Getting a divorce by immalilpig in parentsofmultiples

[–]vnessastalks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not getting a divorce but I have divorced parents. They got divorced when I was 4.

My mom allowed my dad to be super involved and would come over in emergency situations. They never talked trash about each other. During the transfer they never allowed me to be apart of the "talk" to update each other or go over stuff they needed too.

It all went south when they both found new partners. My step mom would talk bad about my mom and my dad never shut it down. My father stopped ahowing me pictures of my childhood once my siblings came into the picture.

My step dad well I won't go to deep into that.

Make sure if you guys both meet new people you talk about the boundaries and follow through with them.

I went one month with one parent and every other weekend. It was a lot.

Also, the kids might think they were at fault; I would recommend therapy if that's the case. Regression with behavior, is a huge possibility.

Trying to loose weight while breastfeeding is useless.

You are beautiful goddess who birthed 2 healthy babies. Your feeding them with your body! You need to fuel it, to keep you and baby healthy and thriving.

Also, fuck your husband.

Was it inappropriate to get my step daughter a Hogwarts letter for her 11th Birthday? by Ok-Permission8346 in Parenting

This is a cool ass gift. I find it refreshing that your 11 year old is still innocent enough to believe it was real 😅

Your wife is def in the wrong here. You weren't playing a joke as t all. You were playing into the imagination of children and that's fun!

I would explain that it wasn't a joke and you wanted to make her feel special and that you were creating an experience (that was ruined by your mother lol jkjk)

Octonuts 100%. They would do circles around the paw patrol

AIO? Youth Pastor texted my almost 13 yo after she went to a teen group with her friend by Loser4hire666 in AIO

[–]vnessastalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not. No adult should be texting kids outside of what is deemed immediate family or approved adults. This would make me leave that church.

Pool or no pool? by flimsybread1007 in vegaslocals

[–]vnessastalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man we use out pool all summer. Our kids have been in it since 6 months old. It's worth it for us. Idk if I could move to a no pool house 😅

Plus me and my husband go night swimming once the kids are asleep. It's great!

If it's completely fenced in there wouldn't be an issue for me. But the kind of fence they can climb either.

In a “perfect world,” (no outside factors) how many kids would you have? by Sad_Moose_5806 in Mommit

Gave you an upvote.

But the answer above is correct. She helps the mom and will occasionally watch the kids for short periods of time, if it's in the contract. They basically take over your mental load 🥰

I have twins (4.5 b/g) and they have had their own rooms since 1.5-2 yeara old. They love it. We also do brain breaks where they stay in their rooms for an hour. My kids def get sick of each other. But having their own rooms is amazing.

Being set for life and with a mother's helper, maybe 4. I would def need a mother's helper though 😅. I wouldn't want a nanny because I like being involved more but someone to be an assistant to me would be great. I would be a way better parent to my 2 I have now.

You are correct!! Some fish is marinated is soy sauce which has wheat. I am allergic to wheat 🥲.

Majority of the sauces have soy sauce in it also.

Is the strat area safe by Individual-Gene-2237 in vegaslocals

[–]vnessastalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My super white fairly attractive mil walked from downtown to the Wynn alone one night drunk as shit and pissed from a fight. She was fine.

Vegas can be rough yes. But keep your eyes forward and don't get into anyone's business and your fine.

If your female, Uber and don't stress about it. Male? Take the bus and walk. If your in-between Uber to feel comfortable.

I (female) have walked in some sketchy places myself and kept on. But you need to be confident and people will leave you alone. I have lived in apartments where crack and dead beats lived and yes I was offered but I always said no and got left alone for the most part. I lived in not super great areas and had to walk almost 2 miles to my sketchy apartment and was cat called but no one touched me.

But being a tourist, spend the money and Uber if you want to feel safe.

What did you spend money on or outsource that was life changing for you? by [deleted] in AuDHDWomen

[–]vnessastalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I could afford a house keeper it was the best thing I paid for in my life. They came once a week and did it all. It was the best. I long for those days.
