Nice try, Cub West.

Covering up the poop farm logo with the reduced sticker... We all know it's from the poop farm.

My kids have the social skills of a wet towel.

Dinner: banana bread, no nuts.

I know Reddit is the absolute worst place to put this out there, but I'm just at a loss.

My girls are 6 and 3. Both have gone to daycare, oldest is going to kindergarten. Neither of them play like "normal" kids. The 3 year old is close. She'll amuse herself with toys for a while, or explore something new. She gets excited when she sees new friends.

The 6 year old? She's had problems with social skills for her entire life. She does ok every now and then, but if one of her friends is around too long? It's all over. Meltdowns over every little thing, constantly wanting to change what everyone else is doing, and just generally being someone who is not fun to hang out with.

I've talked to her. I've tried to coach her a bit, explain the situation and how it makes others feel when she won't compromise. She does prefer to play on her own a lot of the time, and that's ok. But her being mean and crying over everything is not ok. Nobody wants to play with the kid who just cries and throws things when they don't get their way.

It's just really, really obvious today that my kids aren't great at social things. 3 year old is mostly just in her obstinate phase, so she wants to cause trouble whenever she can. 6 year old thinks everyone has to do exactly what she wants when she wants to do it. We've got a bonus kid today-- one of 6 year old's classmates. She's pretty open to playing whatever, but she's also got a big personality. So, she'll make requests for what she wants to do, and then my kid will start crying because it wasn't her idea.

I just hate seeing my kid struggle with something that's so important. I've tried to help her, and her school is amazing. She's made huge progress over the last year. But I'm also shit in social situations, so I just don't know how to fix it. It's one thing that I really can't help her with. If I'm around, she just clings to me or expects me to fix everything. I can give her all the guidance I have, but she just has to figure out how to do it.

In the meantime, I'm managing 3 separate rages 🙃

When my ADHD brain says no to the to-do list, but the meds kick in

I cleaned the Caboodles that has held my makeup since 2004. Screw the pile of laundry on my bed!

The joy I feel when I hit the exact amount to get free shipping is unmatched.

I needed $25 to get free shipping for party favors. I was at $23.73. I found a number candle for $1.27.

Yesssss!

I could only name 17 OG Duggar kids today.

I forgot James, mostly because so did everybody else.

To quote Jim Bob, probably: "There's a Jason?"

Theory: for those who got suspension emails, have you applied for unemployment?

Just wondering if the "blind" tests and results were targeted. Because, you know, all we have are conspiracy theories instead of concrete information.
