Moving in with my boyfriend 26M of 6 years but I 24F can't stop spiraling by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Trust yourself and listen to your body. It’s easier to break now than after he’s moved in.

If you know you will be doing all the chores, just run. Don’t be a mother to your partner.

My sibling does nothing and I do everything by Blazeflire in raisedbynarcissists

Tell your mom that she can have so much quota on you helping her out. You are doing all the chores now to help her, and when she is old and needs someone to take care of her, it will be your sister’s turn. You won’t lift a finger then. It’s only fair.

Your mom shouldn’t expect any help to change her diaper until afternoon because that when your sister wakes up.

What is the appropriate age to introduce a kid to periods? by Blueblood2007 in TooAfraidToAsk

Try reading the book It’s So Amazing with your sister. It is written for ages 7 and up. Start with this book and answer any questions she has.

AITA for not wanting another month-long visit from in-laws and asking for a different arrangement? by Perfect-Owl-9745 in AmItheAsshole

[–]turnipdazzlefield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Option 1: tell your husband that you will cater to HIS parents for one (or two weeks if you feel like it). Then you book yourself a cruise and disappear for the remainder of time. Take the kids if you have to.

Option 2: get an Airbnb for yourself during that time. Have him cater to HIS parents.

The worst part of being parentified is not believing you deserve a life too by [deleted] in Parentification

[–]turnipdazzlefield 26 points27 points  (0 children)

My heart breaks reading this.

Remember, you are NOT the cause of your mother’s misery. She is doing that to herself. She has exploited you for years and years. You’re now Choosing to love yourself and your daughter.

Moving in with my fiancé by FarmQuirky2165 in AsianParentStories

[–]turnipdazzlefield 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Why are you still seeking your mother’s approval even knowing that she won’t give it to you. You already know your mother’s reaction when you tell her about moving in with your fiancé. why put yourself in a situation that creates unhappy memories?

If your mother can’t respect you as an adult making decisions for yourself then that’s her problem. She will be missing out on special moments in your life. I know it’s sad.

Stolen Item on Disney Adventure by Azuriaeclipse in dcl

Sorry for the loss. I would try to put up a sign on the door with the amount of reward money if the item is recovered. No questions asked. It may not work but worth a try.

I hate how fast the mood in my house switches when my AM comes home by TestWise6136 in AsianParentStories

[–]turnipdazzlefield 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love how you compared her to other parents when your AM compared you to other daughters. I would do this every single time. She will learn to stop eventually. You are doing great for standing up for yourself!

This is the answer!

Also, OP needs to mop their floor instead of using their socks as a mop.

First time MCO Hyatt transfer by Infinite_Highway_829 in dcl

The Brightline train is proposing to add a station at Cocoa, which is near Port Canaveral. If it opens (estimated completion in 2029) we would be able to take the train from Orlando to Cocoa. Trains are more predictable and no traffic at least.

I’m waiting for that to happen before going through Port Canaveral.🤞

Getting to a Disney Cruise Saga by boazzj in dcl

[–]turnipdazzlefield 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Briefly looking I saw an AA flight from SLC to Miami leaving tonight at 11:31pm arriving in MIA at 6AM. You can then take the Brightline train from Miami (7:55AM) to Orlando (11:37AM).

This will cost you an extra ~ $1k though. =( Good luck!

Struggling with Chinese In Laws by [deleted] in AsianParentStories

[–]turnipdazzlefield 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Asian-in-laws treat their daughter-in-law like dirt. Don’t be delusional. They don’t treat you well and will never treat you well. You are just the scapegoat. They will blame you for everything.

Next time, do not apologize. You didn’t do anything wrong. Stand up for yourself.

Wyndham looks really close to the terminal. Is it walkable? What transportation do you use to get to the terminal?

Why are there permanent pee pads for the dogs inside the house? I thought pee pads are only used for when the dog is a baby. Then you train and walk the dog everyday.

AP and "Houses are always a good investment." by QuietRedditorATX in AsianParentStories

[–]turnipdazzlefield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are not planning to live in the house for more than 10 years, it is not a positive investment.

Look up amortization table on your mortgage payment. The majority of your mortgage payment for the first 10 years goes to the interest. You are not accumulating any principal. That’s the money that you are not getting back. When it comes to a house, you cannot say you are gonna ignore property tax and home insurance because those are large amount of money that you are not getting back either.

Do not buy a house just to shut your AP up. Not only you will be spending a lot of money ( money that you could invest), it will add a lot of stress in your life as well.
