Tween/Teen
- Tween/Teen Happy birthday to Her!
- she would have been about to be elected into her 2nd term :(
- she didn't deserve the first one
- yeah, we really dodged a bullet there. emails!
- she didn't deserve the first one
- she would have been about to be elected into her 2nd term :(
- Tween/Teen Dh and I have different libidos, he would have sex daily, I'm good with once a week or so......(more)
- I’m really happy that dh and I have equally matched libidos, we both want sex all the time
- That’s great! It’s a shame you’re such an insufferable idiot though.
- It’s a physical release that he enjoys daily. If you won’t donot, why shouldn’t he?
- but EVERY time we don't have sex? Isn't that excessive?
- how old is he? don't punish or chastise him for his sex drive. you either need to step it up, or let him do his thing. You're lucky he doesn't go find a young woman to take care...(more)
- both 43
- So you won’t give him sex and he can’t get himself off either? Doesn’t sound fair.
- You sound fun.
- where does he go? And how do you know what he is doing?
- ewwww
- So what? If he isnt bothering you for more then you need to get over it
- This post has been deleted.
- I'm just not in the mood or too tired
- You do realize for a man with a healthy sex drive still, once a week is NOT going to cut it
- Don’t you get off on your own?
- occasionally, not EVERY night like him
- Masturbation is a beautiful thing and should be celebrated! Don’t take it personally it’s the best way to bridge your differences in libido. I would encourage it if I were you,...(more)
- You sound insufferable

- Tween/Teen When nursing homes shut down due to covid, did they bar families from getting their loved ones?...(more)
- You would not have been allowed in in most states
- So you had to watch helplessly from outside as the grim reaper made his rounds?
- Yup
- That is INSANE.... HOW DID PEOPLE NOT GO MAD WITH GRIEF AND WORRY
- first off by not being so dramatic?
- If my mom was in there, I'd go insane and bust her out somehow
- where is your mom?
- Not in a nursing home.
- so how on earth do you know this? come on.
- Multiple ppl posting
- so how on earth do you know this? come on.
- Not in a nursing home.
- you don't know what you're talking about. my mom is in a care home right now that was locked down. you can't just go in and get them
- what level of care? and you are wrong. you can move any time from a residential or assisted living.
- of course you can. don't be daft.
- Sounds like she is saying she couldn't
- she is leaving out details.
- Sounds like she is saying she couldn't
- I'm so sorry that is what I was wondering. So you were barred from bringing her home.
- no she was not. I am guessing her mom was in a skilled facility and there was covid, so another facility said "we cannot take her until the hold is lifted." OP had a choice to...(more)
- ^OR.
- Oh whew. My great fear was old people were not allowed to leave and were stuck inside waiting to die...(more)
- ridiculous. though many states urged people to leave them in facilities where presumably they were more pretected than they would be in the community.
- no she was not. I am guessing her mom was in a skilled facility and there was covid, so another facility said "we cannot take her until the hold is lifted." OP had a choice to...(more)
- You can choose to stop care in the facility. You can’t “take them out for a week” and expect to send them back
- I'd stop care and bring them home.
- Yes, but the point is most people can’t. If you and Dh work and your elderly parent needs assistance eating, using the bathroom, regular medical checks, intravenous medicine......(more)
- Not to mention the fact that the entire family would have to be on lockdown until there's a vaccine due to Covid risk to the elderly patient. Ironically, nursing homes are safer...(more)
- Yes, but the point is most people can’t. If you and Dh work and your elderly parent needs assistance eating, using the bathroom, regular medical checks, intravenous medicine......(more)
- I'd stop care and bring them home.
- where is your mom?
- If my mom was in there, I'd go insane and bust her out somehow
- They did
- ^^remember those news stories of people saying goodbye to their loved ones via FaceTime?....
- Yes I thought they just couldn't come in to visit or say goodbye. Not that they couldn't bring them home.
- Well if you wanted to end your contract woth the nursing home and provide care at home I’m sure they would let them out. But most people can’t do that
- Ah the answer I needed...(more)
- you all are confused. there is a hold on people visiting or was in congregate care. if tehre are current cases in the facility the state puts another hold on residents. if no hold...(more)
- Correct. But if you need medical care, the nursing home will no longer provide it. My MIl went through this with her sister. They removed her from the home, but had to hire a FT...(more)
- yes. that is why people go to assisted living, memory care or foster homes. its gets too expensive to pay for 24hr hour superivsion
- But even that I'd bring her home
- Exactly. So to answer that persons question in theory yes you could just go in and remove your loved one from the home. But in reality- yes, they were locked in with no visitors...(more)
- yes, because we as a country want to protect the vulnerable.
- I totally understand the no visitors rule but didn't understand the elderly as prisoners approach
- cause its not a thing.
- people are confusing issues. Nursing home residents aren't leaving, they aren't well enough. Assisted livign people can come and go, unless there is a hold on their building.

- That is INSANE.... HOW DID PEOPLE NOT GO MAD WITH GRIEF AND WORRY
- Yup
- Not to visit but they couldn't even take them out? It isn't jail... Really???
- Taking them out means coming in to get them.
- so protect the vulnerable, or don't. seems no one can agree?
- They couldn't push them out??? Do loved ones can take them home? No one has to go inside...
- English, please.
- Push them out in wheelchairs, no one has to come in to collect their loved ones
- Duh they aren't walking out, reading comp mom
- How are they going to get the necessary medical care? They are in a nursing home for a reason m
- they get it. the hold allows for medical workers to come in as needed.
- np. at some point, you have no medical ability to care for them when they are in a care home. what would you do, learn how to do the rounds ??
- What if they didn't need care and were just frail
- to get into a nursing home (long term care home) you need to be more than frail. if you're just frail, you are usually in some other arrangement.
- I thought that was hospice and nursing home meant you were just too old to live on your own....(more)
- A lot of nursing home patients can be cared for at home.
- assuming there is an adult all day home wiht the time and energy.
- That's true. I'd do it though compared to putting my mom in a coronavirus deathtrap.

- couldn't they just wheel them out? That is nonsense.
- How is that legal to keep a healthy resident captive like that with danger all around??? Let them go home.
- Right that's what is so confusing. Were people crying outside while fully being able to bring them home and just unwilling
- So you had to watch helplessly from outside as the grim reaper made his rounds?
- They left them there to die.
- god you are so rude. those poor workers have been through hell, residents too. you know nothing
- they are because they need a high level of care that families are unable to safely provide
- I know one woman who put up such a tantrum that they allowed her to move in with her mother at the home and neither one of them was allowed to leave until mid July
- That would be me
- You did that ?
- I'm sorry, I meant I would do the same.
- Really? Most people have jobs, spouses, kids, pets, communities.
- Screw that all, your mom is in there. Arrangements can be made. It's life or death so you act.
- We're talking about moving into a nursing home to be with a parent. My mother would be furious if I even thought about putting my life on hold to do that.
- It would be an act of love and mine would understand my need to protect her.
- By moving into a nursing home and quite possibly exposing your relatively young self to sickness and death? Foolish.
- It would be an act of love and mine would understand my need to protect her.
- I think you are best having your mom live you in order to avoid this scenario.
- Damn straight. Learned a lesson from this pandemic. No one cares about the elderly so I'll take care of mine.
- what a sad outlook on humanity, but ok.
- hmmm. isn't all covid mitigation about the elderly?
- Talk is cheap. My mother lived with us for 18 months while recovering from a stroke and again for about a month when she entered a steep decline. It became impossible to provide...(more)

- I think people were thinking their loved ones were safe there. And by the time it was clear they weren't, it was too late to get anyone out
- omg.

- ^see below. like a horror film! sure sure.
- Well that's my guess. I don't know of anyone racing to take a parent/grandparent out.
- I agree. my friends have parents in assisted livign during this time and they have been thankful this was the case

- Hmmm, will SUGGEST MIL go to nursing home.
- You would not have been allowed in in most states
- Tween/Teen This post has been disliked 3 times. MIL is old and complains she is alone. Why is it our responsibility j...(more)
- This post has been disliked 4 times. Because a lot of boomers feel entitled and they see kids as their possessions
- They're so negative and selfish
- The old generation sucks
- Boomers? How old is the OP's MIL?
- They're so negative and selfish
- Ignore her.
- Do NOT ignore her. Shame on you
- You can have her.
- Your children are listening and watching. They will find excuses to abandon you. Support fsmily
- I am really good to my own parents who are amazing people. MIL is a selfish and petty person.
- Because she is MIL. Not your family.
- No way. I don't teach my children to be in abusive relationships. Family or not.
- Abusive, I agree. But most here just hate their MIL which is okay but still a family responsibility
- I am really good to my own parents who are amazing people. MIL is a selfish and petty person.
- Your children are listening and watching. They will find excuses to abandon you. Support fsmily
- You can have her.
- Do NOT ignore her. Shame on you
- She is your responsibility whether you like it or not. Be a good example for your children as to caring for older people in the family
- She is not my responsibility. She was an abusive mother and does not deserve to be in our lives.
- Your children are watching and listening. If you can discard their grandmother, they have learned it is okay to discard you
- You have just sons right
- I have one. But have lived with dealing family and the support starts at home
- May your MIL move in with you soon after a bad fall
- Then you deal. I dealt with a declining DH and can't imagine not helping a family member
- Maybe you only have good family. May you never know the hell of toxic family.
- Maybe but not the point. Help family. The effluvia doesn't matter. You are being selfish
- Maybe you only have good family. May you never know the hell of toxic family.

- She is not my responsibility. She was an abusive mother and does not deserve to be in our lives.
- Eh they just wallow and complain. I just let them fade into the background or avoid
- And your children will do the same for you because that is what they learned from you
- If I'm anything like my MIL, my kids can totally ghost me with my blessing lol
- My children are their own people, free to fly and enjoy life. If they want to come, great. They don't owe me.
- And I will never guilt them and steal their joy for my own selfish pleasure. No way. Ugh.
- You say that now but you are young. We ALL say that until we need help
- Nah, I'll just stop eating when it comes to that point of being a burden
- You say that now but your mindset will change vastly as an older woman. Easy to be strong when you are young and strong
- Whoa. So when you get old, you turn into a selfish miserable goblin to haunt your kids?
- As we age, our mindset changes. Please be a good example to your children
- Nah, I'll just stop eating when it comes to that point of being a burden
- And your children will do the same for you because that is what they learned from you
- yeah they kinda are
- MIL sucks. She'll figure it out, just block her.
- Even DH can't stand her.
- MIL sucks. She'll figure it out, just block her.

- Exactly. Exactly!!!!
- MIL can plan for her future, develop hobbies, make friends but noooooo she has to eagerly look to us
- She made her bed. Time to lie in it. She could have focused on being a better human.
- With her bright and beady eyes
- My MIL got so negative in her years that she was toxic to be around. No wonder everyone left her.
- YounRe seeing the future. Be kind to your DIlL's as they are going to post the same ant you
- Nice try. But no. I already have my retirement and tons of friends and hobbies. I'm not a human burden of misery
- Good for you. Not every woman is so independent
- Being alone can be wonderful. Read, watch Netflix, garden... Walks..so many fun and interesting things to do
- I am doing that and am happy as an older single woman.
- Salud!

- A friend told me the other day that all 14yo boys do, which was news to me.

- Tween/Teen My dd doesn't have to wear her brace for scoliosis anymore. Her spine is just about straight and it appears she'll stay that way. I'm so happy for her.
- Yay! THAT'S AMAZING
- Thank you! :)
- Did she have to wear it all the time? Or just at night?
- For the first 6 months she wore it 22 hours a day. The last 3 years, only at night.
- Thank you. My dd has scoliosis and may need to do this. She goes back for another check in 2 months
- Where are you located?
- Nyc
- We used a Rigo Cheneau brace. If you need a first or second opinion, see Dr. Benjamin Roye. Look into the Rigo Cheneau brace, if it comes to needing a brace.

- Thank you. My dd has scoliosis and may need to do this. She goes back for another check in 2 months

- Scoliosis mom here with rods and a uneven back (discovered too late for the brace) and I am so so happy to hear this! I know it skips a generation and my own kids have been...(more)
- Oh no. So sorry. I happened to find a wonderful place that made braces that correct the curve rather than hold the curve. We got lucky!
- my curve was so severe when they discovered it that I had surgery a month later... this makes me so happy that they are progressing into TREATING it and correcting it!
- ^^mine was so bad that it would have eventually crushed my heart. I thank god for that surgery but am so glad they are making progress in treatment!
- It's a very sneaky thing. I'm glad you're okay. How scary for you and your family.
- There was a girl in the hospital at the time I had my surgery who had it so bad she had to have surgery from the back then 2 weeks later from the front. I was lucky they caught...(more)
- Oy! Poor thing!
- they actually brought me to visit her before my surgery... kind of weird but she was so positive and so happy and it really helped me.

- Tween/Teen I find it confusing that hybrid schooling in my town requires social distancing and masks but most kids I know are playing soccer, hockey, etc w no restrictions. Is this happe...(more)
- yes
- We are back full time (masks) and sports are also happening (mostly masked but they remove for hockey on the ice, we are in a cohort)
- No, sports have restrictions same as school (masks unless actually playing, distancing everywhere except in the actual game etc)
- Yes.
- Yes same here. Makes no sense
- Yes. We are in person school with masks, etc, but my kids slobber all over each other football practice. It’s fine. They are kids. Why should they suffer?
- The kids playing sports have a higher chance of catching it
- Oh well. Exercise and mental health matter too. We all have to weigh our choices.

- Tween/Teen Is this fair, or discrimination?...(more)
- I would say fair. Those who go to practice get playing time. The parents are really the ones at fault for signing their kid up for something they aren’t available to give 100%
- Sounds fair to me if they’re not the only one playing that amount
- More than fair.

- He’s where al of your energy is going. When he’s not there, there’s a void.
- it's so difficult for me. I am here for the others but it's so upsetting and I have a lot of energy going towards his "issues"
- Do you mean you are sad that he isn’t there but you think about him constantly?
- When did he start boarding school!? I have 3 and one def takes more effort and energy on my part. He’s younger but I miss him even if he’s only gone a few hours

- Seriously dumb thing to say. Even a professional writer has editors. A second set of eyes that is NOT mom and dad is always useful.

- yes
- Someone you used as a writing coach?
- you write a paper about something you are passionate about - period. It's not really rocket science.
