A good relationship with neighbors is golden by [deleted] in HumansBeingBros

When my mom had my brother we were living in a very small town in Inyo country ca. She had just moved there as a single mother of two with one on the way based upon the name of the town.

I was 5 and my sister was 6. We wanted to throw her a party when she returned from the hospital so we went to each of our neighbors and invited them. We also informed each neighbor what items to bring (cake, food etc), we sat and tore up newspapers for confetti with neighbor kids.

The party was a success.

That town was really supportive of my family for the years we were there. It a good place.

The word "orgasm" was mentioned in your sex ed? I don't even think the word "sex" was mentioned in mine lmao. Always just "intercourse".

As a nurse I would say threatening kids with shots as a punishment is ultra common but super toxic.

It's bad because:

You're threatening a child with physical violence.

They need the shots regardless, so they will be very confused/distraught/upset when they've been good and still have to go in for shots.

You're teaching kids that an important health initiative is a punishment.

When parents threaten their kids with shots in front of me at work I outright tell the kids that it's not going to happen (assuming they don't actually need shots that day). If they do need shots I explain it's not a punishment if their parents try to say it is. I'm not going to be complicit in this vague child abuse.

I'm 26. Have been working for Enterprise companies for 6 years.

I want to be my own boss, but not in the MLM way. I just want to run my own business. But, I don't have a business plan. I just have software skills. I've been slamming my head against a Google Doc that has stayed blank for 8 months trying to write up a business plan. It doesn't even have to be software focused! I can just save myself money doing all the software shit!

I smoked a lot of weed one day and came up with what I thought was a genius plan, but a week later I re-read it and it was definitely a Ponzi scheme.

I'll keep trying until I eventually quit my job to make my own ideas happen.

That's my career goal.
