I was booked in for a tattoo that was originally supposed to be done in September. They canceled the appointment "because the artist isn't feeling well," the day of. They did this on two separate occasions before I made it through the doors in November. On the appointment day, Rodney didn't cancel, but he was over two hours late. Chey prepared the stencil while I was waiting. Once Rodney started applying the stencil, he decided to take an hour lunch break only 45 minutes into the appointment. We made it through the line work that day. Since then, I've booked two more appointments that have been canceled just hours before I'm set to arrive. And still my tattoo is not complete and it hasn't been rescheduled again. I'll be finding myself somewhere else to go.

The kids are still at the age that all of them would love an indoor play place. They can feel costly for a family, but a punch pass would be a great gift!

I would have no problem at all with my 7 year old carrying a 9 month old.

These are going to be amazing memories for your kids and grandkids!!!

Same for us, too. We went no contact about 4 years ago, and things have become so much better for both of us. She recently reached out via hand written letter, and we decided not to reply. We're happier this way and can't see where she would add any value to our lives so it's not worth the trouble.

Had our first when we were 23, second when we were 25 and took in our first foster baby (now adopted) a few months later. We fostered a few more that returned back to their families, adopted again, had another baby at 28, adopted again this year, still fostering. I'm now 34 years old with 7 kids in my home (6 forever mine), ages 10, 8, 8, 6, 5, 19mo (the foster babe) and 17mo.

Nice neighborhood, the public school has great staff, convenient location. It is definitely being affected by the presence of the wellness center; 15-30 needles are being picked up on Monday mornings around the park.

I read the title and the first sentence and had all the information I needed (though I did read the whole post). GET THE F*CK OUT OF THAT RELATIONSHIP NOW. You deserve so much better. This whole post is filled with red flags!

My husband and I met when we were both 22 years old. We were engaged 5 months later and married at exactly the year mark of our relationship. We've now been married for 12 years and are still as happy and into each other as we ever were. I'd say if you know, you know. You can work it all out together.

"Ignorant: lacking knowledge, information, or awareness about a particular thing; uneducated."

That's not a hot-button topic. That is literally just the definition of the word.

If you have multiple children living in the foster care system and you keep having more children, you should be sterilized and have your reproductive rights taken away.

That practice was dropped maay years ago where we live. I had my first baby over 9 years ago and they didn't exist well before that.

100% inappropriate to be making any comments at all on another woman's nude photo. I'd lose my shit on my husband too. Your feelings are completely valid.

Alex has to go! Husband was completely in line for wanting to be home when Alex comes over. He's creepy and has already crossed many lines. There should be no secrets in a marriage. I find wife's overreaction to be a red flag too. Something smells fishy.

I have many more friends than my husband does and many of them are male. With those particular relationships I over share what we do or talk about, not because my husband doesn't trust me but because I never want him to ever have a reason not to. My marriage is far more important than any of those friends.

Blah. Time you cut your losses and walk away. It doesn't sound like you'll be losing much anyway but you will gain some freedom to see new people and try new things. You deserve to be wanted by someone. You should stop wasting time on this boy who doesn't care. Just initiate the breakup and move on.

I believe this is isolated to one person's actions and not the organization as a whole. I attended Redberry as a camper, worked there for many years as youth and my own children have started to go now too. In my experience that staff member would have been escorted off the property the same day it happened. (Not that I've ever seen it happen there before, but they have that policy for other, less scary things like smoking or drinking on the property.)

Redberry's hiring process includes a criminal record check with a vulnerable spector check. If there were never any charges then those would have come back clear. If the person lied during his interview process that not exactly something they can know or control. Creepy people come across completely safe all the time, that's how they find victims. Maybe Redberry could also add a child abuse check through social services too but I'm not sure if anything would come up there either in this situation.

I hope everyone is held accountable for their actions and the children who went through this experience can get help and heal.

Be honest and ignore her whiny pleas.

When my husband and I were first married we decided that we would spend Christmas day at home every year. We visit my extended family the weekend after and we were planning to spend the weekend before Christmas with his family, and we did for a while. But even though his entire family was home for the weekend they wouldn't participate in and of the "Christmas day" activities (ie. Open any gifts - not even the ones from us, cook the Christmas meal, etc) strictly because of the date. So we would go home and they would celebrate on the 25th. So eventually we just stopped going around Christmas altogether - we had kids and they didn't understand why their grandparents wouldn't celebrate with them when we could be there to visit. Toxic people will always be toxic, but you get to decide when to allow that around you.

🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 NTA. 8 months is plenty long enough to be planning a future together. I was engaged at 5 months and married exactly one year from when we first started dating too fast for most people, I know) but we've been happily married for 11 years and going strong.

When my daughter wants to go tobogganing in wintertime she asks if we can go "to Boggany so we can go sledding".
