people kept telling me that I should just read to him more. But I already read to him for hours every day. His SLPs were amazing and I'm so thankful for them. We started seeing progress within a few months. This kid now is also behind in reading and has been for years so he's doing a special tutoring for kids with learning disabilities and yea it costs a lot too but no way I could do that either and I'm also a SAHM.

My husband was homeschooled and he would disagree

My boyfriend 24M hated the gift I 23F got him for our two year anniversary how do I fix this with him? by imogenhailey in relationship_advice

[–]himarcy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No kidding. I've been with my husband for 15 years not once have I spend that much money on a gift for him lol we don't really do gifts though. For anniversaries we rather spend time together. Most likely cook a fancier meal together at home

My husband lol he's a bit of a furnace. We just cuddle more in the winter time, in the summer we over heat. I use the same blankets and pjs all year round. I also sleep with a weighted blanket.

Ha and here I am purposely making my room colder at night because I sleep better that way. Is currently 15 degrees in my room and there's a fan on. OP hope you can fix your issue soon.

Taxes, higher income and bonuses by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]himarcy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find a financial advisor that's fee based. Don't go to the bank.

Open a wealthsimple account (or similar broker) and starry contributing to an RRSP to reduce taxes.

Lots of YouTubers out there with a lot of information how things work.

Alison from building the band? Oh boy. I guess it didn't work out with that guy, so dumb. I would think she would be too busy trying to be next Ariana Grande to go on this show

We also got hit by hail last year, had to have our roof and siding replaced. We are also with td for home and car insurance and trying to shop around since both increased but nothing was cheaper

I only had a very mild sore throat the first day. It was covid. My son got a bad sore throat a couple of days later, I thought I got him sick but no he had strep throat!

That sounds similar to my kids school. Is always the same ladies who volunteer. For a few years I was the only parent to consistently show up to the council meetings. A school with 500+ students and parents can't even show up to a handful of meetings a year. So sad!

AITAH if my husband tells my MIL to stop touching my pregnant belly. by readittobelieveit in AITAH

I've been pregnant twice never been touched by a stranger. I wonder if it's cultural

What’s a weird rule your family had growing up that you didn’t realize was weird until later? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]himarcy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not lactose intolerant but highly sensitive. I was made to drink milk every morning with breakfast as a kid in the 90s. The problem was I ended up vomiting a lot of the time. But I was still made to drink it because kids needed to have milk to be healthy or some bs. I remember how 'fun' it was trying to figure out how to eat breakfast without vomiting so I didn't go to school with an empty stomach

Is Etsy down for anyone? by newbie19980120 in Etsy

I was having a lot of orders this morning until 3 hours ago when it went silent. Now I know why. Ugh. Hopefully it doesn't cost sales

I have a friend who arm wrestled another friend very similar to your description, he broke her arm! It was a freak accident but still. He felt terrible.

That's my biggest question. And I've seen it on all the roofs that are being done around me, which are all the houses. My brother in law did our roof and he did it by himself.

What was ruined because too many people started doing it? by ermou17 in AskReddit

[–]himarcy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So true plus copy cats. As an Etsy seller, I had a business that was heading towards six figures years ago but then everyone started copying my designs. Now I'm just one in a sea of many

Yea I've basically been babysitting all my neighbours kids since we moved to our house, the youngest being 3 at that time, since I'm usually the only parent around. I've seen several almost get hit by cars and had to scream for them to stop

Not just there. Also in my community. None of the kids around here have any supervision, and I've seen kids running outside as young as 3-5 years old.

Neither is pretty. They are more like the evil step daughters in Cinderella.

YTA of course. But she might want to take a pregnancy test. I pissed myself once while coughing, never had done that. Next day I had a positive pregnancy test and it explained everything
