Mommy Shaming

[Dildo Argentino]

As for my angry daughter, some people simply have more fiery personalities than others. She is a passionate person who is quick to anger and passionate about social justice. She is certainly, compared to the sanguine personalities of my other children, an angry person, but she isn't angry all the time or without reason. She is angry in bursts, when she perceives that someone is suffering a social wrong. She was like this even in pre-school, when she would defend smaller kids from bullies, and rage about how unfair it is that some kids were mean to or didn't want to be friends with the disabled child in her class. I am incredibly proud of her passion for justice and certainly don't appreciate the implication that she's been abused.

I can relate to that, I'd call it a strong sense of justice combined with the willingness to do something about it, Courage. I don't think I implied she had, I was talking about something different. I didn't understand or misunderstood what you meant by your oldest being angry a lot. I do understand now, thank you for the clarification.

I am certainly not happy about being stressed and poor and struggling. That wasn't my favorite turn of events in my life, that's for sure. But I also am, in fact, completely certain that being in school right now IS the correct choice for me, and for my kids, and I am proud of myself for accomplishing what I have so far in life, even if it might not equal the kind of sheltered, comfortable complacency others consider "success". I'm proud of myself and of my kids, and of the job I've done raising my kids despite hardships and disadvantages.

Well I recently had the pleasure to try thrift living with 6 kids in the UK. The money we lived on was just enough for rent, bills, a monotonous but okay diet, the petrol we needed and precious little else. I applaud your efforts and I'm sorry if I made the impression I denigrated them in any way.

So, Mr. Comfortable, you can just go fuck right off.

Look, I like you, I think you are right, being in school is the right choice. But do you actually think being constantly stressed out is a requirement?

He can't.  He's driven to this, IMO.

Holist is a self-made man. This is clearly 100% the result of doing everything right, so that puts him in a position to tell us what. Meanwhile, we're all stuck in ruts, making the same silly mistakes over and over again. He can tell that, from where he sits.

Well you know, I've been sitting here where I sit for two years now, on and off.

Given his "You all suck but I love you" bullshit, his kids are gonna be damaged goods for life.

Just saying.

I had some idea already of the maximum of stoopage. You went lower.

And I can slide under THAT.

You and i going back to school for useful degrees. Man i totally see how much of a sad patheticrut that is. I mustve been daft not to see it.

Clearly, making terrible choices in life here.

Not like moving to the UK and failing pathetically, or anything.

Isn't it just so pathetically, tediously characteristic of PD: the counterexamples chirp up. The half a dozen at least people I've heard moan about their jobs stay quiet. Amuses.

You People are not being rational.

He's obviously learned everything there is to know about being HAPPY. 

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY.

(I know it's pointless but here goes anyways:)

IT ISN'T REALLY ABOUT BEING HAPPY IT IS JUST NOT BEING STRESSED OUT SO MUCH AND FINDING ENJOYMENT IN LIFE.

And yet here you are.  How puzzling.

LMNO, I think lazy slob best describes you, always ready for the cheap shot, as long as it doesn't occupy much more than a line and a half.

So's your mom.

My muther is a very active lady who still exerts tremendous effort at 70. She is somewhat ready for the cheap shot, but will belabour it at the drop of a hat.

[Dildo Argentino]

On one hand, I feel like I ought to say something about criticizing someone on how many children they have is a form of mommy shaming / slut shaming in itself.

On the other hand, I don't like Holist very much.

That must be terrible for you.

Enrico is not certain "effort" is word he would use to describe, but will admit: she have remarkable elasticity!
