YouTube kids

Anyone else just fed up with YouTube kids. I have blocked so many channels that are just filled with brain rot and ai generating shit but it feels like these accounts are like a Hydra! You block one and three more just pop up. It feels never ending!! I have set the setting to the youngest option and these stupid videos still show up. I have banned YouTube kids all together now but there is some good educational stuff on there that my son enjoys. This is just a little rant more than anything 😅 just needed to moan a little bit😂

Just so mentally exhausted :(

I recently tied the knot with my boyfriend of over 2 years, and at first I was really excited. But that excitement has worn off and it’s like I don’t even wanna be around him anymore.

Yesterday he called me his girlfriend, which stung because shouldn’t you acknowledge me as your wife? Then he spends almost all of his time on his computer or twitter or doing whatever. He’s usually good with our son and takes a lot of the responsibilities but I feel left out a lot.

I’m gonna be a sahm of 2 under 2 soon, and I just genuinely feel so much stress rn. I spend most of my time out in the living room because I’d rather just be by myself than spend another quiet moment in our bedroom.

He either wants to play the game or watch a movie, which he doesn’t even watch. I just don’t know if I can do this anymore with him

Hi. Help please.

Ftm. My daughter is 7m old and I’m a WFH mum. Can someone tell me how to keep her busy because I’ve got her a play pen, and in the pen I’ve kept her stuffy’s and some toys but she quickly gets bored and starts to cry.
She’s crawling and pulling herself to stand, just don’t know how to keep her engaged. Any toy reccs or anything else. Thanks

Would this bother you or am I being too sensitive?

My husband and I are both 27. We’ve been together for 10 years, have a 3 year old son, and I’m currently 30 weeks pregnant.

For years, I’ve told him that I really appreciate little check ins when we’re apart. I don’t mean constant messaging all day, and honestly it doesn’t bother me too much if he’s just out for a few hours. It’s more when he’s away for longer periods, like all day or overnight, that I find it difficult.

Whenever he goes out/away with friends/work, I usually don’t hear from him at all from the moment he leaves until he’s back home. This has caused a lot of arguments over the years because I’ve explained so many times that a simple message saying, “how are things?” or “how’s our son?” would mean a lot to me and make me feel thought about.

He has always said he’d work on it, but nothing has really changed. More recently, he’s told me that it’s just something I need to accept because he gets caught up in the moment and struggles with what he calls object permanence. From what I understand, he means that when he’s focused on what he’s doing, people who aren’t physically there can slip from his mind.

He’s away overnight with friends tonight and I haven’t heard a peep from him since he left this morning.

What makes me question myself is that whenever I’m with friends and they get messages from their partners throughout the day, I’m genuinely shocked and, if I’m honest, a little envious. Again, not because I want constant communication, but because it seems so natural for them to check in and let each other know they’re thinking of one another.

I want him to enjoy himself and have a good time with his friends, but I also want to feel like me and our family cross his mind while he’s away.

Am I overreacting for feeling upset about this?

Relate?

I love being a stay at home momma. And I’m so grateful but sometimes I feel like I need a break. Not even a long one. Maybe 30 minutes. But I feel so guilty asking for one. When I know my boyfriend works all day. And he wants to decompress from work and relax.

Am I just being hormonal?

Sorry it’s a long one.

So my hubby made plans with Robert (not his real name) almost 2 weeks ago for tonight 4th of July. well as we were 10 mins in to the drive, Robert texts him saying he just got to the area and there’s no parking anywhere so we can’t come. And hubby called his friend Frank (not real name) he’s at a family event but said we can come but I don’t want to go anywhere anymore. The only person I will know is Frank and I won’t have anyone to “hangout” with while hubby hangs out with his friend. I feel like this day is ruined because of Robert and the poor communication and planning. And I’m currently trying to hold back my tears because I was excited to meet Robert’s wife and children. And even got the kids something to play with that I thought would be a good gesture.
Am I overreacting or being hormonal?

Also I’m 17w+5ds.

I’m feeling really fed up with my fiance. I’m just over his constant attitude and he’s always annoyed at me for something. like even if you are mad at me does that mean you stop caring about me?? am I bugging?

I smacked my head against the wall super hard while standing up and screamed (I’m not a screamer typically lol). I was standing there with my hand on my head for a minute and he was standing in the same room feeding our son. He looked up, then continued with what he was doing. A few later he walked over all annoyed and was like “what’s the problem what are you being so loud for” and I told him and he didn’t say one word. Just walked away.
