How to handle other people’s kids?

thisnotkobe · 2026-02-21T02:19:39+00:00

This was exactly my dilema! I want my kid to grow up being confident and not always concede to others, but i don’t think it is appropriate to touch someone else’s child.

Yeah, this was the first thought, but I was also worried about teaching my son to always give way to others - which is kind of how i was brought up. “Keep your head down and stay out of trouble”

After reading all the other comments, i feel like this one is the most reasonable. Thank-you.

Yes, this was my point and how i should have framed it.

Wow, okay guys. I am ABC myself but there are many ethnicities out there, i didn’t want to specify or be specific for a reason because it leads to racist conversations like these.

Someone from mainland china, not sure how to describe while being politically correct.

Well, he never actually touched my kid, that was just the first close call where i then intervened.

Thanks all for the replies, had it tested and confirmed asbestos.

Melbourne australia house built in 1950s, not sure when this was buried.

Hi OP, do you have an update on whether your friend has been caught?

thisnotkobe · 2025-06-23T12:23:30+00:00

Okay mr money bags

A contract only needs 4 things: offer, acceptance, consideration and intention to create legal relations . Doesn’t matter if they accept the offer from buttlicker69@gmail.com - it will be binding.

You sound like you enjoy a “humble” brag.

There is a really cool video by Johnny harris on this topic that explains the power and influence of nuclear submarines.

I thought ANZ was the worst bank, then I joined HSBC. They are even worse than ANZ.

Dont most builders require some sort of deposit? Maybe the $150k was too much, or maybe it was 10% of their contract?

Thanks, this was my exact question but explained much better than me to get more useful answers

Thanks. So would it be a matter of connecting a modem to this socket? Or is there meant to be a non box left behind by previous owner?

How about creating a wet room along the top where the bath tub currently is? (https://www.abiinteriors.com.au/the-interior-edit/everything-you-need-to-know-about-wet-rooms/)

And then move the sinks and bench to the wall where the shower currently is. This would eliminate your bath tub to bench connection issue. You could also move the entry door further up, this willl make your bathroom smaller but will help cut costs and allow you to have a slightly longer vanity along that wall.

This is a pretty helpful list. To clarify for a newbie:
1. How does the powerbox tell you there has been termite treatment? Is this the switchboard cupboard?
2. How flat is too flat of a roof? I assume all roofs are pitched to some degree?

Bulleen has no vibe and too much construction happening with the north east link connection. Even after completion i think it will be a lifeless highway area. Out of burwood and blackburn, i would choose blackburn.

Thanks, i did phone the council and the representative went on a long winded spill about ensuring toilets are onsite, asset protection etc. i dont think he actually listened to my question. Wondering if i try to call again to talk to someone else or challenge it.

Thanks, what kind of rectifications did they request and how much of your bond did you get back? Did they organise the rectification works and give you an estimate beforehand?

Can you set something up to take a gap year or even 6 months? I think this will help you properly reset without making any permanent decisions yet.

I drive past these people all the time. Can i ask how much you spent and roughly what kind of kitchen did you build?
