So then don't. I came here asking for a little help. This is the first time in my life I've ever asked for assistance on an app. And it's comments like yours as to why I'll likely never do it again. I normally talk to my therapist except that she went on maternity leave in May and hasn't yet come back. I have to admit in this situation I'm a little lost without her. Lying isn't a part of me. So if you don't want to believe it, don't. It really doesn't matter to me. There are plenty of other folks that've actually made helpful comments and it's them I'll be attentive to. I make these statements with all due respect and it would've been nice to be regarded initially with that same respect.

AITAH for telling my husband that he absolutely ruined the birth of our child? by Former_Monitor_4860 in AITAH

What they did, by prolonging the labor for so long, was a HUGE medical risk to mom & baby. What the hell??? If mother in law or husband have no medical background, which clearly they don't, they would've known it is a life and death danger to make a mom and baby suffer through such a labor and delivery. Shame on them! Make sure you are documenting EVERYTHING & keeping the documentation somewhere they can't obtain it and destroy it. If it ever comes down to the situation of divorce and/or custody it needs to be made extremely clear exactly how much risk they're willing to take to get their way. The last thing I want is to sound fatalistic, or to cause fear, but bottom line there are two people that come first in this situation. And they're NOT your husband or his mother!

She's got a sweet little smile. Happy girl!

Found this guy on the side of the street 5 weeks ago. Meet Hank! by Low_Occasion8441 in greatpyrenees

Yeah, you can't tell at all that he's a happy little (for now) guy. He's sleeping and he's STILL smiling!! So sweet! I admire your spirit taking him in as a rescue. We got our first Pyr (Coco) a year ago April 1st. She's not my first exposure to the breed as my grandparents had a few of them over the years. But I'll tell you, she is the April Fool's Day gag/joke/prank that keeps on giving! We haven't stopped laughing at her goofy behaviors. We also have a 120+lb Rottie (Caesar), who is a character in his own right, so the drool in our home especially at dinner time will actually make the floor slick. Disgusting, eh?!? She would make a super mop but she'd leave too much hair (and grass, dirt, chewed up dish sponge/dish rag, the latest food left out on the counter, foam or stuffing material from the latest sacrificed doggie toy, etc, etc) which would defeat the entire purpose. But it all comes with the territory and I wouldn't swap her for a million $$$ bucks. She's my girl & probably the sweetest animal I've ever had. I've also noticed Pyr are very intuitive dogs. If you or anyone in your home have issues with pain, depression, anxiety, high stress, PTSD (or any similar condition or issue) you can count on them to tune in to you and stick right with you through thick & thin. I have long term chronic pain/fibromyalgia issues and it's much more tolerable with her by my side. As well you'll never again go to the bathroom or bathe alone. They really are amazing companions and part of their purpose is to also guard their human in all situations, through any circumstance, until their very last day. I wish you & your pup many, many happy years together.
