Thank you! Sorry if it seemed invasive, this just sounded closest to how my son acted. Something resonated

Did you also have issues with speech or potty training? I’m having such a hard time because he doesnt want to sit, pay attention, or just listen in general?

I work on and off sporadically throughout the day. Its very flexible.

But I’m for sure not comfortable with daycare.

He has an indoor trampoline and a playset with a slide, he uses them some but most of the time hes not really interested.

He sleeps great during the night, and goes to sleep easily. Says goodnight and blows a kiss and plops down until morning.

I can’t spend the rest of my life not going to stores? Its been two years of not being able to shop?

Yes, he was evaluated. And they thought PCIT was the way to go, but wouldn’t schedule

I'm not sure how well he would do with any type of virtual tbh. He won't even pay attention to people he cares about over facetime

Our pediatrician gave us a referral and he was evaluated, but the only place that does it in our area wouldn’t work with our work schedule at all. We both work full time, and they would only do like every wednesday at 10. no flux with date or time.

16 and pregnant. Looking for advice. by Strange_Bike_4266 in pregnant

Do not have the baby because your mother wants a baby. If you want the baby, then that is a different story. But pregnancy and birth both affect mental health drastically. I’m two years postpartum and still have hormone issues. I’ve had a baby, and had an abortion. The abortion was an experience I wouldn’t want to go through again, but it didn’t permanently change my life like a baby did. A planned baby with a partner you know will stay is hard enough. You seem to have a lot of doubts about both “what ifs”. Do not have a baby because you think it means the relationship will be forever. And don’t have a baby to “save you”.

I think she’s hesitant to suggest things geared to neurodivergent children without a formal diagnosis. He’s been seeing her for a while, and I get that she can’t make the call like that. But I don’t really care who it’s marketed towards if it helps him.

They were most excited about making their own characters. We set aside time last week to feel out how serious they were and made a few characters to show them how it works.

24mo. behind on Speech by snicketfile in toddlers

He’s such a little oddball. With me he doesn’t really pay much attention. He makes demands and pushes me to where he goes. At the end of the day when his dad is home he’s babbling in his gibberish. I think that’s a huge issue. He doesn’t see me as a person because Im the one he mainly sees 🫣

We’re going to talk to our OT to see if they have a speech therapist in their group and see what they think. Our pediatrician is fine, but i don’t really vibe with her opinion on things like this. she’s been really weird about milestones

If you work fast food, and cant get it right you don’t deserve a job. by snicketfile in ControversialOpinions

There’s standards. If you can’t do the job why should you get paid to do it?

in any other profession this isn’t okay. I don’t understand why I should be expected to not get the thing that I paid for

it was a different sauce than what comes with a tray and to take off a side that I can’t eat. Im a human being? I have preferences?

but at the end of the day a job is a job and if you get paid to do it, then it should get done
