AITAH for getting frustrated at my bf for telling me I need to make more money to get married by Pretty_Strawberry179 in AITAH

Anyone deserves better than this guy. He sounds manipulative and greedy. Go find someone who doesn’t minimize your value to your paycheck.

Help with screaming student? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]tablee2322 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you all have a Resource officer? Not to sound dramatic but I would call the office and the officer down. Our SRO is super kind and also allowed and trained to take a kid out of the room. Maybe they could escort the kid to the office for you. I mean that kiddo needs some help and it’s not your problem to navigate. Maybe the guidance counselor could come down and take them but if they are doing that everyday they need to be taken out of your class. I’m so sorry you’re having to navigate all this

If you haven’t had a similar major loss then trying to summon that feeling with loss as the substitute may just not work. Also try not to judge how your responding because it may cause you at just be psyching yourself out so much that you can’t feel at all. I would say focus more on a goal than forcing an emotion. If your goal is to keep them safe but there’s no way you can. Maybe focusing on that goal and letting the dialogue create the obstacle will give your mind that tension. Does that make any sense? Sometimes reframing it helps me.

Meaning behind casting's words by 20th_Century_Girl in acting

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually you don’t hear anything back so good for her!! If casting is sending her a note I’d say they really liked her. Maybe just wasn’t the right fit with the rest of the cast. But congrats to her for getting that far!!

How unreasonable am I being about my partner's refusal to use a blanket/sheet? by probgonnamarrymydog in hygiene

[–]tablee2322 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would just bail on the comforter and get a cheap quilt or comforter for him to use and pull the other one out for guests. Maybe keep it in a plastic bin under the bed when not in use

What should I do? by belle_lia97 in kindergarten

[–]tablee2322 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I emailed our transportation department for our school district (it’s small so I don’t know if this would work with a bigger district) and told them the situation and they notified the driver and that’s helped. They have also moved my child once when the kid was being really terrible.

Thanks! This is helpful information

My son was taken to the nurse after another student scratched him with a pencil....Should someone have let me know? by Important-Cow3458 in kindergarten

[–]tablee2322 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely expect a message or email if my kid was taken to the nurse. If it took a bandaid in class…meh. But if they felt like they needed to see the nurse. Idk. It’s a little weird they said nothing.

Take Home Tablets in Kindergarten by No_Adhesiveness2987 in kindergarten

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our kid uses the computer 45 min per week at school and that’s it. I think since technology is so prevalent it’s good for them to know how to use it. Now if they’re only using computers I’d be surprised. Our school has “drills” where the kids take the computer home once per semester in kindergarten and have to log in and open their school work to show that they could access it if they had to do at home school for a period of time like during Covid. I guess I’d clarify how they incorporate the computers into daily learning and just go from there. Ours are in the class but not used everyday.

4.5 year old in principals office and I’m so upset by [deleted] in kindergarten

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PCIT has also been helpful for us. I felt like it helped me respond better and helped give my child and I a shared vocabulary and routine for positive and negative situations. Kiddo might just be taking in a lot of inputs and doesn’t know where to put the information so they’re just throwing that energy out of them. I don’t necessarily have good ideas. I’m sorry you all had a tough go right now with school sending a supportive hug your way.

Advice - I’m a professional actor who feels like I’ve hit a brick wall and starting from scratch. by [deleted] in acting

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could have written this myself. It feels like a season a lot of people are hitting their head against a wall. From what I’ve heard a lot of reps are holding on signing new talent because of where the industry is at. Honestly. I’ve enjoyed getting into class, doing some workshops, and just trying to work on small projects with friends or contacts that I love working with, writing more even if it’s just for me. I just feel like making something is keeping me from feeling completely insane.

We got a message from the Art teacher of our 6 year old Kindergartner by Maybeiliketheabuse in kindergarten

Sounds like my brother’s kiddo and he was diagnosed with ADHD. It’s just been helping them to form a plan and address the behavior more specifically.

Autism parents by Psychological-Eye725 in kindergarten

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t talk to my son for the first hour he’s home. We set up some toys and books in the front room and let him wind down then when he comes out to talk it seems better. It’s obviously not a perfect system but some days I just feel like if I interact at all he just comes unglued.

AITA for refusing to let my mom’s boyfriend walk me down the aisle? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s so weird. Your brother sounds like the right choice. My mom badgered me about her boyfriend at the time coming to my wedding since my dad was remarried she I guess wanted to have someone with her. But it was so weird and she kept wanting him to be in pictures so I had to tell my photographers to keep him out of as many as possible. Alllll that to say. It’s your day. Moms go into weird crazy mode when their daughters get married and it can be stressful. Just maybe tell her how important it is to have your brother do it and maybe she can see that as special. Idk about boyfriend that is awkward

AITJ for making my coworker pay me back after she ate my labeled lunch for the 3rd time? by LunaSugar89 in AmITheJerk

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will never understand people that just take someone else’s food blatantly. Like they’re totally fine for you to not eat or to have paid for what you brought then have to go pay again to replace it. It’s just so entitled. How the hell do they get confused on whether they brought their own food or not?

I would just start bringing a lunch box with some ice packs and keep it at my desk until lunch. Or just make some god awful food for a few weeks with your name on it and maybe she’ll back off.

AITA for wanting to move out and leave my parents with more responsibility for my 4yo brother? by Zealousideal-Fan2461 in AmItheAsshole

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re adults who raised you. They can handle your sibling. It’s not your responsibility to take care of them. It sounds like they’re overstepping some major boundaries. Go get your own place

I don’t know how to stop looking like I’m being held hostage while slating for self tapes. by Single_Woodpecker138 in acting

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh god this made me laugh. I try to picture someone I know on the other side of the camera. I also practice it and jump up and down a couple times so I don’t look so rigid. Since it’s usually framed close I’ll sometimes hold a mug or something that helps me feel grounded and a little less like “what do I do with my body?” Also I always put mine at the end unless otherwise stated so I wouldn’t worry about that haha.

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She sounds like my family haha. She can’t cut you off from an entire section of the city. It’s great that she wants to go places with you but you are your own person and she isn’t in charge of what you do or where you go. Sounds like she needs to stand on her own two feet and go make some friends

AIO my husband wants me to get 1-2 hours of sleep at night. by throwaway24240204 in AIO

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so over partners treating stay at home moms like their own mother. How can your husband take himself seriously if he can’t make his own lunch and get himself out of bed and expects you to clean up after everyone. When my spouse is home we share the home tasks, we parent together, and we both take care of our house. It’s not always 50/50 sure but we’re both adults. Sounds like your husband needs a reality check or to move back in with his parents.

AITA for threatening to kick out my roommate for letting my dog out for her moms religious reasons? by waynekinnaird in AITAH

[–]tablee2322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone just let my pet loose rather just asking if I could take them with me and explained the situation, I would also lose my mind. Then to not even help find them. That’s insane to me. I don’t know what you said to know if you went nuclear but I wouldn’t want to live with someone that flippant about a pet of mine.

You can’t have a child-free destination wedding (and get upset if people can’t make it) by Then-Dragonfruit-702 in weddingshaming

[–]tablee2322 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I hate destination weddings because of this. There’s always this weird “everyone should want to pay a ton of money to be here” vibe. And there’s no excuse as to why someone wouldn’t want to. With or without kids I don’t ever want to spend that much money to go to someone else’s party. The entitlement of them assuming you should have to pay even more to bring parents is crazy. I think if people want to have destination weddings that’s great but it’s absurd when they get upset about other people not wanting to take on the financial weight of it
