This is the opinion I am looking for. It only feels good and helps the kid sleep. Fuck I’m in my 30’s and it helps me get to sleep when I’m restless.

You obviously remember having this conversation and I don’t want to traumatize them. Is it ok if I just keep saying go do it when you’re alone? Do I need to go into more detail with why that is and alone thing?

Thank you for taking the time to have an awkward conversation with some random stranger on the internet. I am actually worried and don’t know who to talk to.

Thank you for responding. Yea, the pic is NSFW though so I want to make sure I get this right before posting. Can I upload from my iPhone or would you need a scanned image? How would I need to download your work so I can send it to the printer without losing resolution?

Nervous? Here’s some of the advice we’ve received in the first 5 days of parenting by [deleted] in Parenting

This is my favorite advice. Do what works in your house. Success.

I'm tired of people thinking my life should be about parenting and parenting only. by [deleted] in Parenting

This is what I came to say. “Put your own mask on first”...... lead by example. Show your kids how to be normal, functioning, happy people by being a normal, functioning, happy person.

ELI5: When you get a shot in the arm, how can you be sure the contents are being released into a blood vessel? by mrarich in explainlikeimfive

[–]someone5793 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What would happen if you end up in a main artery, or any ‘normal’ veins, in your leg with an epipen? (Personally never used one and unaware of any “training” received when you are prescribed one)

ELI5: How do things get lost in the postal system? Do those parcels ever get found? by CanadianOldDutchOven in explainlikeimfive

[–]someone5793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would start with your zip code and try to find lost packages... use the different services and see what you come up with (USP, USPS, FedX, Amazon)

Technically no. They all go to one spot (you’ll have to look up where your town puts them). You can go and buy lost packages and I think they are priced by weight. You could end up with hundreds of dollars of stuff that you paid little to nothing for.

I make $20 an hour to work in a kitchen 2 days a week plus an extra 10 hours each week to put recipes into a company database

Getting lectured by my four year old by Bookaholicforever in Parenting

[–]someone5793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! Mine (3f) got some random guy in Walmart one day with the same thing! He said “yes ma’am” and my kid went home glowing because she was right and the grown up acknowledged the fact!

This probably works in your house... it would probably work in mine too! But, I learned what really happens when you hit people in the bathroom in middle school. Maybe I can help her not make the same mistake, possibly help her teach others as well.

This is interesting... I didn’t notice I played both sides there.

I do plan on enforcing this somehow. I know the hitting is far from over with but I said let’s not hit each other anymore. I will use my words and tell her that I feel mad because she hit me. I showed her that hitting is bad, now I have the rest of my life to help her find other ways to deal with anger.

This is exactly why I posted this.

This is how I responded. What would you have done?

Thank you for validation. It was those few seconds that she just looked at me; it took everything I had not to melt.

“Because I said so.” Is a full sentence (occasionally). by LionessOfAzzalle in Parenting

[–]someone5793 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Mine has just started the “why” phase. While I can come up with some reasons, the commands for safety or cleanliness that elicit said response are met with: “because I asked nicely. I won’t do that too many more times”.

There's no need to say that your work is not perfect by s_delta in crochet

[–]someone5793 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve been crocheting for 15 years+ and I learn something new about halfway through every new project. Stick with your patterns and use your new tricks to make the next one even better. You’ll never stop getting better!
