Ive got kids in daycare and have often worried about how the educators can focus on the kids while doing so many parent updates! Even though I love them, I would rather the educators had less paperwork.
You're wasting so much money on interest! You could do so much more with it if you just paid the debt down. And definitely tell your BF, he will probably help and you will feel so much better once it's gone (I say this as someone in your same situation a out 1p years ago)
@smart cookie not everyone feels that way though. My granny is 96 and told me should would rather take the risk of catching covid to see her family rather than spend her last years alone and isolated. Also the people in nursing homes put into isolation in their own rooms, not allowed to see another soul "for their safety". Covid is not deadly to the overwhelming vast majority of people who get it.
People from WA have a real "ends justify the means" perspective when it comes to covid where they don't seem to care as much about separating families as people in other places.
@mummyof2 you are wrong. Plenty of people are thinking about this actually. Our carers at daycare said they are happy to still have a job.
I got AZ too and also felt smug and relieved! A winning combo.
@poodletime this article literally quotes him saying that it won't impact case numbers...
Argh I wish people would stop quoting Norman Swan. He is advocating for things he openly admits won't impact on covid cases just "for the vibe".
I'm extremely pro-vax (I've had the AZ) but I respect people's right to choose what they want to do with their own body and I'm certainly not going to convince someone to get a vaccine when our medical experts say the risk is too high for under 60s.
@ssejica the world does go around though. I felt the same for years, now I have young kids and need to leave early to pick them up. You might find yourself there one day too
I found going from 1-2 harder but that is because my second child has been a much harder baby than my first
Men are the worst
@cat thanks, i think you're right. it took many years for me to realise there is nothing wrong with me. I was just a kid and it was her issue, not mine.
I too had a mother who seemingly hated me while lavishing love and affection on my brothers. What causes this phenomenon? I've never received an answer as to WHY and it haunts me
Finding a pair of jeans you like is so hard. If you find some jeans that make you feel confident and cool, wear them with pride!
The question "what did you do", whilst painful, is an entirely fair one, and must be confronted by the author if they ever want to have any chance at reconciliation. The author instead avoids this self reflection to minimise their own shame and suffering.
