Thoughts on the Upcoming Presidential Election
I know this might be a controversial question, but I am curious what your thoughts are. I'm excited that Kamala Harris might be the next president, but I was burned pretty badly when Trump won. I realized I lived in this CA bubble and it has made me a bit jaded. Are you all doing anything to support the upcoming election besides voting? -Vanessa M.
Parenting Question
Parenting questions here :) What would you do if a an older kid (6+ yo) at the playground is constantly cutting in line of many younger kids that are patiently waiting their turn? The parent of the older child is on the bench on their phone and not paying attention to their child’s behaviour. Many of the parents at the playground are looking at each other, as no one is quite sure what is best to do. Do you teach your child to stand up for themselves, talk to the parent of the older child, tell the older child to wait their turn, go elsewhere..?
Being open to recieving and asking for things
Hey besties! I struggle with recieving and especially asking for things as it makes me feel "selfish". I know logically that it doesnt, but its become such a habit to say "no, im okay" whenever im offered something that its almost automatic. Asking for help (in person)? Forget about it. I mostly have this issue with extended family, friends, strangers. Have you ladies ever experienced this? What suggestions do you have for getting over this. (Note: i am an Obliger and im which may be a factor here and im working to release myself from this mindset as well)
