Unprofessional rant incoming...some people are just bad parents. Like lazy, uncaring, neglectful parents. And then they wonder why their kids keep getting into trouble while at childcare like...it's because you don't discipline them at home. Am I the a-hole here or are some parents just horrible?

You are 100% correct. I've got some neighbors who are "free range" parents...no supervision of their kids, just put'em out the door and make the neighborhood deal with them. I've had my Ring alert me numerous times to these kids using my yard as a bathroom. Parents are idiots.

Yes, some are just really bad at parenting. Expect teachers/others to do the work

For sure. I know exactly what you mean. I've come across many myself. Kids that grow up with no discipline are the ones that go on to keep displaying that same behavior as adults... What a nightmare

I completely agree with you. The parents will be more mad at administration for having to call off of work for a reinstatement meeting than at their kid for doing whatever thing they did to get suspended.

Lawyer Couples:
I’m currently an associate (no kids) in a very busy corp group (think 50-60 billable weekly). My wife works significantly less (currently part time, 10-15, but hopefully will be full time soon). I find myself getting upset when asked to help with basic household things (trash, cooking etc.) when she’s been lounging around watching Netflix all day. Am I being reasonable or am I a misogynist? How do you deal with one person having significantly more free time than the other?

Been with my GF since college and we recently hit the 4 year mark. 1-2 years into our relationship I found out she had instances of micro-cheating (flirting with guys, talking to ex’s etc - but nothing physical) and we addressed it. To her credit and my knowledge, she’s been apologetic and great at respecting boundaries since, but I still feel the pain from her actions years ago (and have talked to her about it). Feeling lost about whether to just leave or to try and work things out

How do you know if you have good hygiene? my ex told me I don’t

This is my routine:
- I have curly hair, can only wash it once a week/put dry shampoo if needed
- I brush my teeth 2 times a day
- Wear deodorant / perfume every day (my way, and good girl) and shave off any hair (I did laser but still), as much as possible. Some days, I cannot keep up with shaving (especially if it won’t show)
- I wear pantyliners and change it once a day/ change panties once a day
- I shower my body every day

I recently floundered professionally and realized that the reason was I expected my relationship with my job to fulfill all my human needs and when it didn't I had no idea what to do. So just a reminder to prioritize the relationships in your life that give you meaning, your job is one of them but it's a poor life if that's the only one. Have great relationships with your friends your family and yourself

Comforting others:
When someone tells me bad news regarding their health, I say everything I am supposed to say (I’m sorry to hear that, I’m here for you, etc) EXCEPT “everything is going to be ok”. Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
