    If your Kid were a straight-A student but also skipped school 2-3 days a week, what would you do?

    @godblessed777 But you still are required to actually be in school. Your school has attendance mandates. They post the work online for those missing due to illness, travel, sports, things like that. They don’t post it so that some freshman who thinks they know everything can skip 60% of the...

    If your Kid were a straight-A student but also skipped school 2-3 days a week, what would you do?

    @godblessed777 I’d be very curious how your parents haven’t ended up in truancy court, honestly. You are legally required to attend school in some form or fashion (online, homeschool, or in person). You can just skip 60% of your days without repercussions.

    6 y.o. with anxiety

    @amm87 You really need to find him a team. He needs a psychiatrist because meds could really help him here. He needs a psychologist and probably a licensed therapist as well for play therapy.

    If you could turn back time, would you still have a child?

    @fudge No. She’s 11 1/2. And no. I wouldn’t. Though if I didn’t have her I’d probably have more than one with someone else. I always thought I wanted more than one.

    Do your kids like your ex's significant other? Why or why not? Are you ok with their relationship?

    @tchiakovsky If my kid is happy, so am I. Unfortunately, my kid calls me crying almost every day over something that goes on between her and dad’s fiancé. So I just can’t like her.

    “It’s like you don’t want to cook anymore” MAYBE I DON’T!

    @de_maria I hate cooking. My husband knows this. So he knows he better be happy with whatever I come up with for dinner, even if what I come up with is ordering DoorDash on his phone 😂

    What am I doing wrong ?

    @ricksmith Yes I understand he’s not complying but if he gets a paycheck, they can take money from his paycheck before he even gets it. It doesn’t matter what he does. If the IRS is aware of his income, they can get your child support. Of course this is assuming you’re in the US.

    What am I doing wrong ?

    @ricksmith Go to court and ask for wage withholding. If he quits his job you can’t do much but if he’s working above the table they’ll garnish his checks.

    Are we being unreasonable?

    @saveoursoul Your partner is not really a part of this equation, I’m sorry to say. And I get it. Bc my husband is basically the only stable dad my kid has had her whole life. But, he still doesn’t dictate how my coparenting goes. Try and imagine how you’d feel if your ex was saying “we need to...

    Baby #2 Posts

    @biblequestions My friend calls him “the most exotic butters” from FNAF because he’s a savannah cat but he’s named after butters from South Park.

    Advice needed

    @claire19 Their father is choosing to allow your son to be bullied, abused, humiliated, and assaulted. HE. IS. CHOOSING. THIS. He is CHOOSING to allow your son to be unsafe. He’s been telling you all that he doesn’t care for YEARS! Your son may never overcome this abuse and trauma.

    How do u do it?

    @jeremygray36 As a woman, I can tell you that MOST OF THE TIME, if we initiate the separation, it’s beyond saving. We’ve already mourned the relationship and have given all the chances we are willing to give. I doubt you can do anything but try to move on. Again, I can’t speak for everyone, but...

    Decided to homeschool for now

    @alidvx She’s so young. You really don’t have to plan anything or do anything formal. A bit of writing practice, maybe some reading. Everything else can be real world. Cooking and baking are awesome for math. Subtitles on favorite shows help tons with reading. Science is as easy as an app on...

    Baby #2 Posts

    @debbs3692 I think a lot of people feel obligated to have a second. You don’t. I don’t. Lots of us in here don’t. We did, however, welcome “baby” number 6 home a couple weeks ago. His name is Butters and he’s a 4 month old savannah kitten lol.

    At what point do you stop giving coparent info?

    @themrsbeth I don’t tell my kid’s dad anything. And they rarely talk. He has her number just rarely calls or texts her. It’s between them. I don’t get in the middle. If she wants to update him on school (she’s homeschooled for now) she can. If he wants to know something, he can ask me. He doesn’t.

    My Ex (F) is trimming my 10F’s body hair, should I say something to her?

    @essentiallyme Is she asking her mother for help?

    6 y.o. advised to get 8 crowns! What the what!?

    @on_a_mission_ Get a second opinion but your child would not be the first, and won’t be the last, to need extensive work done on primary teeth. Some of those teeth will be in their mouth for 6+ more years.
