Me: Hey Mad Dog, I found a Levi figure with a gun. I guess he doesn’t just cut bitches, he busts caps in them too:

Mad Dog: Now I’m picturing Levi rolling up in his barbie car and emptying his glock into my house. Me: In a Barbie Power Wheels. #thuglife

This THIS THIS THIS.

This is why people keep quiet about their mental illnesses…and why we need to speak up.

Is it normal to not really feel emotion, insted of actually feeling them you observe others behavior and mimic it to what you think it corresponds to. the emotions that you would normally feel like happiness, being sad, angry and so on just sink into your chest and become a bundle of pain that over time you forget about and just get used to adding more and more emotions to the ball and you are so used to the pain it causes as it grows bigger and bigger till finally you just start crying for no reason. All you are doing is something normal like brushing your teeth and then you feel a wetness on your face and spend forever trying to figure out what the wetness is and why it is happening. Your in a comfortable environment so you cannot be sweating but what else can it be you wonder? You are not used to crying that you cannot even remember what it is.... and after you are done crying you feel off and it takes you a minute to realise that pain that you got used to as slightly gotten better....

Sometimes I have to remind myself that doubting that you have a mental illness is often a symptom of having a mental illness

Hey, folks. I know this is a super long shot but a package my fiancee @undeadchestnut sent me from Germany had to be repackaged by USPS and they lost a painting in the process (this is the sketch the painting itself is based on). I’ll be contacting the USPS recovery center, but on the off chance one of you out there may have gotten it, could you please let me know? I’d really like to try and recover it. Please boost if you don’t mind. I’d appreciate it. Also, if someone out there was supposed to get a copy of “Study Smarts: How to Learn More In Less Time”, I have it. :/

I know that feeling. I was torn between so much disgust and horror but the art is so fucking good and I need yoonbum to be okay so I’ll keep an eye on him and the story like a mother full of regret still hanging on to those last threads of nurture.

I really think hospitals and doctors that work with pregnancy and pediatricians need to make more literature available for how to, ya know, work with kids?  Because the more conversations we have about spanking (and how it’s ineffective and harmful and does more bad than good), the more I realize that a lot of people don’t know the alternatives. Or like, anything about child development or where misbehavior stems from. 

So, as someone who went through childhood development classes in college, works with kids for a living, and knows multiple people who specialized in childhood education, here are some pointers when you are working with kids:

1. Model emotional response for kids. Children are learning how to recognize and respond to their own emotions. All the way up through high school, children’s brains are still developing, and the emotions they are learning to process become more complex. So with really young kids, the easiest way to help them with this is to model emotional self awareness and self care. 

  • “Oh wow, mommy is feeling angry because the cat made a mess. I’m going to clean this mess and then go sit in my room in the quiet for a short break so I feel better.”
  • “You know, I am feeling very sad about not going to the park because it is raining. I bet some hot chocolate and a book would make me feel better.”
  • ”Huh, I’m feeling kind of cranky and hungry, but daddy won’t be home for dinner for another hour. I bet I’ll feel better if I eat a little piece apple while we wait.” 

2. Understand what causes child frustration and work to preempt it. 

  • -Transitions (from one activity to another, getting in the car, etc) can be stressful, especially if the activity or location they are leaving is fun. Give kids a warning when this is going to happen. With young kids, give them about 5-15 minutes of warning (”10 minutes until we are going to leave the park and go home. Do your last thing.”), with older kids, just give them a time frame. (We are can play at McDonalds for 30 minutes, but then we have to go grocery shopping, ok?) 
  • Not being able to communicate what they want to is frustrating. Babies can learn simplified baby sign language months before they are verbal. Kids may not know the words for what they are trying to say. Be patient and help them find the right words. On a similar note, don’t ignore kids. If you really can’t respond to their question right away because of something else, at least tell the “Yes, I heard your question. I’ll answer you as soon as I’m done talking on the phone.”
  • Not being able to make choices or having too much choice can be overwhelming. Give kids a limited, reasonable selection of choices. “Do you want apple slices or juicy pears on the side for lunch?” is much better than “What do you want with your sandwich?” or just giving them apple slices. “Do you want to give grandpa a hug or a high five?” is better than demanding they hug grandpa right away. 

3. Understand that kids are people to. They will get hungry, tired, an annoyed just like adults do. Sometimes you have to be flexible and give them time to self care. Talk to them, explain things to them, let them be people and not just dolls.  “Because I said so” is really unhelpful for a growing kid. “We can’t buy Fruit Loops today because we are already getting Frosted Flakes. We only need one cereal at a time.” is going to do you a lot more favors. “Don’t pick up the glass snow globe. It belongs to grandma and can break easy. She would be sad if we broke it on accident.” is better than “don’t touch that.” 

And look, no parent is perfect. No baby sitter, no teacher, no care taker is going to be awesome all the time. And no kid is going to be perfect. They will cry and have tantrums, and not be able to tell you what they need, and be stubborn sometimes. Sometimes they need space, or quiet time. Sometimes they need attention and validation. 

But kids learn from every interaction they have, so adults who yell and hit and insult children when they misbehave raise kids who yell and hit and insult others when they feel like they’ve been wronged. 

This really sounds great! Learning to be flexible, especially early on, is very important in my opinion
