Spoiler Alert: Toy Story 5

I just wanted to post this somewhere without spoiling it for anybody who hasn't seen it yet.

There's a part in the movie where Jessie gets sent back to her first kids home. I got a bit ahead of myself and assume the story was going somewhere it wasn't, so I ended up a little disappointed 😅

When I saw the scene with her and the giant horse, I thought ohhh it's gonna bring her kid as a grown woman into it and show how all that cowgirl play shaped who she became as an adult. I got emotional thinking about it 😂 because I was like, this is what kids with limitless screens are missing. They grow up to be adults addicted to screens instead of something really aspirational and exciting, or creative or thrilling , ya know the things that make life worth living and give us a healthy sense of self and belonging.

Anyway, it turned out it wasn't and in the end the devices are portrayed as not so bad since they want to help their kids too 🙄 I know it's a kids movie and all but I'm curious what others thoughts were on that "conclusion"? I sort of respect it, I mean in reality we have to accept this is the world we live in now and they have their place in it, I just feel like they could have done a better job showing the benefits of kids who grow up playing with toys vs being so sedentary and lacking social skills.

Did you feel disappointed in the message or lack of one in the conclusion of the movie?

Am I in the wrong?

We only let my parents watch our 1 year old. Today, while my husband was at work, I went to my mom's house and took a shower while my parents took my baby to the grocery shop. For the last few weeks, I've been struggling with my mental health, and my hygiene hasn't been great because of that. My husband kicked off and said that I'm disrespecting our relationship and boundaries and that he'll be staying in a hotel until I leave the apartment.

We've had issues like this before, but im tired of him not understanding that I just need a minute sometimes

Am I being inconsiderate?

Feeling sad

Hi everyone, just wondered if I’m being sensitive here.

I absolutely love my 10 week old and every minute spent with him, I absolutely love motherhood and even the crying and screaming doesn’t stress me. For that reason I do 24/7 baby care and the times my partner has him - I want him back!

My partner has started getting angry at me when he gets home from work if I’ve not done his dinner, or done the recycling or other household chores. Tonight for example, I’d messaged him saying I’ve got a freezer meal out for him - when he got back he said he wasn’t hungry. Fine. Then proceeds to get angry because his dinner wasn’t on the table…confused. Apparently all I’ve done today was hug the baby and go to a cafe (true…but I also walked the dog, emptied the dishwasher, did washing, sterilised 10 bottles and fed and changed our baby 20 times!). He thinks I’m just lazing around the house. He says I should just let the baby cry while I do the chores. No.

He’s got angry at me several times now and I’m struggling to get dinner ready and do everything else with the baby. He said “our mums did it why can’t you”. Both our mums were stay at home parents so I guess he’s right.

How do you do it?! I just can’t seem to get everything done, I’m failing massively. I go back to work in June next year so have some time to work it out. I feel under such pressure to be a perfect housewife for my maternity leave, but I do think he’s being a bit unfair saying I do nothing. He wants me to do everything around the house so any tips welcome on how the hell I do that with a 10 week old and a massive dog.

One day

One day my husband came to me and said he doesn't like that I'm constantly asking for help with the kids on days he was originally supposed to work but ended up staying home.
He would always ask what would I do if he wasnt home and eventually asked me to treat it like a normal day as if he weren't here.
I went through a series of emotions naturally but I obliged.
Today just so happen to be one of those days. Once I'm up i like to jump into my morning routine before the boys wake up but he begged me to get back in bed with him.
Not the way he wanted apparently.
Honestly I think he may have wanted to get spicy and because we didn't I think thats where's the animosity was coming from.
I think I'm more so annoyed that I do what he asks and hes still upset.
I try to treat it like a normal day but now he wants me to stay in bed and "cuddle"
I stay in bed anyway and he starts an argument.
I'm tired 😫

Rant

Letting my grandmother move in with us was the worst decision ever. My husband works nights and is supposed to take our daughter when he wakes up in the morning so I can have a break for a couple hours but now every time he wakes up she finds something she needs him to do so I'm left taking care of a screaming child 24/7 all alone cause by the time he finishes what she needs it's time for him to go to work. I never get a break and it's making it impossible for me to enjoy being a mom cause I'm basically being a single parent while still being married. I'm exhausted and tired of being all alone

Do I have a right to be angry or am i over reacting?

Evening park trip with the kids and partner (4 kids 10 and under). The 3 year old is non verbal and a fear of dogs. My partner is about 10ft away in the van dorectly facing where we are and watching. A dog off a lead runs full speed towards us she is hysterical before the dog gets close. My son starts screaming i grab them all behind me at the sane time im pushing this dog away who keepc comimg back. At one point i had to swing my daughter by her arm quickly away to stop the dog touching her as he went for her. The man who owns the dog just slowky walked over n slowly got his dog, didnt seem to care and said absolutely nothing and then I look at my partner n say what the actual fuck? Why are you just sitting there? He said what do you want me to do. Both children who were crying and screaming are autistic too and one non verbal and no understanding. My non verbal child already struggles in social situations and jumpy this is now going to make her even more scared to be outside. The man could also see his dog running towards us a mile off n did nothing to try call his dog back or stop it.

What y’all think.. Is he ungrateful or Am I not understanding ??

Ladies have yall had to deal with things from your significant other that you had no part of. Well let me tell yall what I’ve been going through.
When my dude gets very upset he start breaking shit. I’ve told him numerous of times that he needs to see someone about his anger issues cause it’s really a damn problem then after the shit broken he wants to have an attitude that the shit broken, like it’s my fault. Mine yall he has broken 6 phones and all being very expensive (3 Samsung notes and 3 iPhones), 2 65 in. TVs, a brand new computer desk and the gaming desk. This all since we’ve been together and out of everything this year he recently broke two iphones both his, the gaming chair and table ( which I brought for his bday last year $1200), & tv (Samsung $800)… then my dumb ass turned around and bought it again after he broke it along with steering wheel ($300). He brought his own tv. So mine yall I didn’t buy him another phone since he wanna keep breaking shit. So he been without a phone for a few months and we talked whenever he was around WiFi from our daughter play phone. He was mad about him not being able to contact me and everybody have iPads and tablets and him not having one. So me being me, I ordered him a nice Samsung A9 tablet but he was so ungrateful because Amazon sent the wrong case and wanted what he wanted. Then tried to break it cause the case he wanted was on back order. Then got pissed cause he still don’t have a phone. I’m like well I shouldn’t have gotten the tablet if you gone be like this. Went to metro to see if we can find a new phone cause the places that fixed phones said that his phone can be fix but he gone always have issues with it and it best to get a new one. While there got him a tablet case and no phone due to the one he wanted wasn’t in stock waiting on shipment to come. Went home to see if I can order him one thru Tmobile on my account he didn’t want that. Eventually he found what he wanted at Verizon but still had an attitude cause he had to wait til Monday that just left and it was ordered last week Thursday. He tells me I’m idc if he has things and blah blah blah I’m so over this. Am I not being understanding and accommodating or his being very selfish and ungrateful? I told him moving forward I won’t be doing shit else he’s worse than the children breaking shit then getting mad. I won’t be replacing anything else cause everything I buy he continuously destroys with no remorse so fuck going out my way to please and do for him. I replace more shit with him than the kids. I still have gotten my son a new complete setup but did his twice. Nope not no more. I’m focusing on rebuilding for my kids and fuck trying to make sure he’s good.
