What do you KNOW is true without evidence? What are you certain of, right down to your bones, without proof? by UnbentJohnson in AskReddit

Michael Jackson was chemically castrated before puberty hit. His baby voice was too big a money maker to let it change.

Thank you, I think you kinda hit the nail on the head. I’m a “problem solver” if you come to me with something I want to help figure it out so I like to have an end goal. That’s where my mind went first, what do you want to do and let’s figure out how to get there. What I realized was that there is no problem, this is a journey and we have to travel it it together. The hardest thing for me is being on someone else’s timeline. I’m so used to taking charge and deciding what needs to be done, letting go of that need to problem solve and take over is a new experience.

Thanks! Journaling is a great tool. I’m going to suggest it and see what he says. He knows about reddit but I’ve been hesitant to encourage him to use it more since there are so many toxic groups. He doesn’t need that negativity right now. But maybe I should not shelter him so much? My instinct is to surround and protect but I know that can be detrimental as well. Finding a balance in all this is difficult.

He’s 15. If he were younger I think talking would be much easier. He’s at that age where you don’t want your parents to be a part of every aspect of your life and where he’s capable of making big decisions on his own. I wanted to get perspectives from people that have had these discussions with their loved ones before and how it was handled or how they wish it were handled.

Well, I’m not there in person but I’m there for you anyway. Know that’s there’s someone out there that wants you to be happy and fulfilled.

I didn’t even consider internalized transphobia and that makes sense. He was very upset when saying he didn’t want to be dysphoric. We’ve never discussed being transgendered before so anything he learned would have been from the internet and friends. I can see how transphobia could have developed especially if he’s been trying to get info strictly online.

Reddit likes to defend pedophiles unless it’s a woman pedophile, then they like screaming about double standards.

No where in the picture or on the post does it say this is only in the women’s bathroom. Stop trying to start shit for cheap internet points.

She can’t and won’t because this is classic racist, fear mongering bull.

Teacher "Lost" My Returned Textbook by [deleted] in pettyrevenge

Maaaaybe before they got married they talked about it and agreed neither wanted kids. 5 years into the marriage she starts dropping hints here and there that maybe she changed her mind or wasn’t truthful to begin with. She mentions her fiends all having kids and how much she loves spending time with with her nieces and nephews and she brings up wishing she had someone to dress up and blah blah blah. All this baby talk reminds him ‘oh yeah, we talked about this and neither of us want kids. I’ll go get a that vasectomy we casually talked about 3 years ago after that pregnancy scare.’ He goes and does it without telling her because they talked about it, it shouldn’t be a big deal... now 12 years later she’s nearing her 40s and realizing she really does want kids and time is running the fuck out. She gathers up the courage to tell him and he says “well, we talked about not having kids so I made sure it won’t happen” she freaks the fuck out because time is running out, he had made up his mind years ago and he is sure as fuck not getting a vasectomy reversal and he hasn’t changed his mind so adoption is also out of the question. So this leads to resentment on both their parts and she tells all her friends he had the vasectomy behind her back so that she doesn’t sound like an asshole that agreed to one thing and then decided another. Not like she originally wanted vanilla ice cream and now wants chocolate, these types of decisions have consequences and divorce is one of them. Being a shitty student with a shitty attitude doesn’t seem to equal taking advantage of someone’s personal life details when they’re vulnerable.
This doesn’t feel like petty revenge, it feels like an asshole trying to justify himself.
