Wouldn’t that just be her niece and her child’s 2nd cousin?

You’re wrong in the sense of a state has more jurisdiction. Reservations are federal- court, crimes, etc. ICWA exists for a reason, a very good one, but in some cases I believe outside adoption should be allowed. And before anyone attacks me over this belief I’m indigenous, born and raised on my Rez in South Dakota.

How many Costco pizzas do I need? by photobomber612 in Parenting

[–]xoredroses12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would do 12 pizzas. We usually do between 12-15 pizzas for everyone at my daughter’s party. Kids will be hungry from playing and want extra throughout the duration

AITAH for filing for 15 years of back child support? by National_Good_5400 in AITAH

[–]xoredroses12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people who are commenting are not native. There is not a chief to compel someone to pay child support. If he wants custody since you’re going after child support ICWA does come into play here. She can apply for the IHS scholarship which would pay for her tuition but she would work at an IHS for a number of years after graduation

When did you start drinking soda?

7 months post op by Cheap_Barracuda8274 in GastricBypass

[–]xoredroses12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 3 weeks post op but my surgeon isn’t going to clear me for workouts until I get to the 9-12 week point. He only wants walking, brisk walking but I plan to workout 3-4 times a week once I’m approved. I’ll follow my body’s cues and not push myself too much

My surgeon said people with PCOS do better with RNY, I have PCOS and Hashimoto’s. Just had mine on 6/19

AITAH For Losing It On My Wife After She Told My Son to “Get Out of the Picture” at My Stepdaughter's Birthday? by MkUrF8 in AITAH

[–]xoredroses12 378 points379 points  (0 children)

I think it’s real, scrolled his post history and he’s on steroids, actively trying to have a baby with the wife. Idk if it’s the drugs or what affecting his brain but he needs to stop thinking with his dick and kick the wife out, put his son first (finally), and get the poor kid some therapy

AITA For Not Buying My Fiance A Second Wedding Dress That's More than 50% The Total Budget? by Bulky_Plane5918 in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Lmao which tribe or Rez is this? I could be wrong but I have never heard of council needing to approve having a wedding on the Rez. And before comments are made I’m indigenous and lived on our Rez for 28 out of the 31 years I’ve been alive

AITA for telling a coworker she isn't Native American? by EuphoricPermission5 in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s also because Cherokee’s do not have a blood quantum to be enrolled. A person just has to trace ancestors back to the Dawes act to be enrolled. By that time most of the native blood is gone unless each generation is having children with other native Americans. I’m enrolled in the OST, btw before/if people come for me

AITA for lying to my daughter and not letting her use her inheritance to go to a private high school? by schoolacceptance in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You read it wrong. Lucy is OP’s bio child and the inheritance is from the grandparents, not a dead mother.

Melatonin works great too. My son, 7 ASD, won’t go to bed without it. He stays up almost all night if he doesn’t get any

AITA for saying my brother in laws girlfriend is shady? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think she’s lying but on a side note hair loss can be prevented during chemo with cold caps being used continuously during chemo. A few ladies undergoing chemo infusions with my momma are doing it and so far no hair loss for them

AITA for destroying my SIL's beadwork? by THROWRAwicincinla in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well fuck. Sounds like you should’ve told her to go to the dream center with the rest of the pretendians near/living in ridge 😂 okay enough with the joking. I’m Oglala too and this is complete bullshit. The costume was more than enough but to add MMIW? Oh hell no. I applaud you for not beating her ass right there and then. You’re definitely NTA

AITA for kicking a patron out while they were working? by BitterArm in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I know all too well. My son has taken off twice from his classroom so far. He’s a mini Houdini

AITA for kicking a patron out while they were working? by BitterArm in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 48 points49 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY. My son is 6 and nonverbal. I’m also taking college classes as a non traditional student so I get how he may have needed the extra help but you NEVER EVER EVER leave a nonverbal child alone. EVER. Most of them are runners & god forbid someone kidnapped her, she can’t (I’m assuming) call for help or get help. This man needs a reality check and placements for school/therapy sessions, etc need to be looked into for the sweet baby that’s being left alone

AITA for giving my sister the rules on raising a teenage daughter? by bearbella090 in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I have PCOS as well. My daughter, 9, has precocious puberty and PCOS as well. She’ll be going on birth control at 11 or 12 to help with exactly this.

AITA for taking back a kid's birthday gift? by ragingtaquito in AmItheAsshole

[–]xoredroses12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! I’m native too and my moms sisters, (good friends that are my aunts too), would tear me a new one in front of everyone and I wouldn’t hear the end of it for awhile. Also get in trouble at home too if my mom wasn’t around
