Hi there! I am currently trying to start my own babysitting business and I’m looking for some input :) Some information about me: I am 18 y/o (F), recent high school graduate who is taking a gap year. In an effort to make some extra money, I am looking to start my own side hustle alongside my...

I divorced my ex almost 10 years ago b/c he was in another relationship. After divorce they got married and did everything they could to convince my kids (then 9 & 7) I was horrible and tried to convince the kids to live with them full time. It was almost like this woman's quest was to destroy...

Hey everyone, I’m fortunate enough that, when I take my daughter shopping, I will usually buy her a small toy (she doesn’t go with me often). Depends on the situation, but that’s the deal for the most part. We keep it around $5 and haven’t had issues. The last couple of times we’ve gone out...

I’m a 20 year old female. Thing I’m not allowed to do: -if I wanna see my friends, I have to show my mom the texts, then she wants me to take a picture of my friends to prove I’m with them. -Drive to my boyfriends house (I bought my own car) -own any sex toys. She found mine. Told my entire...

Hi! I’m a new(ish) mom. My son is almost 1. We are in the process of selling our home in order to build a new one. For the time being we are staying with my in-laws. My BIL is also staying here while he has his daughter (5 y/o) as his home is being renovated currently and they are unable to stay...

Okay I’m not sure that this is the right place to ask.. or maybe I’m just venting? We are a 1 income household with no mortgage, just bills. We have 4 kids (12, 7, 4 & 3). I am very much a thrifting/yard sale kinda person. So for back to school the only things that we buy new are shoes or...

She used to eat chicken nuggets and French fries. Now she only eats gogo yogurt pouches and popsicles. (I started hiding them and saying they’re all gone) Occasionally animal crackers and rice cakes. When I’m lucky I can get her to eat peanut butter and jelly. Nothing nutritious beyond the...

On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate the skills of these Rochester cops at dealing with children? The video below was taken from the body camera of Hannah Schneeberger:

Hope this is appropriate as a standalone post, wasn't sure if I should post in the daily. I've received my fertility blood test results from my GP. The receptionist said all the results look fine except the progesterone (I explained this might be because the bloods were taken on CD4 and I'd...

My girlfriend has two twelve year old daughters (twins). The first one (we will call Kylie) is sweet as pie, takes her responsibilities seriously and her punishments even more seriously. The other one (we will call Kaia), however, is the complete opposite. She is extremely manipulative, lies all...

Hi everyone, I will try to keep this as brief as possible. I’m desperate to hear any thoughts or advice, no matter how anecdotal. Long story short, our 29 month old son isn’t walking unassisted yet. He was a preemie, but was doing great until he didn’t crawl until 18M. At that point, his...

Everyday I basically feel aimless and guilty about everything I do all day and I think its because I didn't have a stay at home parent growing up so I don't know what the daily norms are. I'm always anxious about what I SHOULD be doing no matter what I'm doing. It would help alot if I could get...

Well, I made a post the other day asking if it was appropriate for me (17f) to be friends with my coworker (27m) and he’s really professional and good and stuff around me and I think I embarrassed myself today. I decided to ask if we could see a movie together and he stopped and asked if my...

I have lean PCOS that makes my cycle wonky - it’s like doing a jigsaw puzzle with the pieces changing size and shape regularly. Ovulated on CD 60 and accidentally had sex on the right day for my first baby, and I ovulated CD 14 after my first period when my baby was 4 months old (lost that...

Things are getting serious with the two of us, and I'll be meeting the girls soon. I intend to be a positive, supportive figure in their lives (he is divorced, so their mum is also in the picture and they will share custody. They get on well) and get fully involved. I'm excited about the idea...

I’ve been seeing a trend on my feed of parents showing off their amount of kids. Whether that’s 6 kids, 8 kids, and just now I’ve seen two parents who had 13 kids in total. I’m just wondering what jobs or careers do you have to even take care of that many? How are you surviving out here??

1 my paycheck is only 300 dollars. 2 after bills and groceries I only get left 10 dollars 3. Stop telling me to walk along the highway which is a literal death trap and a 200 dollar fine 4 bus passes cost a hundred dollars a year 5 to ride the bus costs 50 dollars 6 just because I react to...

Would you ever forgive your SIL? I was walking with her and holding her 3 y.o. In the dark stupidly bc niece wouldn’t put on shoes and fell over a 2” dip in the sidewalk.. I luckily broke the fall and skinned my knees, face, and hands up raw. Niece had no pain she said but was “scared” I feel...
