Am I a byach? Grandmother and father put the 4 year olds in seats B and C next to me in A, and refuse to split up so that an adult is sitting with each. Asked and answered: "They're good boys." IHML.

You should play a really loud game with them and buy them coke and sugar from the beverage cart. It will be a tough, but entertaining 1.5 hours for you, but a miserable night for the parents. Should teach-it-forward.

Recently ended a 3+ yr relationship (were both mid 20s and living together for just under 2 years) bc of him buying an engagement ring yet not proposing and waffling about our future. After 2 weeks I brought up that there’s a lot of good in us that maybe worth trying to work on (counseling etc). He wants space first and asked me to not wait for him as he sorts out his emotions and “tries to be happy again” (COVID depression and 100hr work weeks). Then he’ll decide if he wants to try again

Offtopic: Which is the best health insurance (company) to buy for parents? Please suggest as per prior firsthand experience in claims, settlement, premium etc.

With such increase I do not think it will be viable for long term. So planning to switch/port.

Anyone have three kids and working in big law? I just found out I’m pregnant with no. 3 and it’s been a lot trying to juggle morning sickness, but based on my experience, I know this is only the tip of the iceberg of what’s to come. My husband and I are elated, but the anxiety of being a mom of 3 kids and working in big law is preventing me from truly enjoying this news. It would be good to know what it’s really like having 3 kids so that I can evaluate how long I really have left in big law.
