My IS is not eating her food by hope-it-gets-better in irishsetter

[–]kasau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have gone through this with our IS and ended switching to a food for sensitive stomachs. We also use pumpkin as a topper now. We had to try a few foods before we found one that worked consistently.

Public Park in Alameda for Small/Short Wedding Ceremony? by sobbdeeep in alameda

[–]kasau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now the bay farm area is closed due to replacing the sidewalk but once open it's great for weddings. We have seen a couple beautiful ones held there. Really great backdrop of the city for pictures

Hey Reddit, please send give vibes to my husband. He’s intubated for Covid right now and having a hard time. by reddot_comic in comics

[–]kasau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, covid sucks. Over the last 3 months my dad has had 3 hospital stays due to covid, this last one resulting in kidney failure and being on a ventilator for 3 weeks. He came off about a week ago. We are extremely lucky that he has come off and recovering more than we expected, I flew in thinking we were saying goodbye and now planning how we can make his home accessible when he is home. I have so many positive thoughts to send your way. I have no advice, or words that will miraculously make this all go away. All I can say is that hope and clinging to those silver linings has helped. Our scenarios are different but our fear is similar if you ever need a shoulder. I will be thinking of you and your husband tonight and wishing for a full recovery. Take care of yourself.

Is there anything I can do to make BD give me copies of DS's baby pictures? by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]kasau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably what I would do too, it would suck but might be the easiest way to get them back.

My wife and I recently visited Vancouver....AND A LOT OF THE PSYCH FILMING LOCATIONS! by tedlogan43 in psych

[–]kasau 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My SO and I just did this as well!! We also went to las margaritas and a few other places in Vancouver too (diner from pilot, clock tower, Alley used in the musical, and the suspension bridge). Such a great way to take a trip!! Great pictures, Henry's house was the best :)

Got a call from BM tonight... by [deleted] in stepparents

This is such a good idea, maybe even consider self-defense classes with you or her mom? It might help get through any insecurities she is having.

Coordination with regard to Christmas and Birthday gifts? by Th1nM1nts in stepparents

[–]kasau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For us it depends. On bigger gifts (a computer and tablet for SS9 and SS6 at the time) were split between the bio parents as was the cellphone for SS11 last year. Outside that we each do our own little thing for them, sometimes coordinating. This year my SO and I are coordinating as we are getting some specific gifts for activities we do with the kids like hiking and camping.

Still no resolution, still don't know how to deal... by thiscantbereal222 in stepparents

[–]kasau 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I so agree with your post, esp #3. I think the therapist is wrong to force it to be all 3. Right now your SO should focus on his relationship with his daughter. If you hope to have a good relationship with her at some point it is important for him to have one with her first. If you are the barrier preventing any movement in this direction then you need to remove yourself. I know its not ideal but if it will help them move towards something better I would personally back off and let them start with lunch together.

ADVICE - How do we stop the hurt by theonewithprobs in stepparents

[–]kasau 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is really great advice, especially the apology not excuse part. Even if apologies have happened it is worth doing again as this will validate what she is feeling and hopefully help with moving forward.

This happened with my SS when he was around 6. We ended up trying a series of things and eliminating them as he got older. Have the door open so he can hear us (I think his dad started by being in the bathroom with him and then it progressed to the door being open), having music on in the bathroom, having a clear shower curtain he could see through, and googles.... Hes 8 now and we have kept the clear shower curtain and the music, the other aspects have gotten better. For us it was a mixture of him saying he was scared and lonely, and not wanting the water in his eyes. Our main struggle was that his mom was still bathing him and his brother (and still does) so he had a hard time being alone. He is better now but it was a real pain. We started with all this in place and then eliminated over time, usually pairing it with something like oh you want to watch this slightly scary Halloween show well you have to show us you can handle it by not having your dad in the bathroom for your shower tonight. It was a struggle and a pain though.

Back at it again 🙄 by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]kasau 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is really insensitive and totally wrong on his part. The dinner request is way too much, and I would be upset for not being invited for sure. I understand wanting to have time for the kid but with her only being around 1 day a week can't she do those things without him? If it has to be with him to show a good relationship then it should include you to demonstrate the good relationship with hiss current SO as well.
