the first people to ever use terms of endearment for each other must have been so in love i'm in tears just thinking about it
Faking something, whether a symptom, identity or behaviour, is a conscious decision. You can’t unknowingly fake something.
And on top of that, if you were faking something and it was causing you distress or other problems, you could just stop.
If you have to ask yourself ‘am I faking this’ you’re not.
No grave can hold my body down, I'll crawl home to her.
one of my favorite human quirks is when the power goes out and you’re w other ppl and inevitably someone says ‘did the power go out?’ like...you’re all sitting there in the dead dark, tv black, wifi gone, lights OUT but still they’re like ‘hm. well I have a theory but it needs to be submitted for peer-review’
another one that's useful for dealing with basically any age is telling them when things are going to happen, ive babysat a lot of older kids (maybe 8-11 type ages) and the kids are always more receptive when im like "oh tablet time is over in ten minutes" instead of interrupting them and making them stop without warning. kids just like knowing whats happening and want to be treated with some respect.
yes exactly!! it's always good to give kids reminders, even multiple reminders for younger kids so they can keep track of what thirty minutes, ten minutes, and five minutes feels like
Guy wanted me to make him a queen-size blanket.
Not sure how this works. I'll figure things out as I go. But for now, I hope what I have isn't difficult to navigate.
