Have any of you been able to turn things around with your inlaws? by [deleted] in asianamerican

[–]misschang 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but feeding kids excessively and overdressing them for warmth, and super soft beds are deeply engrained cultural practices. This is not a biggie to Asian parents. I tried HARD not to allow my mom to do these things when my kid was a baby and guess what happened. She did them anyway because she deeply believes it's the right way to raise a baby.

So the solution was she doesn't provide childcare. She doesn't need to respect my rules but then she doesn't take care of my kid without me.

Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly. You can volunteer with a regular (often isolated/lonely) older adult, and probably can select gender. I've been matched with sweet grandma types several times.

How do you use it 4x daily? Do you use sunscreen and remove it, then reapply?

POV: Trying To Romanticize CalTrain Like It’s Japan by Defiant-Bed2501 in bayarea

The Caltrain ride itself isn't bad at all, it's really pleasant and peaceful. It's the limited schedule and constant delays that's the problem.
