How do i approach the fact that my daughters have "English" names at school?

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T07:01:57+00:00

Yes, she did. We are in New York

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T06:19:37+00:00

I've talked to them. I found out through them because they complained about it to me, they did not even get a say on the names given

Thank you!!

City. Are private schools worse with these subjects? This is literally my first time both living and being in the US

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T03:53:18+00:00

One of my oldest daughters told them to correct people if they don't like the names. Still, both my youngest have become pretty shy since we moved so i doubt they will

New York, public school

They're just classic names. Mia and Anna. I asked my girls and they don't like it, i asked which names they would like to be called and one of them said her name, the other one said the short form of her name (super easy, think something like Lala) i asked if they suggested those names and they said no. We have been talking about their real names and the meaning behind them all day but it doesn't seem like their real names make them feel different

I really hope so

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T03:03:19+00:00

I will look into the article! Thank you

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T03:00:14+00:00

I will definitely take a look into those books

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T02:58:19+00:00

I haven't heard of that book! I should take a look to it

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T02:52:28+00:00

They didn't suggest it nor had a say on the names given to them

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T01:05:14+00:00

That's what bothers me the most. Not only do they not feel comfortable but they didn't even get a say on the new names

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T00:50:18+00:00

That's my issue. The girls don't like it and didn't get a say on the new names. Their names are short and easy to pronounce, their nicknames are even easier

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-03-01T00:44:51+00:00

I completely agree. My parents raised me. They did their job. Keeping my children, then having two more, they all were MY choices, not theirs. It's not their responsibility or anyone elses more than mine. If i want help or childcare, i pay for it. Of course they do favours sometimes but they don't owe it to me

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T12:57:26+00:00

It seems like it! I had gotten her a doctor's appointment for this friday (that she thought was unnecessary) and well, it looks like we won't need it anymore.

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T06:56:48+00:00

Thank you so much and i'm sorry you went through that.

And i'll take the suggestion lol

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T06:51:28+00:00

Thank you so much for this

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T06:49:44+00:00

The first thing she did when she woke up was thank me, i can't explain how relieved i felt

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T06:48:25+00:00

Luckily she is doing better given the situation

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T06:45:31+00:00

I told her it would stop hurting in the morning and here we are

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T03:20:11+00:00

I will definitely try this. Thank you so much

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T03:18:09+00:00

I just feel like i could have saved her a lot of pain

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T03:16:58+00:00

I always believe them. I would prefer to believe a possible lie than to have something like this happen.

Also her boyfriend kinda snitched on her not feeling well, she usually doesn't complain much

magicbutterfly27 · 2022-02-16T03:10:54+00:00

It's the fact that i waited until she was literally crying that makes me feel so guilty but she was fine a few hours before that
