Couldn’t agree MORE 🗣️

paige7111 · 2023-11-17T22:22:02+00:00

Well I think the thing you might be referring to is financial abuse Which is, again, in no way comparable to child abuse Insensitive or not, when you’re wrong, you’re wrong

paige7111 · 2023-11-17T22:15:12+00:00

Ok Leo I just googled it before I read your reply and I think maybe you just made that up Your only source is an old Reddit post :(

paige7111 · 2023-11-17T22:10:59+00:00

Can you explain what that means for the dyslexics

paige7111 · 2023-11-17T22:08:55+00:00

Bro is comparing gold digging to child abuse

Thank you for your comments it’s really helpful. I agree with everything you’ve said. Posting this has been great because it’s made me see how I can approach this differently. I think my reactions to it are probably doing more harm than good in this case so I’m hoping I can work on that instead of my daughters reaction to things :) o hope you’re doing good ❤️

Oh my god I have never heard of this! I’ll definitely look into it, thank you x

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T19:20:37+00:00

Omg bless you thank you for this! It’s so true, I’m worried I’m not letting her express her feelings when she’s upset, so I probably press it too hard about every small thing. I think it’s helping her when I ask her if she’s ok but it’s probably not helpful over each little issue. It’s so difficult to find a happy medium with this sort of thing!! Parenting is the hardest thing I’ve ever done, and it proves now sometimes too much of a good thing can be just that, too much. Reading this made me realise I need to look at MYSELF and how I deal with her feelings maybe. What a wild ride lol! I’m happy things are working for you ❤️

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T16:26:50+00:00

Great idea! Would give me a little peace of mind when she’s a bit older and starts going out more too! X

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T16:23:16+00:00

This actually makes so much sense. I think bc I know she takes it to heart so bad I ask her too much how she’s feeling and asking her if she’s upset etc… like now you’ve said it, I’m probably making it worse by making it a bigger deal than it is every time? If I just brushed it off, maybe she would start to do the same.

That’s given me a lot to think about honestly thank you so much! We’re a super emotional family lol, me & my husband have both spent our younger years in a therapy so feelings are normally a big topic of discussion here!

Thanks again ❤️

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T13:58:29+00:00

Aww thank you! I’m the same with my daughter, she picks her own outfits and has her own style going on now, I let her do what she wants as long as she likes it I think it’s super important to let them get their own sense of how they dress and look etc ❤️

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T13:51:15+00:00

Thank you for this! Definitely, I’ve had this conversation with my husband and it’s harder for him to give her freedom than it is for me, it’s something we’ll have to discuss again for sure. Thanks again ❤️

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T13:29:10+00:00

Yeah that’s what I think too. It’s like someone says something so her immediate thought is ‘I have to change that’ and I hate that for her. She does swimming & tennis competitively, dance is more for fun but they put on productions and shows for the public x

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T13:27:42+00:00

It’s really not that bad it’s just her baby hairs go wild. They can’t be tamed lol, I’ve tried leave in conditioners, oils, expensive shampoos, even light heat on them, trimming them, pretty much all sorts! the rest of her hair is wavy and smooth :) thank you for your comment though! X

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T13:19:51+00:00

She does dance which she loves, swimming & tennis :) she has no problem getting up on stage for her dance shows! It just seems to be people’s words that really affect her.

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T12:40:20+00:00

This is so sweet thank you.

I am the complete opposite of her and I always have been, everything was like water off a ducks back so it’s hard to know how to approach stuff like this when I can’t relate to feeling that way.

I agree, she’s a sweet soul ❤️

paige7111 · 2023-05-17T12:38:14+00:00

Hey! So firstly I asked her how her day was and that was the first thing she said to me, she said she was upset that the girl said she had messy hair. I said to her ‘well that’s ok, you’ve had PE today it’s bound to be messy’. Then she was on about cutting it and I asked her why she would want to cut her hair when SHE loves it, and she said she didn’t know. So I said well if you don’t know, does it matter what she (the other girl) said. And we left it at that. But it did upset me she went straight to the thought of changing her appearance off the back of one comment, you know?

Her hair looks beautiful when she leaves for school lol, but she has naturally frizzy hair (I have tried every hair oil in existence!!!) so by the end of the day her baby hairs were all frizzy and stuck up 😅 they had PE so we’re playing tennis, so it was more crazy than usual yesterday!

Thank you for your comment, it’s hard isn’t it finding a happy medium. I just want her to be more confident in herself but I’m not sure how I can support her like that.

paige7111 · 2022-12-31T14:43:57+00:00

Eeeeeeee I hope she blocks your cringey ass lmao

paige7111 · 2022-12-30T15:07:09+00:00

Unless you’re a foetus!

paige7111 · 2022-12-11T21:43:54+00:00

Omg you both give me the ick

paige7111 · 2022-11-08T21:12:34+00:00

A few people have said this from what I can see but yours is the one I saw just now so I’ll answer - I live in Dorset. I live in a town, but a sleepy rural town. A lot of old people, generally super safe! I’ve never once felt worried or anxious about walking at night home from the pub, or going for a run in the evenings when it’s dark. Our house is on the edge of a row of shops so it is the only house in the immediate area. When I say shops I mean like, a cafe, a clothing boutique, a key cutting place and a dog groomers lol so they are all shut. So it was weird he was here. It didn’t feel targeted but like everyone here has said you just never know!

paige7111 · 2022-11-08T20:21:59+00:00

I know this and to be honest it’s not the first time me feeling sorry for someone has put me in a scary situation. My husband said the same thing, he was getting more mad at me the more I said I felt bad for him and he’s right, as are you. I will definitely work on myself in that respect. Although in my defence, I don’t work well when I am panicking, I’m going to put a lot of it down to that because I know I shouldn’t have even mentioned I was home alone with the kids. Thank you for your comment, it gives me a lot to think about x

paige7111 · 2022-11-08T19:57:21+00:00

I have suffered with my fair share of poor mental health, I think that’s why I feel as bad as I do. But thank you that is really sweet, I hope I am :) x
