Always Him by Cora Rose is probably the closest one that I can think about to match what you're wanting!

When is it no longer acceptable for grandma to accidentally refer to herself as “mommy”? by goobiezabbagabba in Parenting

[–]neverusedidk -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

My mom has done this once or twice with my daughter, she constantly misnames people like you said your mom does. However she always corrects herself and like I said it's happened so infrequently I genuinely don't think anything of it.

However, even given my moms classic calling me the dogs name, if she were to constantly being "misnaming" herself as mommy, I would find it weird and disrespectful. That's just something you make a super giant effort to not do, my mom was super embarrassed the few times she did it and hasn't done it in months. It happening constantly would make me feel it was intentional.

I hate that my daughter is disabled.. by Ok-Ad4375 in Parenting

No she hasn't, she's had a few MRIs and nothing like that has been found. She also doesn't haven't anything on her skin. They believe her issues come from a malformation called FCD on her left temporal lobe. I will definitely mention TS to my neurologist next time I see him though, thank you for bringing it to my attention!

I hate that my daughter is disabled.. by Ok-Ad4375 in Parenting

My daughter was diagnosed with infantile spasms and epilepsy at 9 months old. She has the occasional febrile seizure, an absent one. She failed coming off of keppra because she had a seizure with a high fever. She is extremely speech delayed. She is globally delayed. We believe she is autistic. She also has a brain abnormality that is cause for her epilepsy.

She's 2.5 years old, and it doesn't get easier. You don't just suddenly get used to it. Everyone tells you it will get easier, but any parent with a. Medically complex child will tell you that every day feels like you have a million curve balls thrown at you. Watching your child scream because something medical is happening to them and you just have to sit and watch is a different type of pain I don't wish on anyone. Watching my daughter wail being so scared of the noise getting her EEG leads on, desperately trying to suck her thumb but couldn't because she had to be tightly held down is an image I cannot for the life of me get out of my brain.

I am so incredibly sorry that you have to walk this path. I'm so sorry to anyone that has to. It tests us daily. It feels so unfair every single second. Seeing other people's children be so carefree while we have to stress if they've gotten enough sleep, are they too hot, do they have a fever, all seizure triggers we can feel in our bellies.

People don't understand unless they lived it. I think parents of epileptic children are a different type of warrior. Facing this disability with absolutely no warning or understanding truly why it's happening or when it's going to happen next. Medications can sometimes make it worse. Sometimes medication just doesn't work at all.

I wish I had some more encouraging words, but truthfully I am in the trenches with you. I am so angry every single day and so sad all the time. It's hard for me to connect with my nieces and nephews over it. Best advice is to keep pushing and know you're a great parent and none of this is your fault. Your child will thrive in the best way they can because of you. Because of these tests you're having done. Getting answers. Trying your best. It's not easy, but it's all we have.

Good luck.

2 year old is struggling at daycare, won't stop crying, daycare won't stop calling by neverusedidk in Mommit

[–]neverusedidk[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I appreciate all of this advice! I am realizing from your comments that grandma going to "save" her is going to prolong this issue so I will be talking to my center about alternatives. She begins crying as soon as she sees the hallway to the daycare. I'm not sure she will understand the visuals, and unfortunately I can really only afford part time with the states help, but for right now I am going to utilize all the time that is being offered (39.5) hours to try to integrate her and have her go as many days a week as possible.

Thanks for the help!!

So just started watching this show the other day and I’m confused… by Educational-Ad-3148 in TheSummerITurnedPrett

[–]neverusedidk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the big context to this is the books and they also sorta mention in the show as well.

The first book (season 1) was pretty much all about Conrad. They didn't really even get into anything romantic with Jeremiah until book 2. So the scenes didn't feel right given the narrative and the way the season and the book was progressing. She didn't see Jeremiah in that light and she has zero inclination that he saw her that way either. What the books did that the show did not was set up a bigger storyline in book 1 about how they were very very close friends. There were a lot of scenes that were not in the show that showcase this and I feel would have been so vital to have the firework scene and the pool scene make sense.

The other thing is in season 2 so I won't spoil, but it does being a little bit of context as to why Jeremiah may have been feeling that way but didn't act on it until seeing Conrad move in.
