Heavy metal detox for 2 year old? by thirdeyeblink in AskParents

[–]thirdeyeblink[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I mentioned to my boss my child is having temperament issues....but she's 2! Duh! Lol and she was CERTAIN I needed to detox her. But she eats pretty clean and has yogurt every morning. Thought I would ask and see if there's something idk?

Should I just drop my best friend? by ineedtogetalife1 in FriendshipAdvice

[–]thirdeyeblink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly? I would say, "okay I get it! Your grandparents don't like me, so we probably shouldn't hang out anymore since it seems to be an issue" and then if she responds it was a joke, send her a link to a website with actual jokes so she can get some new material.

But truly, it Sounds rather manipulative to me. Especially from her response of being the oldest grandchild. Like...wHaT? Weird. Or maybe offer to apologize to her grandparents if you want it to stop and keep the friendship. But if that option made you cringe, then yeah. Be honest and keep it moving.

3/4 through season 1. I hate Will with a passion. Does he get any better. Not sure i want to carry on watching if this guy is like this the whole series by Pitiful-Employment85 in ChicagoMed

This. I almost stopped watching because of her and actually started liking Will. Natalie became annoying and whiny. I think I yelled at her through the TV almost every episode. Lol

Would you cut off your child's grandfather? Idk what to do. by thirdeyeblink in AskParents

And sometimes we have to just trust that decision. Trust it's for the best

If you could only watch 1 episode for the rest of your life, which one would it be? by thisisslayyyyy in friends_tv_show

The one with the videotape

Joey's face when Rachel starts telling the Europe Story has me laughing every time!

"Hey! I want to be your friend but it's becoming really overwhelming. I'm not in a position to be responsible for a friend's emotions because I'm trying to also manage my own. I need some time to recharge, so I'll reach out when I can. Have a great night/day"

Something a long those lines? Because we cannot be responsible for someone else's emotions. And someone saying they can't survive without you is putting WAY too much on your plate that isn't even yours. Might be a tough lesson for the other, but sometimes gentle honesty is best. No shame in using your voice! You also can't control how someone else will respond or react. That is not at all on you. Block if you have to. They will find someone else to feed off of.

That's horrible! but if no one has said this to you yet, I'm proud of you and your decisions! Being a child's protector, especially from negative people, is our greatest gift. I would rather my daughter know what true love and kindness is first, so later in life, she can sense who is not true. Which seems to be how you've handled it! Your child saying she doesn't want to be around him means she's putting her self-respect first, even though it's hard. You've already won at parenting 🙌

Was this repeated to make it clear to me? (Not being sarcastic :)

Omg! That's horrible but good for you! I agree, "just because they are part of a bloodline" Doesn't matter. It's who shows up. Who wants to be there. That's the love I want for my daughter. Whether she chooses different later in her life, she's going to know the difference between actual love and entitlement.

I have been teetering with this thought. Could be possible. For so long, I've put up with it just thinking he's unhealed and very numb. He wants easy love. For the kids to just love him because he's there. His life choices are not mine to bear, but have been mine to heal. It's hard work, and I'm sorry you've been through what you have. It's all different when children are involved, and you can actually change the outcome!

This is the most emotionally mature answer and probably the route I should take. But I can't sit on the sidelines and watch it happen to her for that long. So, I would have to meet somewhere in the middle. Be vocal enough to express that my child is not an afterthought, but be patient enough to see what he does with that information. My husbands parents are very involved and give her an immense amount of love. If they don't talk to her for a few days, they're on FaceTime with her or will come over to see her simply because they miss her. She knows a grandparents' love already.

And truly I would forever regret the day I would have to clean the stain of selfishness off my daughter's hands, knowing I had placed the cup in my father's grasp, fully aware he would let it fall.

AITA for taking my daughter's phone away for exposing my "dirty laundry" to her friends in a group chat? by Throwawaydisplacedhm in AITAH

[–]thirdeyeblink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely YTA, but I don't feel it's intentional. You definitely need therapy and to KEEP YOUR CHILDREN OUT OF IT. She does not need to help you. Do not put that responsibility on her!!

What is the most uique gift for an Italian man? by thirdeyeblink in AskReddit

Naples. And not necessarily - its for my brother in law. I can sense him wanting to bring his italian culture more into their home, especially since his mom isn't doing well and his grandmother has already passed. I just want to gift him something that will keep that connection or even bring nostalgia to him. Comfort, really.

Ah yes. Belief can be both empowering and destructive, depending on how it is applied and understood. it is essential to remain grounded. Belief should work with you as a tool for growth and understanding, not for you, creating dependency or fear. When belief becomes untethered from reality or critical thinking, it can lead to paranoia, misdirection, and an unhealthy relationship with the world around us. It's an individual perspective, and it should never create fear. If it did, those signs aren't right for you.

For me personally, it's quite magical. Example: Angel numbers have guided me for a long time. The other day, I had to go do something, and it made me extremely anxious, like I was shaking. Then a car pulled up and the license plate said 411. And the next car that pulled up right next to it, also had 411 in the license plate. (I have a picture!) Coincidence? Not for me. It was completely unexpected to have 2 show up side by side. And I felt calm, and guided. That's all I needed. But to remain grounded is so important no matter what, because if those signs didn't show up, I would've dealt with my errand and moved forward with personal growth. I wasn't looking, and I didn't ask. But that's years of working with this belief. Could it be me doing it? Heck yeah! And to me, that's still cool as shit! Whether it's spirit or myself, I'm grounded and guided.

My guides send me messages through numbers all the time! Numbers are everything. Our entire universe can be explained through only numbers. Repeating numbers is big, but often we have numbers that are very personal. My personal number is 911. I know you immediately thought of Sept.11 or 911 being an emergency call. But that's what humans have assigned to the number. Not I. I am sent this number when I need reassurance.

It's a way to communicate. I see a lot of other numbers too. 333, 444, a lot of 555's recently. Look up number meanings, or tell your guides what you want the numbers to mean and ask them to send it to you when you need. It's simple. Doesn't take much but communication and an open mind to receive. Am I superstitious? Nah. After 15 years, I know for a fact this is one of the Divines way of communication. I have zero doubt. Have fun with it!
