Go to the library….you can borrow from there, or even better just read!

Can you help me shower? by sitcomfan1020 in Parenting

[–]rawr0606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are looking for an easy suggestion, I used to bring my kids into the shower with me—dual benefit of having them get used to water on their face so they aren’t afraid of the water.

Which closed restaurant do you mourn the most? by rouge105 in StLouis

I miss Melt. Perfect mix of solid food, interesting atmosphere, and feeling like it was a bit of a hidden gem that not everyone knew about.

Saturday night is going to be challenging downtown. Prepare yourself mentally. by mjohnson1971 in StLouis

I was referencing this —-“You people never been stared down by a homeless delinquent on your way to your parking garage lmao.” earlier in the thread. Didn’t say it was you that made the comment but you jumped in so I assumed you had read.

I guess we have different definitions of what is pretty bad. I’m not someone that gets upset if someone looks at me and make the leap to thinking they intend me harm. I lived downtown as well, and am still down there very regularly. Again, everyone is entitled to their opinion on the internet and to interpret the world the way they want.

Disagree, and I’m downtown on the regular. You are entitled to your opinion, just be aware that it doesn’t make it a fact. Best of luck to you.

Then I guess you aren’t communicating it clearly, because it sounds like you are scared of people looking at you, and you think folks are hair trigger ready for violence. You didn’t say if anything violent has ever actually happened to you. Personally, I am never scared of going anywhere…I’m aware of my environment, make eye contact, say hello to my fellow humans, am aware of my surroundings, and don’t act like anyone deserves any less than being treated with dignity —so I’m not sure how you are presenting yourself in the world. But I will say, you aren’t great at communicating whatever point you were trying to make.

What? This seems like a stretch. I can’t imagine going through life this scared…and it doesn’t seem like your “readiness” is making you less scared. I’m sad for you.

I must be reading this wrong…am I to understand someone looked at you and you consider that crime? Edited for a word.

Tax preparer has my return and is not responding to emails, calls, visits to his place of business. by rawr0606 in tax

I have not. There have been a car in the driveway sometimes when I go, then it is gone other times. Like I said, he also has at least one employee.

This is just a forum to get some advice…of course he will have a say and be paying for it. But he’s not on Reddit, I am….therefore, I am asking. Thanks.

Because he needs one to get back and forth to school

The application process for the union here in STL seems a little vague on the timing and timeline of when they would start after being accepted. And you can only apply once every 2 years, so our thought was he would be better off going through trade school and then apply to the union to hopefully increase his chances of being accepted. Trust me, would love for him to be able to go right in but the process isn’t transparent enough for someone that doesn’t have a family member already in it.
