When I was in the 8th grade I was placed ahead in a few subjects so I took half my classes at my local high school. I mention this because the girls in my class were 15-16 and had more experience with periods than I did. I had only been having a period for a few months and was using pads, no tampons. I bled so badly through my shorts during a work period in class that there was a pool of blood on my chair. Luckily, all of the people sitting around me were girls. I told one of them and they all rallied together, helped me get to the bathroom unseen, gave me pads, and even helped clean up the blood quickly before anyone noticed. It made me feel so cared for and turned a truly horrific moment into what is now a sweet memory. Teenage girls are sometimes mean because of how they’re socialized, but they rock too. ❤
New parents take note, we will raise better generations of teenagers / humans that treat each other with respect & help each other out whenever in need. Start by putting healthy communication & sex education as one of the priorities. Start by teaching or modeling how we respect ourselves and others by knowing what is consent, boundaries & respect 🫡
A friend and her mom did something similar on a school trip when I got my first period! Friend gave me her jacket to throw around my waist and her mom helped me to the bathroom and gave me pads! Friend even gave me a clean pair of shorts for under my school skirt! My dad was also on that trip but was, unfortunately, of no use in that moment 😂
I don't know if this is just a common trait of our nationality (Filipino) or smthn but when I was in high school, I bled through my uniform skirt MULTIPLE TIMES. Never once did anyone laugh at me. Maybe a few (esp boys) were grossed out but they instantly gave me their pads or offered their hoodies for me to cover. I really don't get why anyone would laugh at someone who bled through.
Omg the cousin handing out the OnlyFans coupons had me ROLLING ! If any girl handed my fiancé an OnlyFans coupon I would be going Beth from Yellowstone on their ass
I have a theory that the reason cheaters often times do some really really nice things for their partners around the time when they cheat is that not only are they trying to justify in their own head that they are not shitty people for hurting their partners because “look at all these good things I’m doing for them” but they’re also preemptively love bombing you, so that if you do find out during any of the times they cheat, you’ll have good things that may soften your anger and not take it out on them
It could be also from sort of guilt, like “I’m cheating on her but hey I got her flowers and these gifts so I can’t be a horrible person”. It’s manipulation and like you said, love bombing.
First story reminded me of the guy who always said he girlfriend smelled, she started showering 3-5 times a day, used both deodorant and perfume, brushed and flossed her teeth several times a day. And after all that he kept saying she smelled, remember what happened to her ? She broke down crying, she felt digusting and humiliated. And why did the guy say this ? Because his dad told him to, his father's words were " if you tell them they smell, they will never leave you" so what did OP (the girlfriend) do ? She left, because he abused he so badly that all her selfesteem was gone.
Yes! I remember this hitting hard when I first heard it. I'm a naturally smelly person , Upto 23 I didn't realise I was allergic to aluminium - a common ingredient in deodorant and the more deodorant I used the stronger I stunk. My ex used to tell me I was disgusting, to sort it out, the entire time I was showering constantly, changing my clothes. Anytime I went to the loo, I'd have an armpit wash, deodorant, perfume the lot. Then he'd say I stunk of perfume. He hated any perfume on me, and would say 'why can't you just smell normal?' . The anxiety around smelling was horrendous. The day I switched to natural deodorant my life was changed forever. One of the 1st things I said to my current partner when I spent the night was 'i'm naturally smelly ' and he was like 'you always smell wonderful to me' There are days I forget and he never says a word- even though I'm dying inside because I can smell myself xxxxx
And what does that have to do with this story lol? Because the guy in that story was lying about his gf smelling bad just to be a controlling abusive a hole. The girl in this story actually did stink.. badly. So I guess I don't get the comparison since that story has literally nothing to do with this one.
@@bailey7792 What i mean with the story is the girl's confidence had taken a serious hit and so the possibilty is very real that OP has now scared her daughter and she could've gone about it differently. If you didn't get that i hope this cleared it up.
yeah but this girl was probably not showering. and coming from someone with depression, you can cover it up with deodorant, perfume, and dry shampoo. but that girl did nothing 🧍♂️
The fact that K from story 2 said he would talk Ellie into terminating her pregnancy also extremely problematic who does he think he is to coerce someone into a decision like that????? No wonder OP felt disgusted by him after that
RIGHT i was reeling at that part! as if his happiness is more important than a mother's choice to keep her baby. he thinks he deserves to have his cake and eat it too, no matter who he hurts, and everyone else has to bend over backwards to create this weird alternate universe where it's ok to knock someone else up when you're in a relationship? the audacity! 😵💫
The cops needed to be called the second time he showed up at her parents house. Have him trespassed this is stocker behaviour. 100’s of calls, showing up multiple times on private property. This guy could be dangerous
Yeah that one was so disgusting! It says so much about him that he 1. Would be willing to do that to another person, 2. Thinks that admitting that he'd do that would be something his gf would appreciate and 3. Is so sure that his powers of convincing are so great he could talk a pregnant woman, who's against terminations, into terminating. That just tells you how manipulative he really is and that he'll go to any length to get his way.
For this first story I can offer a little insight from experience. My brother is on the spectrum and when he hit puberty his hygiene was HORRIBLE. So, my parents basically badgered him into showering everyday and taking care of himself. It wasn’t soft but not harsh either it was…finish your breakfast and take a shower and it’s 10am go take a shower now! He got so fed up with us being on his butt that he did it himself at different times throughout the day and now it’s a part of his daily routine. I don’t think embarrassment at school was worth it, guilt and embarrassment at home works very well too.
Yeah, same worked fine for both my cousin and my best friend. No need for making school harder than it already is, especially if you're on the spectrum.
I 100% agree and even if you don’t have any disabilities and your just lazy that is how I can be when it comes to brushing my teeth I wish my parents would do that
@@amycate121as an asd teen, taking the pill saved my life, the sensory issues on my period were so bad, I hated myself and cried bc of how bad bleeding and cramps were, now I don’t have my period anymore bc I take a pill
So Ellie was trying to get with him all along? The audacity to show up at her house when she's the mistress and admit she's "pregnant". She tried to baby trap him and failed. Also why on the security camera was he throwing things and showing violent behaviours? This was actually a blessing to this girl, he showed his true colours before it was to late.
I LAUGHED when she was like “you’re the reason he cut me off now” biiiiiiiiiiiiitch get out, she’s just mad that she went through all that trouble and nobody won.
Story 4 was way too wild and I so agree with Alejandra - the cousin is full on an asshole for doing what she did but the fiancé showed his true colors. It’s tragic that she had a shit holiday in addition to learning how crap her fiancé was to act that way. I LOVE the discussions y’all get to ❣️
If those discount cards were a sort of relationship/trust test, every male in-law/boyfriend failed except the guy who told his wife 😂 congrats to that one cousin for having a loyal and communicative partner 😂😂
with anna giving out her discount code to her OF, it’s 100% sexual. the way she only gave it to her families boyfriends/husbands, not her family, not her brother’s gay husband, and not even to the wives/girlfriends of the family. i remember reading that story while i was sitting at my boyfriend’s house and literally getting a visceral reaction. she needs to cut off her fiancé and stop talking to her cousin. WIIIIILD
Im autistic so for the first story my blood was BOILING!!! that poor girl :( i’d just like to let y’all know that in the autistic community we don’t use “high functioning” or “low functioning” and rather use high or low “support needs” I’d be glad if they chose OT over ABA (since ABA is essentially conversion therapy) and i’m glad the mom realized her wrongs and is going to fix it. that’s like the best outcome to a poor situation.
Thanks for the information on high/low functioning. English is not my first language, so I had no idea it had changed. I prefer the "higher support needs" over "low functioning" though. I hope similar changes will happen in my mother tongue.
4th story: Rachel's boyfriend is a smart man. All the other men went feral for Ana's "gift", but I bet he's the only one still getting laid. All the newly single women in the family should maybe consider taking advice from Rachel on how to pick em.
This is where we are as a society : successfully making women feel insecure for having common sense and feeling a certain way when their SO act disrespectful
We need to make up our mind... Either Only-Fans is supercool "Get your bag" OR The partners were wrong to check out the quote "whore" unquote cousin's account. It can't be both. It can't be both. Somebody's father, somebody's husband, somebody's boyfriend .... is paying her cousin to see her cousin naked.
@@adhilakhan4333I think it's specifically because it's HER cousin. Like that's your partners family member you see regularly enough. That's where it goes into uncomfortable territory. It'd be different if it was a stranger!
*no* *no* *no* BE CONSISTENT. Somebody's father, somebody's husband, somebody's boyfriend .... is paying her cousin to see her cousin naked. *Either* Only-Fans is supercool "Get your bag" *OR* The partners were wrong to check out the quote "whore" unquote cousin's account. PICK ONE.
with the first story i feel like the simple, sensory friendly solution is just to get her thinx underwear or the ones in that style from aerie, i have adhd and forget to change out what ever i’m using a lot of the time so those underwear have been really helpful. strongly recommend edit: after doing some research i’ve learned that Thinx and some other brands of period underwear contain PFAS which can cause a lot of negative health affects so before buying do your research on the brand’s reliability and if anyone can find out if aerie also have PFAS let me know bc i couldn’t find anything
hey! i have adhd also and have started using modi bodi period underwear and had have no issues! they also have more traditionally “masculine” style underwear which is great for trans inclusivity! overall 10/10, but not sure what shipping is like (i’m in UK so wasn’t too expensive)
I don’t think the mom was wrong, it’s a natural consequence and at 14 they should know what’s going to trigger them and at least try to remedy it. And the fact that afterwards they were able to keep themselves decent shows it could have been done the whole time.
i understand why you say that, but that 14 year old girl is on the autism spectrum, her mind is not the same as neurotypical individuals. that poor girl is going to be upset and traumatized for a very long time. the mom had good intentions but carried them out in a horribly wrong way.
Story 2: honestly I learned from a while back that the person cheating on you 9/10 they hate themselves. Dude is going to school with no debt, from a wealthy family, had a woman that loved him with her whole heart and still he decided to blow his whole life up. Idk that’s so pathetic and sad to me and obviously it’s still hurts to be cheated on but when you put that mindset to it. It’s like you don’t even feel sad for yourself anymore cus you know your gonna be fine at the end of the day but this man could have had everything now he gonna be searching for anything 🤦🏾♀️… but idk maybe it’s just me that thinks like that. I been though some bs lol
About the OnlyFans marketing, I know someone who just started hers, made business cards, and asked her male friends to leave a bunch in the male bathroom at bars. Anyone that flirts with her, gets a card. That's the only way she has marketed so far and has a decent following.
This first story makes me want to bawl. I'm a momma of a 9 year old on the spectrum- it's our job to protect these kids. She purposely made her child a target. Absolutely heartbreaking
I agree! I also have 2 daughters (6 & 8 yrs old) I could never intentionally allow either of them to be bullied! Especially about such a sensitive subject!! So glad OP learned her lesson & is actively helping her daughter be able to do the same.
Hey momma, you're a rock star for taking care of & advocating for your little one ❤ I'm a caregiver (with a few clients on the spectrum) & I would like to add yes always protect your child, but it is also your job to teach your child important & valuable life lessons I see it a lot when parents prioritize sheltering their child over allowing them to have experiences, make mistakes & learn. Which ultimately ends up holding them back & it's painful to see. I've met lots of individuals with varying disabilities functioning at a level much lower than they are capable of from being sheltered this way & which stunts their development. Parents are often blind to it because they are just happy the child is safe. But the reality is they've limited their child's quality of life. & what happens if one day, they are no longer around? A child who would one day be capable of living an independent & fulfilling life could instead end up in a home with strangers put in charge of their well being. & Unfortunately many in the nursing industry do NOT have the best interest of their patients in mind. I've sadly seen it many times & reports of abuse often get thrown out because of how under staffed these facilities typically are. Unfortunately this momma found herself in a tough spot between protecting her daughter by doing all the work & clean up for her VS teaching her the importance of basic hygiene through a tough love life lesson. Unable to find the middle ground If were her, I would still offer help to get cleaned up & give lots of reminders, but ultimately make it clear her personal hygiene is her responsibility & work towards getting her to a place of as much independence she is capable of. Ie whenever she's messy or smelly point it out & remind her that means it's time to shower & asks if she would like some help. Set up a simple reward system. Give lots of praise. Communicate with the school nurse & her teachers to also inforce these things at school. Remind her to pack a change of clothes & toiletries but also give a backup set of clothes to the school nurse & an extra precaution. (Getting the school staff involved would also add that social aspect of why hygiene is important as apposed to it coming in the form of bullying from her peers) Parents of disabled children don't get enough credit for doing their best, making mistakes learning through trial & error, & for when they experience burn out. My heart goes out to both the mother & daughter in this story. I hope the daughter is thriving & mom & dad both getting more educated everyday
Story 5 makes me think that maybe the guy is having an affair, and that's why he keeps missing the scans. Men have audacity, but missing every single scan for something as small as football or fish and chips? That you can get out of, but having an empty house for an hour? Perfect opportunity to bring someone over
The story of the girl walking on bf hits deep, when I got cheated on I didn’t walk in but hear it on our security cameras…. My heart shattered, I’m still trying to pick up the pieces…. This has been the tough 4 months I can remember
I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you. Take all the time you need to heal, the betrayal is intense. Setting boundaries is a good way to get back control and self worth. But you do whatever you need to get back to being you. You didn't deserve it.
I'm so sorry this happened to you. I have also been on the receiving end of cheating, but I never discovered him in the act. I can only imagine how traumatic that must be, and your trauma is valid! It's a horrible, horrible thing to experience and it hurts the heart so much to have a loved one betray you so deeply. Stay strong and don't let him manipulate you into staying with him because it is very rare that cheating is an isolated incident!
As a pregnant person with an autistic husband who also walked in on my ex husband cheating on me previously, this episode had me SCREAMING at the TV so many times 😂
On the missing the Dr. Appt story, it’s reminding me of the one story where the boyfriend abandoned his partner at the hospital after appendicitis for a World Cup match, then his family harassed her at Christmas but they where engaged at this point and expecting… same guy?
OMG yea! I remember that. She had a similar story where he wasn't supporting her after too, like obviously, and reddit just collectively gave up and then the girl ended up DEFENDING their marriage.
Story 3: I’m a mom who’s adopted my children. Each child has a different style of adoption with completely different bio family stories. With one child we have an open adoption and we are very secure in our position of being the parents, but I can tell you that if I had a brother or brother-in-law make these jokes I would be very upset. Jokes like this would make my kids feel on the outside of the family, would make them feel less than. And depending on where I was in my infertility journey and healing this would hinder my ability to move forward. Definitely the AH
As someone who's autistic hygen can be hard. For me its the transition, getting in the shower isn't that bad, but getting out is awful because I hate being wet and cold and I hate having wet hair. Sometimes its also just a matter of legitimately forgetting. I'd also like to add that the terms "high functioning" and "low functioning" are generally avoided within the community because it implies that some people are "more" autistic than others when we're all just autistic. I'd recommend looking into the support needs model.
Nta 1 story Why is it only during the periods that she doesn't maintain them self ? Also what does everyone think was gonna happen while the kid is at school. She allowed her kid to make her own choice to wear white pants and even if she had her kid change what about once the kid is at school and had bleeding or the odor issue. Should the parent Scrub her child herself? Like shit happens and depending on when the periods started op has been going through this battle for years! But I agree there is no mention of pads or free bleeding or even past examples of what the mom has done other than clean the mess and she could have had the dad start doing the clean up stuff since he SEEM from op post that he doesn't see an issue that badly. Okay now with the update kid was free bleeding no way in hell that kid is not standing her free bleeding all over every seat no pant change would have stopped the billing also kid is activly in therapy, and has an active doctor, nothing this parent did would have changed the outcome THAT DAY man so many back seat parents on here.
I'm neurodivergent. Mom is the ahole. 10000% you will not change my mind. Do you know how awful it is to have all your actions motivated by fear? Mom and/or dad aren't doing what they need to to set their child up for success. I mean here Mom set her up for failure, but I'm talking before this, they were not putting enough effort in to raising the child they have. Like they're probably regularly putting in the effort to raise a NT kid, but not their ND one. They probably put her in ABA too, or would have had it been an option. Also just a heads up, a lot of the community does not like functioning labels like high or low functioning.
Sorry, but as someone that is also “neurodivergent”, I fully disagree. If she’s capable of taking care of her own hygiene, like the story clearly states after she learned a lesson, she’s just stubborn. The mother said she actively fought, and it makes the community look bad. People already think autism is either black or grey; this only makes it worse. And also, just say autistic. Are you ashamed of it, so you instead have to prep it up with the scientific reference? Also, YES. There is a huge difference between someone who is throwing poop at you (personal experience with a kid) and somebody who can drive a car and function normally within a society. I don’t give a damn about “labeling autism”. Sometimes it’s important. God damn, it’s like nobody understands that autism is legitimately different for everyone. Now, we don’t know what range of the spectrum she falls on, and I could be overlooking certain sensory issues. But this to me, at least how the mother told it, seems like defiance. Some people just need to be called people and be held accountable. People damn, we are people. We’re not.. aliens.
I disagree that the cousin shouldn’t take any blame. Women are more emotionally (and I think logically) intelligent. She knew exactly what she was doing and completely disrespecting her cousins AND their relationships. To their faces.
The story about her boyfriend sleeping with their friend… wow. My heart breaks for her. That’s an ultimate betrayal. I especially can’t imagine walking in on that. Some people are trying disgusting.
For story 4: you can be mad at the cousin 😂 idgaf, I’m mad at both of them. Tf is my cousin giving my man her only fans promo code like tf is wrong with her. Be VERY mad at your man but you can be mad at your cousin
As soon as I open the app I see the new episode!!! Having a rough start to the year but I can always count on Morgan and everyone on THT to make my day :)
Going through catching my boyfriend cheating because of “hey girl” texts it was a lot easier to end up forgiving him. One day though I caught him cheating with my own eyes and something just snapped where it felt like any ties or resemblance of love that was left was gone and cut off I just packed everything and left blocking him on everything. I thought maybe giving the benefit of the doubt would make things ok after the first time but at that point I was just gaslighting myself into staying. Moral of the story trust your guts and don’t give second chances with that sort of stuff it doesn’t matter how loving you are. :/
There is a comment on the 4th story that I love and just had to share on here and it this "Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house the silence was broken by clicks of the mouse. The page was up on the family living room TV it was our beloved cousin and her large titties, come dancer come prancer come donner and blitzen, All the male relatives were eyeing the only fans vixen. The gift may have been a tad uncouth but so was blasting the ASMR audio through Alexa's Bluetooth. Let us remember in good kindness and cheer not to invite Cousin Anna to Christmas next year"
For story 1 maybe she could look into other period products like period underwear? something that might be more comfortable for her daughter. I have an autistic brother who struggles with hygiene so we’ve found products he’s comfortable with and ones he likes.
The Mom’s update about her daughter’s discomfort wearing pads/tampons literally made me cry. Sure, she realized what she did was wrong, but once her daughter shared her discomfort she should’ve reached out to her doctor and found a way to help her. She didn’t take care of herself because she was actually physically uncomfortable, she needed help and her person she could go to for womanly help and advice, turned her out to the wolves to be dinner. How heartbreaking.
I feel for the mama tbh. She got burnt out & made a hard switch from doing all the hygiene & clean up for her to "f*ck around & find out" & "bet you won't do that again" She seemed at such a loss for what to do to help her daughter & from the sounds of it the father wasn't helping much Parents of children with disabilities don't get enough grace. I'm a caregiver & burn out is extremely common for us workers but 10× more for the parents who don't get to clock out at the end of the day like i do, didn't sign up to work with disabilities like I did, and didn't receive all the training & information in advance like I got. &on top of that, the state makes them jump through so many over complicated & sometimes impossible hurdles in order to get any sort of help. My heart goes out to both mama & daughter. I hope the both parents have been able to obtain more information & support and their daughter thriving
Only fans on Christmas story: if her intent was just marketing, why not give to the female relatives to give out? Or advertise? Why only the hetero- non blood related males? Very clear her intent was a bit less innocent then she claims.
I’m autistic and really struggled with hygiene as a kid. Still do, but it was especially traumatic during puberty. Autistic people experience things differently and we are very susceptible to developing trauma from experiences others might consider no big deal. If my mom did what OP did to her daughter, I would never trust her again. It is already so hard to keep up with the social standards of everyone else, the last thing that poor girl needs is to be bullied and shamed by her own mother. My mom telling me people will think I’m gross if I didn’t have better hygiene didn’t help me, it just made me feel more like a freak that was bad at being a person. Instead, address WHY she’s not managing her hygiene. If my mom had just asked I would’ve broke down crying about how hard it is to gather the energy to take care of my body, and when I did it was incredibly distressing and even painful (like brushing my hair). I just needed help, not shame. Also a note for Morgan: most autistic people find functioning labels really offensive. Not all, but it is something to be mindful of.
My thoughts on the first story, and I haven't even finished it yet, are, a, proper parenting and how they mother/parents handled period talk and talk about puberty, hygiene etc, if it isn't spoken about or practiced regularly, how is a kid supposed to know. My second thought is therapy. what is the underlying reason of not wanting to practice proper hygiene or feeling unable to. not to do something humiliating, unsupportive, and unhygenic to your young child in a difficult, strange part of life
What gets me is that in the update she even says the kid had a therapist on deck so she had that resource and didn’t take it, and then intentionally set her kid up to be humiliated
Story 4 That cousin should be barred from family function for a few YEARS. That is so evil and disgusting. And yeah OP should leave her fiance. He was about to basically commit inlaw incest.
Not even 8 minutes in and I’m bawling. Screaming at my phone “SHES FKN AUTISTIC!” I hope this story gets better but I might have to wait for the rest of this episode if they’re all this upsetting :(
@@TwoHotTakes thanks for the reply! I’m glad I continued the episode once I calmed down ❤ I never skip episodes sometimes I just have to wait til I’m in a better headspace.
The Fiancé getting the Only Fans discount Gift had me 😂 I Wonder what He was thinking when He got it, then what he was thinking when he found out she was handing them out around to the other Family Partners. That’s is weird as haha and I find it so funny someone could receive that ✨gift✨ and then be like “Ooo I better hide this one 🤭 hehe” bloody Weirdo and the cousin is right off too for her gift idea haha holey crap 🤣🤣
That first story pissed me off. As a thirty year old autistic person who has periods I have struggled for years with hygiene during periods. I recently discovered period panties and it has made such a difference. There are ways to accommodate the sensory nightmares
Out of curiosity, as someone who's experienced similar struggles to the daughter, what would you recommend a mother in her position should do instead? I agree she did not handle it properly, but she also seemed incredibly burnt out & at a loss for what to do. Unfortunately lot of parents don't get much help or information Hopefully you're perspective & insight could help others from making the same mistake(s)
My daughter (10 at the time) with ass once wanted to walk in her flipflops while we were going to walk into town which would be 5k to and 5k back. It wasn't the first time we did that and I told her to put on her sandals. She was adamant about it and I told her we wouldn't be able to carry her and it would be on her when it would undoubtedly start to hurt. My mother was extremely upset with me when my daughter started to complain of sore feet, but I know my daughter, she won't listen to good advice until she experiences it for herself. She never went on 10k walks again on flipflops and we never had an argument about it ever again. To cut a long story short, some children won't listen because they need the experience to learn, they aren't dumb, they learn differently. My daughter is currently in college going for her bachelor's.
Story 5: She is definitely gonna be a married single mother and I mean that as in, she is gonna be the sole caretaker of their child and her husband is most likely only going to be involved when it’s convenient to him. He’s not gonna get up for the midnight feedings or diaper changes, he’s probably gonna use weaponized incompetence to get out of basic childcare, sure he may take them to the park or to get ice cream and be the “fun” parent, but when shit hits the fan, he’s gonna leave that all to her. This is all, of course, an assumption, but the type of man who would say, “Im not the one carrying the baby” is definitely not the kind of man who’s gonna be involved when it matters most.
There are period pants that you don't need to have a pad or tampon. The blood soaks in like a pad. There are light, medium, and heavy flow pants. They are great for anyone, especially children.
I had to go to my anatomy scan alone because Rona. I was told I had a rare placenta tumor that baby likely couldn't survive, baby appeared to have a very bad heart defect, and his kidneys looked off but that was probably because the heart. I then had to get in the car where my husband had my 3y/o, 2y/o, and infant waiting, and I had to somehow tell him.
“Relax it’s just a joke…” yes but your not funny that’s the issue. He deserved to be kicked out… what a strange “joke”. It’s one thing if someone told a funny offensive joke (NOT about a child or adopted child… jeeesum😳) and got kicked out but that was a good reason to kick someone out of a family dinner for sure! He absolutely needs to know how to read a room and maybe just give up on the jokes cause he just doesn’t have it.
I 100% agree with their take on story 1. It is up to the parents to teach their daughter how to have good hygiene and up to them and her team (therapists, teachers etc) to figure out what works best for her and what the problems are and how to fix them. Autism is hard enough on someone (I have a daughter with severe Autism) and her home and her family is where and with who she should feel the safest and most protected. Shame on this mother for putting her through that instead of finding a better way.
I knew a family that had 3 adopted kids and one of the bio parents of the kid tried taking him back. If anyone made a joke during or after they fought to keep him with his family, the 'jokester' would be more than kicked out. Ethan did the right thing even if Joey's bio parents aren't in the picture but if they are it's going to helurt even more
In the first story y'all mentioned you shouldn't be grossed out by the idea of period blood. While I agree I didn't agree with the part that you were saying not to be grossed out by the blood on a chair. It's still blood and if blood grosses you out, that's okay, it's the same as if you had a nose bleed and it got on the chair. You can be grossed out by the idea of period blood while also being okay with periods cause I've meet girls who hate blood but put up with it for a period but still worry about getting blood on their hand cause they hate blood. It's not cause it was period blood, it's cause it's blood
Story 4- I disagree with the bit where they say the cousin isn’t at fault for the relationship(s) failing. I wouldn’t give her the full blame but she played a part. It’s one thing to a side girl unaware but to go out of your way to make a discount code, print it on pink paper and put in an envelope is doing it complete awareness. Yes she’s not a side girl, but being self aware is still the there which is the whole point. Who does that? what was the ultimate goal there? There more motive to it in my opinion. Maybe she needed new partners for her videos and this was her way in to let them know of her career and hoping they’d made the move she wanted to do.
@@diya-hn2wy you still want the coin and have ulterior motives. Hella weird to go after married/taken people to build your platform, especially family.
my brother has FAS and he’s 19 and my parents have to remind him everyday to put on deodorant, take a shower. And he HATES brushing his teeth it always ends up in a fight. This is just my brother but i’ve seen other people with disabilities struggle with hygiene too.
It’s infuriating how many dad’s skip the important appointments during pregnancy. My husband couldn’t attend any of my appointments with our first due to Covid restrictions. With our second, I always tried to schedule the big appointments during his days off and whenever it wasn’t possible, he would take the day off and go with me. That poor lady has to deal with all of that alone. I remember how nervous and anxious I felt during my first pregnancy knowing that if I got any bad news, I would be alone to take that in.
The adoption one is literally so gross. I’ve been fostering my nephew for going on two years and have been fighting so hard to get it pushed to adoption and hopefully that’s coming to close this year. If anyone sat and joked about my nephews bio parents coming to the door I’d flip. His mom has shown up at our house, broken into our cars. Like it’s scary and not fun to go through all of that and though they just adopted you have no idea where bio parents come from and what type of behaviors they have. Terrible way to joke with those parents.
I got my FIRST period in bluejeans in school. The popular girls went to the vp and had me called down in front of the whole class while giggling. My mom hadn't even taught me about my period yet (think I was 9), so I was scared and sobbing. the nurse helped and was kind. but they sent me back to class in the same jeans. My friend lent me a sweater and said it happens to the best of us. I'm 27 now and still can feel how mortified I was. I feel so sorry for the girl.
My depression makes it so hard to brush my teeth/hair and showering is almost impossible. Idk if I have autism, I've never been tested, but I can imagine that it is even harder to keep that train of thought
As someone who suffers from heavy periods, I know how hard it is to avoid bleeding through some days and I'm not on the spectrum as far as I know. Kids can be cruel. When I was in high school I would at least look out for other girls, if I noticed the bleeding I would at least say something and see if we could find something for her to change into or put over her clothes but not teens or kids care, they just want to fit in and make jokes. I can't imagine purposely doing that to a teen. I'm happy the mother at least learn from this experience.
I used to suffer from heavy periods, my saviors have been birth control and menstrual cups. Even with just the menstrual cups they kept me from bleeding through.
@Its Steph same I took that during my junior and senior year and most of the beginning of my adult life but I stopped a few years ago to attempt getting pregnant. Edit: for birth control, I don't use the cups.
Am I losing my mind? Didn’t you read the Only Fans holiday story on another podcast? I don’t watch anyone else who reads Reddit stories and I remember you reading it, because I told my husband about it when we were shopping lmao please tell me I’m not the only one
I think it’s trashy and rude to give your OF to your families spouses and partners. It’s not meant to protect them or else she would have given the women a heads up to see if they wanted this test done. Instead, it was to line her pocket book. Not an act of love from her.
I've heard the first story in several different shapes, all including period blood, social punishments and elaborating on how unclean the teen was - to the point is was unnecessarily detailed. Almost like the post itself was another shaming the autistic attempt. Even if the story ending with the mother "understanding she did something wrong". Idk but something feels OFF about it. Would keep it in mind if ya read another version really similar, but different enough to be another story.
I have a 14 y/o boy on the spectrum and getting him to shower, brush his teeth, put on deodorant is like pulling teeth. He will even take a shower without using soap and I won’t notice until his hair dries that it’s still very greasy. Hearing this made me feel like it’s not a him problem and probably just the touch of the Tism. ❤❤❤❤** edit after listening further I’m glad she leaned but that was so beyond out of pocket. But even making these rapid changes will take time to repair what she did.
As an autistic person I can solidly say it’s not just him. 14 year old boys in general struggle with hygiene and adding being autistic on top of that makes it all the more difficult. OT might really help him with this, but if that’s not an option I’d suggest trying to create a space where he feels safe to talk about WHY he’s struggling with it. Hygiene practices are a sensory nightmare for a lot of autistic people. For me, the changes in temperature, the feeling of all the different soaps, the scrubbing, the smells, etc. are often way too much to handle, even as an adult. It’ll take time, especially with a teen that doesn’t want to listen. But with patience , accommodations, and empathy, he’ll get there. On days I can’t shower thoroughly I use baby wipes and have someone help me wash my hair in the sink or use dry shampoo. I use a spray deodorant instead of a stick so there’s less residue on my skin. There’s always a way to make it work ❤️
Definitely not just him ❤ My sister is on the spectrum and still struggles with showers at age 23. Luckily my mom worked in special Ed, worked closely with OTs, and knew to find alternatives. The solution in her case was to “dry shower” with baby wipes, apply deodorant, and change into fresh undies and clothes daily, in between full showers. Sis still does that to this day and very rarely needs to be gently nudged to shower due to any kind of odor or greasy hair. I struggle with mental illness so sometimes I struggle with showers too and employ the same method when that’s the case. I have a cousin on the spectrum who can ONLY take baths, no showers. Have patience and seek out an OT if you’re unable to help him find a sustainable solution ❤
@@blythe9631 thanks for the advice and tips. I’ve learned with him not making him use a washcloth or a scrubbie has made a difference. That and reminding him every time he showers to use soap. When he picks up after himself and makes sure he takes care of himself he gets to play on his Switch. With consistency that seems to have improved over time. Nothing is a quick fix with us, we just adapt and learn what does and doesn’t work for him. Which can be challenging because that changes. We have a great support team and are always working to help him be the most successful and independent we can ❤️
I know I can NOT be loyal. I know I have commitment issues and I make sure I make that super clear whenever I meet people that I’m just here to have fun not have anything that’s necessarily serious. Because that’s not fair to them. If I lie and get myself into a situation I’m not unhappy with. Like y’all. if you can’t commit JUST DONT DATE. stop playing with peoples emotions because of your lack of self control.
The fact that the couple in the cheating story were financially well off plays a big unspoken part in this story. The boyfriend buys her things to ease the guilt of cheating. More importantly, he keeps making "offers" to try to win her back. He thinks the relationship is a transaction that be negotiated. He does not realize that once the emotional damage is done, nothing can buy her back.
1:24:02 - fun fact, there is a difference between "fries" and "chips" and it's all to do with the cut of the potato. Thin cuts are fries whereas thick cuts are chips.
That first story makes me so sad. I couldn’t imagine allowing my daughter to go to school knowing she would get bullied or made fun of…. I never want my daughter to have to experience this cruel world. She will forever hear what those kids said in her brain, she will be 30 and still think about it. I know it is fustrating but keep being a parent and protect and teach your child.
as an autistic girl, who had bad hygiene around the same age, honestly, that was definitely needed. I struggled with brushing my hair for most of my life due to my mom never being gentle with my very sensitive scalp (due to chemical use for lice) so I associated hair brushing with pain and discomfort. So I'd never brush my hair, till 8th grade we were getting all the knots out and this was a pretty much yearly to every few months kind of thing. So my mom was threatening to shave my head as she always did so I said, okay shave it, because I was in so much pain from brushing the giant clumps from my hair so that's what she did. 4 years later I have had little to no problems brushing my hair now in fact I treasure my hair more than ever and it's one of the things I struggle with the least. Tbh I blame my mom for it getting to that point since she was extremely cruel towards me, and we didn't know about my autism so there was never any realization that I might just need things done differently. But the way this mom handled it was great, sometimes it takes being embarrassed to learn something, and it's not like she was happy that her kid got bullied for that. Being autistic doesn't make you def, her mom told her what would happen and she didn't listen and now she knows and is doing better. Sometimes you just have to learn that hard way as an autistic person to be able to break habits. Also picking her clothes out could be contributing to the problem like she could just not know self care because she is being taken care of so helping her be more independent is definitely a good idea from the post the daughter sounds pretty high functioning so idt it'd be a problem for her to be learning to be independent especially because shes getting close to adult hood and somethings will be harder for her to get the hang of.
Someone needs to tell the mother from the first story about menstrual cups, honey pot co pads (still cotton but different more comfortable feeling), reusable pads, reusable panties, there’s so many options other than the regular pads and tampons.
My best friend and i are huge fans and it be great if you guys would come to El Paso ! Can’t wait to see the podcast grow more and more ! Love you guys
I asked my boyfriend what would he do in this situation (about the cousins Christmas gift) and he said that he would tell me after we left to not cause drama or ruin Christmas. Which I could respect because I would have definitely shut down the party.
Story 4: the fact that she was only giving it to guys is basically her telling on herself. Also to Morgan’s story about the sending people sweaty panties and p*ssy pops; sounds like an easy yeast infection or something like that. Ick.
the first story is so cruel honestly i had extremely bad social anxiety when i first got my period and i had harsh teachers i was so afraid to ask to use the restroom i had a few accidents and it was humiliating. i would never be able to forgive my parents if they knew i had a hard time with something and set me up to be bullied and humiliated for that very thing. there had to be a better way to teach her the consequences of her actions ya know
Same! I remember once asking a teacher to go the loo and she said no. I was so uncomfortable, I sat through the majority of the class holding back tears because I knew I was leaking- she asked me to come to her and I shuffled to the door- she goes 'do you need to change?' and I was so embarrassed but also so grateful. I'm a teacher now and anytime a girl goes 'Miss I NEED the toilet!!' I give them my lanyard and ask if they need anything - I keep a drawer in my cupboard with pads, tampons and wipes. I let them know - help yourself. Anytime. I don't care. Xxxxx
The beginning bit is so true, the covid part. I was like 20-21? When covid started, now I'm almost halfway through my 20's (I have a few years until I'm 25...well 🙄 a year...). Where did the time go? I feel so young and so ancient at the same time. I feel like I've missed out on everything 🥺.
When I was in the 8th grade I was placed ahead in a few subjects so I took half my classes at my local high school. I mention this because the girls in my class were 15-16 and had more experience with periods than I did. I had only been having a period for a few months and was using pads, no tampons. I bled so badly through my shorts during a work period in class that there was a pool of blood on my chair. Luckily, all of the people sitting around me were girls. I told one of them and they all rallied together, helped me get to the bathroom unseen, gave me pads, and even helped clean up the blood quickly before anyone noticed. It made me feel so cared for and turned a truly horrific moment into what is now a sweet memory. Teenage girls are sometimes mean because of how they’re socialized, but they rock too. ❤
Good on them, those are some real ones, they are the “good ones out there”
New parents take note, we will raise better generations of teenagers / humans that treat each other with respect & help each other out whenever in need. Start by putting healthy communication & sex education as one of the priorities. Start by teaching or modeling how we respect ourselves and others by knowing what is consent, boundaries & respect 🫡
A friend and her mom did something similar on a school trip when I got my first period! Friend gave me her jacket to throw around my waist and her mom helped me to the bathroom and gave me pads! Friend even gave me a clean pair of shorts for under my school skirt! My dad was also on that trip but was, unfortunately, of no use in that moment 😂
I don't know if this is just a common trait of our nationality (Filipino) or smthn but when I was in high school, I bled through my uniform skirt MULTIPLE TIMES. Never once did anyone laugh at me. Maybe a few (esp boys) were grossed out but they instantly gave me their pads or offered their hoodies for me to cover. I really don't get why anyone would laugh at someone who bled through.
I loved reading this. This made my day! ❤
Omg the cousin handing out the OnlyFans coupons had me ROLLING ! If any girl handed my fiancé an OnlyFans coupon I would be going Beth from Yellowstone on their ass

They're blessed bc the fiance's/ husband's true characters were shone. Or maybe that's just me trying to see the bright side in every situation.
@@geemorales3555 yeah, but still she shouldn’t be giving her of to literal married or taken men

If the gift wasn’t sexual and was “just marketing “ why didn’t the actual cousins get some?
Yes, I thought the exact same
and the gay husband
This!!! Cousin Anna sucks and I would cut her from my life!
Rachel is the only one with a loyal man...damn
This!! I would have zero issues (if I could afford it) sub for them $5 a month to support them! But....then loose the link 😅
RE: the cousin with the OF. She knew exactly what she was doing and the problems it would cause. She wanted that attention.
Hell, it seems like a warning to the cousins too.
Plot twist the gift was actually showing the brothers in-law true colors
I have a theory that the reason cheaters often times do some really really nice things for their partners around the time when they cheat is that not only are they trying to justify in their own head that they are not shitty people for hurting their partners because “look at all these good things I’m doing for them” but they’re also preemptively love bombing you, so that if you do find out during any of the times they cheat, you’ll have good things that may soften your anger and not take it out on them
It's also part of their manipulative defense if they get caught. "I've done so much for you. You weren't doing enough for me."
It could be also from sort of guilt, like “I’m cheating on her but hey I got her flowers and these gifts so I can’t be a horrible person”. It’s manipulation and like you said, love bombing.
That’s a super valid and probably factual theory.
yes! in mental healthcare we call it the coping mechanism of “undoing” and “compensating”
i’ve learned to question people that love bomb that way. like what are you trying to prove?
First story reminded me of the guy who always said he girlfriend smelled, she started showering 3-5 times a day, used both deodorant and perfume, brushed and flossed her teeth several times a day. And after all that he kept saying she smelled, remember what happened to her ? She broke down crying, she felt digusting and humiliated. And why did the guy say this ? Because his dad told him to, his father's words were " if you tell them they smell, they will never leave you" so what did OP (the girlfriend) do ? She left, because he abused he so badly that all her selfesteem was gone.
Yes! I remember this hitting hard when I first heard it. I'm a naturally smelly person , Upto 23 I didn't realise I was allergic to aluminium - a common ingredient in deodorant and the more deodorant I used the stronger I stunk. My ex used to tell me I was disgusting, to sort it out, the entire time I was showering constantly, changing my clothes. Anytime I went to the loo, I'd have an armpit wash, deodorant, perfume the lot. Then he'd say I stunk of perfume. He hated any perfume on me, and would say 'why can't you just smell normal?' . The anxiety around smelling was horrendous.
The day I switched to natural deodorant my life was changed forever. One of the 1st things I said to my current partner when I spent the night was 'i'm naturally smelly ' and he was like 'you always smell wonderful to me' There are days I forget and he never says a word- even though I'm dying inside because I can smell myself xxxxx
My ex low key did this to me. My current boyfriend asked me why I'm always worried I smell because I never smell bad. It all clicked like holy fuck.
And what does that have to do with this story lol? Because the guy in that story was lying about his gf smelling bad just to be a controlling abusive a hole. The girl in this story actually did stink.. badly. So I guess I don't get the comparison since that story has literally nothing to do with this one.
@@bailey7792 What i mean with the story is the girl's confidence had taken a serious hit and so the possibilty is very real that OP has now scared her daughter and she could've gone about it differently. If you didn't get that i hope this cleared it up.
yeah but this girl was probably not showering. and coming from someone with depression, you can cover it up with deodorant, perfume, and dry shampoo. but that girl did nothing 🧍♂️
The fact that K from story 2 said he would talk Ellie into terminating her pregnancy also extremely problematic who does he think he is to coerce someone into a decision like that????? No wonder OP felt disgusted by him after that
RIGHT i was reeling at that part! as if his happiness is more important than a mother's choice to keep her baby. he thinks he deserves to have his cake and eat it too, no matter who he hurts, and everyone else has to bend over backwards to create this weird alternate universe where it's ok to knock someone else up when you're in a relationship? the audacity! 😵💫
The cops needed to be called the second time he showed up at her parents house. Have him trespassed this is stocker behaviour. 100’s of calls, showing up multiple times on private property. This guy could be dangerous
Yeah that one was so disgusting!
It says so much about him that he 1. Would be willing to do that to another person, 2. Thinks that admitting that he'd do that would be something his gf would appreciate and 3. Is so sure that his powers of convincing are so great he could talk a pregnant woman, who's against terminations, into terminating. That just tells you how manipulative he really is and that he'll go to any length to get his way.
For this first story I can offer a little insight from experience. My brother is on the spectrum and when he hit puberty his hygiene was HORRIBLE. So, my parents basically badgered him into showering everyday and taking care of himself. It wasn’t soft but not harsh either it was…finish your breakfast and take a shower and it’s 10am go take a shower now! He got so fed up with us being on his butt that he did it himself at different times throughout the day and now it’s a part of his daily routine. I don’t think embarrassment at school was worth it, guilt and embarrassment at home works very well too.
Yeah, same worked fine for both my cousin and my best friend. No need for making school harder than it already is, especially if you're on the spectrum.
I agree. Period undies are the best invention for my ASD teens.
I 100% agree and even if you don’t have any disabilities and your just lazy that is how I can be when it comes to brushing my teeth I wish my parents would do that
@@amycate121as an asd teen, taking the pill saved my life, the sensory issues on my period were so bad, I hated myself and cried bc of how bad bleeding and cramps were, now I don’t have my period anymore bc I take a pill
@@Lenalemonss thank you for sharing your experience. Something we have talked about and considered. At the end of the day it is their decision.
Alejandra was mixing “defrost” and “thaw”.
I chuckled listening to her. A lot of people mix the two and it’s pretty funny!😂
I have an aunt who says unthaw and won't change lol. We all pick on her 😂 her kids are ruthless about it
So Ellie was trying to get with him all along? The audacity to show up at her house when she's the mistress and admit she's "pregnant". She tried to baby trap him and failed. Also why on the security camera was he throwing things and showing violent behaviours? This was actually a blessing to this girl, he showed his true colours before it was to late.
I LAUGHED when she was like “you’re the reason he cut me off now” biiiiiiiiiiiiitch get out, she’s just mad that she went through all that trouble and nobody won.
morgan using “perioded” as a verb is so good i love u morg
Love youuu ❤😂
Morgan your so good at podcast I love u AHHHH
Story 4 was way too wild and I so agree with Alejandra - the cousin is full on an asshole for doing what she did but the fiancé showed his true colors. It’s tragic that she had a shit holiday in addition to learning how crap her fiancé was to act that way.
I LOVE the discussions y’all get to ❣️
If those discount cards were a sort of relationship/trust test, every male in-law/boyfriend failed except the guy who told his wife 😂 congrats to that one cousin for having a loyal and communicative partner 😂😂
with anna giving out her discount code to her OF, it’s 100% sexual. the way she only gave it to her families boyfriends/husbands, not her family, not her brother’s gay husband, and not even to the wives/girlfriends of the family. i remember reading that story while i was sitting at my boyfriend’s house and literally getting a visceral reaction. she needs to cut off her fiancé and stop talking to her cousin. WIIIIILD
Yes, this! Ditch the fiance and never, ever speak to the cousin again.
I hated how the hosts were trynna be like thank her for what she did this isnt the time or place 😭
Im autistic so for the first story my blood was BOILING!!! that poor girl :(
i’d just like to let y’all know that in the autistic community we don’t use “high functioning” or “low functioning” and rather use high or low “support needs”
I’d be glad if they chose OT over ABA (since ABA is essentially conversion therapy) and i’m glad the mom realized her wrongs and is going to fix it. that’s like the best outcome to a poor situation.
Thanks for the information on high/low functioning. English is not my first language, so I had no idea it had changed. I prefer the "higher support needs" over "low functioning" though. I hope similar changes will happen in my mother tongue.
Thanks for sharing. Another thing my OT education pounded into me so great to have language that’s actually desired ❤

PICK ONE.
with the first story i feel like the simple, sensory friendly solution is just to get her thinx underwear or the ones in that style from aerie, i have adhd and forget to change out what ever i’m using a lot of the time so those underwear have been really helpful. strongly recommend
edit: after doing some research i’ve learned that Thinx and some other brands of period underwear contain PFAS which can cause a lot of negative health affects so before buying do your research on the brand’s reliability and if anyone can find out if aerie also have PFAS let me know bc i couldn’t find anything
Looking for this comment. Yep. Period underwear.
Thinx period underwear just lost a huge legal case as they are not, in fact, safe for use.
@@emerson1998 see edit
hey! i have adhd also and have started using modi bodi period underwear and had have no issues! they also have more traditionally “masculine” style underwear which is great for trans inclusivity! overall 10/10, but not sure what shipping is like (i’m in UK so wasn’t too expensive)
@@maisysinclair thank u!!
The "Reasons not to have a baby" list on TikTok literally saved me so many arguments with family members about why I don't want kids!
I don’t think the mom was wrong, it’s a natural consequence and at 14 they should know what’s going to trigger them and at least try to remedy it. And the fact that afterwards they were able to keep themselves decent shows it could have been done the whole time.
i understand why you say that, but that 14 year old girl is on the autism spectrum, her mind is not the same as neurotypical individuals. that poor girl is going to be upset and traumatized for a very long time. the mom had good intentions but carried them out in a horribly wrong way.
As an autistic person who struggles with hygiene, especially when I was that age, this was just so incredibly cruel. That poor girl…
She had to learn. At least she learned a life lesson. Bathe!
I can’t imagine doing that to your kid, there must be a way to teach them without putting them through a traumatic experience.
@@afrodite1634 there are a thousand other ways. I’m finding stuff that works for me, but it’s not as simple as “take a shower”
As another autistic person who has trouble with basic hygiene…Yea. What the hell?
@@afrodite1634 nice ableism dude
Story 2: honestly I learned from a while back that the person cheating on you 9/10 they hate themselves. Dude is going to school with no debt, from a wealthy family, had a woman that loved him with her whole heart and still he decided to blow his whole life up. Idk that’s so pathetic and sad to me and obviously it’s still hurts to be cheated on but when you put that mindset to it. It’s like you don’t even feel sad for yourself anymore cus you know your gonna be fine at the end of the day but this man could have had everything now he gonna be searching for anything 🤦🏾♀️… but idk maybe it’s just me that thinks like that. I been though some bs lol
About the OnlyFans marketing, I know someone who just started hers, made business cards, and asked her male friends to leave a bunch in the male bathroom at bars. Anyone that flirts with her, gets a card. That's the only way she has marketed so far and has a decent following.
Hey good for her! Work smarter not harder
This first story makes me want to bawl. I'm a momma of a 9 year old on the spectrum- it's our job to protect these kids. She purposely made her child a target. Absolutely heartbreaking
I agree! I also have 2 daughters (6 & 8 yrs old) I could never intentionally allow either of them to be bullied! Especially about such a sensitive subject!! So glad OP learned her lesson & is actively helping her daughter be able to do the same.
I see your point,but after everything the mum tried...what was she supposed to do? The kid would've never learnt.
Hey momma, you're a rock star for taking care of & advocating for your little one ❤
I'm a caregiver (with a few clients on the spectrum) & I would like to add yes always protect your child, but it is also your job to teach your child important & valuable life lessons
I see it a lot when parents prioritize sheltering their child over allowing them to have experiences, make mistakes & learn. Which ultimately ends up holding them back & it's painful to see. I've met lots of individuals with varying disabilities functioning at a level much lower than they are capable of from being sheltered this way & which stunts their development. Parents are often blind to it because they are just happy the child is safe. But the reality is they've limited their child's quality of life. & what happens if one day, they are no longer around? A child who would one day be capable of living an independent & fulfilling life could instead end up in a home with strangers put in charge of their well being. & Unfortunately many in the nursing industry do NOT have the best interest of their patients in mind. I've sadly seen it many times & reports of abuse often get thrown out because of how under staffed these facilities typically are.
Unfortunately this momma found herself in a tough spot between protecting her daughter by doing all the work & clean up for her VS teaching her the importance of basic hygiene through a tough love life lesson. Unable to find the middle ground
If were her, I would still offer help to get cleaned up & give lots of reminders, but ultimately make it clear her personal hygiene is her responsibility & work towards getting her to a place of as much independence she is capable of.
Ie whenever she's messy or smelly point it out & remind her that means it's time to shower & asks if she would like some help. Set up a simple reward system. Give lots of praise. Communicate with the school nurse & her teachers to also inforce these things at school. Remind her to pack a change of clothes & toiletries but also give a backup set of clothes to the school nurse & an extra precaution. (Getting the school staff involved would also add that social aspect of why hygiene is important as apposed to it coming in the form of bullying from her peers)
Parents of disabled children don't get enough credit for doing their best, making mistakes learning through trial & error, & for when they experience burn out.
My heart goes out to both the mother & daughter in this story. I hope the daughter is thriving & mom & dad both getting more educated everyday
Story 5 makes me think that maybe the guy is having an affair, and that's why he keeps missing the scans. Men have audacity, but missing every single scan for something as small as football or fish and chips? That you can get out of, but having an empty house for an hour? Perfect opportunity to bring someone over
The only fans story is INSANE!!!!!! What made the cousin think that that was a normal idea???!
Unrelated to the stories, but is Morgan wearing a T-shirt with Drew Afualo’s face on it? That’s friendship goals! ❤️👏🏻
I was wondering the same! I was like wait is that drew?!?!?
omg i didn't even notice 😂 love iittt !!!! 💗
Yes it is! It’s a collab with chnge and I think profits went to an org - Gender Justice (if im remembering correctly)
The story of the girl walking on bf hits deep, when I got cheated on I didn’t walk in but hear it on our security cameras…. My heart shattered, I’m still trying to pick up the pieces…. This has been the tough 4 months I can remember
I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you. Take all the time you need to heal, the betrayal is intense. Setting boundaries is a good way to get back control and self worth. But you do whatever you need to get back to being you. You didn't deserve it.
I'm so sorry this happened to you. I have also been on the receiving end of cheating, but I never discovered him in the act. I can only imagine how traumatic that must be, and your trauma is valid! It's a horrible, horrible thing to experience and it hurts the heart so much to have a loved one betray you so deeply. Stay strong and don't let him manipulate you into staying with him because it is very rare that cheating is an isolated incident!
Im sorry this happened ❤
Alejandra : “ Id have to break up with them, I couldn’t fake laugh in my own home” hahahaaaa I love her
As a pregnant person with an autistic husband who also walked in on my ex husband cheating on me previously, this episode had me SCREAMING at the TV so many times 😂
The doctor’s appointment one is a great reminder to be careful who you have kids with.
Exactly, your kids cannot pick their father but you can!
FOR REAL!!! People need to discuss having kids and be completely honest cause not everyone wants kids
@@wv9459 that and most of these lazy patterns are present before the child comes into the picture. A baby will not make someone do anything.
On the missing the Dr. Appt story, it’s reminding me of the one story where the boyfriend abandoned his partner at the hospital after appendicitis for a World Cup match, then his family harassed her at Christmas but they where engaged at this point and expecting… same guy?
OMG yea! I remember that. She had a similar story where he wasn't supporting her after too, like obviously, and reddit just collectively gave up and then the girl ended up DEFENDING their marriage.
I thought the same thing! Especially after she mentioned soccer games and fish and chips since in that story her husband was English.
Story 3: I’m a mom who’s adopted my children. Each child has a different style of adoption with completely different bio family stories. With one child we have an open adoption and we are very secure in our position of being the parents, but I can tell you that if I had a brother or brother-in-law make these jokes I would be very upset. Jokes like this would make my kids feel on the outside of the family, would make them feel less than. And depending on where I was in my infertility journey and healing this would hinder my ability to move forward. Definitely the AH
my clinical psych professor in undergrad said "everything happens for a reason, we just might never find out the reason" and i was like omg...tea
As someone who's autistic hygen can be hard. For me its the transition, getting in the shower isn't that bad, but getting out is awful because I hate being wet and cold and I hate having wet hair. Sometimes its also just a matter of legitimately forgetting.
I'd also like to add that the terms "high functioning" and "low functioning" are generally avoided within the community because it implies that some people are "more" autistic than others when we're all just autistic. I'd recommend looking into the support needs model.
Nta 1 story
Why is it only during the periods that she doesn't maintain them self ? Also what does everyone think was gonna happen while the kid is at school. She allowed her kid to make her own choice to wear white pants and even if she had her kid change what about once the kid is at school and had bleeding or the odor issue. Should the parent Scrub her child herself? Like shit happens and depending on when the periods started op has been going through this battle for years! But I agree there is no mention of pads or free bleeding or even past examples of what the mom has done other than clean the mess and she could have had the dad start doing the clean up stuff since he SEEM from op post that he doesn't see an issue that badly.
Okay now with the update kid was free bleeding no way in hell that kid is not standing her free bleeding all over every seat no pant change would have stopped the billing also kid is activly in therapy, and has an active doctor, nothing this parent did would have changed the outcome THAT DAY man so many back seat parents on here.
It's so nice listening to your podcasts while I draw. It's like hanging out with friends and listening to them talk and it makes me less lonely
Omg i do the same thing when I paint
I listen when I clean. Helps my mind focus.
I'm neurodivergent. Mom is the ahole. 10000% you will not change my mind. Do you know how awful it is to have all your actions motivated by fear?
Mom and/or dad aren't doing what they need to to set their child up for success. I mean here Mom set her up for failure, but I'm talking before this, they were not putting enough effort in to raising the child they have. Like they're probably regularly putting in the effort to raise a NT kid, but not their ND one. They probably put her in ABA too, or would have had it been an option.
Also just a heads up, a lot of the community does not like functioning labels like high or low functioning.
Sorry, but as someone that is also “neurodivergent”, I fully disagree. If she’s capable of taking care of her own hygiene, like the story clearly states after she learned a lesson, she’s just stubborn. The mother said she actively fought, and it makes the community look bad. People already think autism is either black or grey; this only makes it worse. And also, just say autistic. Are you ashamed of it, so you instead have to prep it up with the scientific reference? Also, YES. There is a huge difference between someone who is throwing poop at you (personal experience with a kid) and somebody who can drive a car and function normally within a society. I don’t give a damn about “labeling autism”. Sometimes it’s important. God damn, it’s like nobody understands that autism is legitimately different for everyone. Now, we don’t know what range of the spectrum she falls on, and I could be overlooking certain sensory issues. But this to me, at least how the mother told it, seems like defiance. Some people just need to be called people and be held accountable. People damn, we are people. We’re not.. aliens.
I disagree that the cousin shouldn’t take any blame. Women are more emotionally (and I think logically) intelligent. She knew exactly what she was doing and completely disrespecting her cousins AND their relationships. To their faces.
weird thing to say-women are not more intelligent.
I recognize that it's a parasocial relationship, but it truly feels like getting to hang with my friends whenever you post 🥲
RIGHT
SAME 🥺
Literally same haahhhah
Girl i relate, im normally sat on my sofa with a blanket and wine too so i fully feel im sat with them
@@notthingofnote it's usually a packed bowl for me, but we're all having a good time 😁
The story about her boyfriend sleeping with their friend… wow. My heart breaks for her. That’s an ultimate betrayal. I especially can’t imagine walking in on that. Some people are trying disgusting.
For story 4: you can be mad at the cousin 😂 idgaf, I’m mad at both of them. Tf is my cousin giving my man her only fans promo code like tf is wrong with her. Be VERY mad at your man but you can be mad at your cousin
Ew ew ew
I can NOT stand cheaters. Poor girl didn’t deserve that humiliation. He knew exactly what he was doing.
As soon as I open the app I see the new episode!!! Having a rough start to the year but I can always count on Morgan and everyone on THT to make my day :)
Going through catching my boyfriend cheating because of “hey girl” texts it was a lot easier to end up forgiving him. One day though I caught him cheating with my own eyes and something just snapped where it felt like any ties or resemblance of love that was left was gone and cut off I just packed everything and left blocking him on everything. I thought maybe giving the benefit of the doubt would make things ok after the first time but at that point I was just gaslighting myself into staying. Moral of the story trust your guts and don’t give second chances with that sort of stuff it doesn’t matter how loving you are. :/
There is a comment on the 4th story that I love and just had to share on here and it this "Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house the silence was broken by clicks of the mouse. The page was up on the family living room TV it was our beloved cousin and her large titties, come dancer come prancer come donner and blitzen, All the male relatives were eyeing the only fans vixen. The gift may have been a tad uncouth but so was blasting the ASMR audio through Alexa's Bluetooth. Let us remember in good kindness and cheer not to invite Cousin Anna to Christmas next year"
Alejandro’s gasp and then “No…I’ve heard enough!” While Morgan continues with the audacity of this man in the “well I’m not pregnant” story💀💀💀💀
For story 1 maybe she could look into other period products like period underwear? something that might be more comfortable for her daughter. I have an autistic brother who struggles with hygiene so we’ve found products he’s comfortable with and ones he likes.
The Mom’s update about her daughter’s discomfort wearing pads/tampons literally made me cry. Sure, she realized what she did was wrong, but once her daughter shared her discomfort she should’ve reached out to her doctor and found a way to help her. She didn’t take care of herself because she was actually physically uncomfortable, she needed help and her person she could go to for womanly help and advice, turned her out to the wolves to be dinner. How heartbreaking.
I feel for the mama tbh. She got burnt out & made a hard switch from doing all the hygiene & clean up for her to "f*ck around & find out" & "bet you won't do that again"
She seemed at such a loss for what to do to help her daughter & from the sounds of it the father wasn't helping much
Parents of children with disabilities don't get enough grace.
I'm a caregiver & burn out is extremely common for us workers but 10× more for the parents who don't get to clock out at the end of the day like i do, didn't sign up to work with disabilities like I did, and didn't receive all the training & information in advance like I got. &on top of that, the state makes them jump through so many over complicated & sometimes impossible hurdles in order to get any sort of help.
My heart goes out to both mama & daughter. I hope the both parents have been able to obtain more information & support and their daughter thriving
Y’all are more mature than me if cousin does me like that I’m whooping her ass then my fiancées.
Only fans on Christmas story: if her intent was just marketing, why not give to the female relatives to give out? Or advertise? Why only the hetero- non blood related males? Very clear her intent was a bit less innocent then she claims.
she was clearly making good financial decisions lol
I’m autistic and really struggled with hygiene as a kid. Still do, but it was especially traumatic during puberty. Autistic people experience things differently and we are very susceptible to developing trauma from experiences others might consider no big deal. If my mom did what OP did to her daughter, I would never trust her again. It is already so hard to keep up with the social standards of everyone else, the last thing that poor girl needs is to be bullied and shamed by her own mother. My mom telling me people will think I’m gross if I didn’t have better hygiene didn’t help me, it just made me feel more like a freak that was bad at being a person. Instead, address WHY she’s not managing her hygiene. If my mom had just asked I would’ve broke down crying about how hard it is to gather the energy to take care of my body, and when I did it was incredibly distressing and even painful (like brushing my hair). I just needed help, not shame.
Also a note for Morgan: most autistic people find functioning labels really offensive. Not all, but it is something to be mindful of.
My thoughts on the first story, and I haven't even finished it yet, are, a, proper parenting and how they mother/parents handled period talk and talk about puberty, hygiene etc, if it isn't spoken about or practiced regularly, how is a kid supposed to know. My second thought is therapy. what is the underlying reason of not wanting to practice proper hygiene or feeling unable to. not to do something humiliating, unsupportive, and unhygenic to your young child in a difficult, strange part of life
What gets me is that in the update she even says the kid had a therapist on deck so she had that resource and didn’t take it, and then intentionally set her kid up to be humiliated
@@britnicox3929 sad that so many kids have to go without proper support systems growing up
Story 4 That cousin should be barred from family function for a few YEARS. That is so evil and disgusting. And yeah OP should leave her fiance. He was about to basically commit inlaw incest.
People even thinking of their family as potential customers is so wack like bro that’s usually people’s worst fear
Not even 8 minutes in and I’m bawling. Screaming at my phone “SHES FKN AUTISTIC!” I hope this story gets better but I might have to wait for the rest of this episode if they’re all this upsetting :(
That story does have an update that gives us a bit of hope. Tragic story but mom realizes her mistake 😢
@@TwoHotTakes thanks for the reply! I’m glad I continued the episode once I calmed down ❤ I never skip episodes sometimes I just have to wait til I’m in a better headspace.
The Fiancé getting the Only Fans discount Gift had me 😂 I Wonder what He was thinking when He got it, then what he was thinking when he found out she was handing them out around to the other Family Partners. That’s is weird as haha and I find it so funny someone could receive that ✨gift✨ and then be like “Ooo I better hide this one 🤭 hehe” bloody Weirdo and the cousin is right off too for her gift idea haha holey crap 🤣🤣
I have never said OHHHHH SHI- so loud in my life at the Ellie is pregnant part 😅
I want to be friends with K’s ex. She is so freaking STRONG and level headed… if she comes here just know we got you girl, so proud of you.
That first story pissed me off. As a thirty year old autistic person who has periods I have struggled for years with hygiene during periods. I recently discovered period panties and it has made such a difference. There are ways to accommodate the sensory nightmares
Out of curiosity, as someone who's experienced similar struggles to the daughter, what would you recommend a mother in her position should do instead?
I agree she did not handle it properly, but she also seemed incredibly burnt out & at a loss for what to do. Unfortunately lot of parents don't get much help or information
Hopefully you're perspective & insight could help others from making the same mistake(s)
My daughter (10 at the time) with ass once wanted to walk in her flipflops while we were going to walk into town which would be 5k to and 5k back. It wasn't the first time we did that and I told her to put on her sandals. She was adamant about it and I told her we wouldn't be able to carry her and it would be on her when it would undoubtedly start to hurt. My mother was extremely upset with me when my daughter started to complain of sore feet, but I know my daughter, she won't listen to good advice until she experiences it for herself. She never went on 10k walks again on flipflops and we never had an argument about it ever again. To cut a long story short, some children won't listen because they need the experience to learn, they aren't dumb, they learn differently. My daughter is currently in college going for her bachelor's.
Story 5: She is definitely gonna be a married single mother and I mean that as in, she is gonna be the sole caretaker of their child and her husband is most likely only going to be involved when it’s convenient to him. He’s not gonna get up for the midnight feedings or diaper changes, he’s probably gonna use weaponized incompetence to get out of basic childcare, sure he may take them to the park or to get ice cream and be the “fun” parent, but when shit hits the fan, he’s gonna leave that all to her. This is all, of course, an assumption, but the type of man who would say, “Im not the one carrying the baby” is definitely not the kind of man who’s gonna be involved when it matters most.
Alejandra is too funny 😂 “no 🙅♀️… I’ve heard enough” 1:21:03
There are period pants that you don't need to have a pad or tampon. The blood soaks in like a pad. There are light, medium, and heavy flow pants. They are great for anyone, especially children.
I had to go to my anatomy scan alone because Rona. I was told I had a rare placenta tumor that baby likely couldn't survive, baby appeared to have a very bad heart defect, and his kidneys looked off but that was probably because the heart. I then had to get in the car where my husband had my 3y/o, 2y/o, and infant waiting, and I had to somehow tell him.
I'm sorry this happened to you.
I’m so sorry you had to receive that news alone
“Relax it’s just a joke…” yes but your not funny that’s the issue. He deserved to be kicked out… what a strange “joke”. It’s one thing if someone told a funny offensive joke (NOT about a child or adopted child… jeeesum😳) and got kicked out but that was a good reason to kick someone out of a family dinner for sure! He absolutely needs to know how to read a room and maybe just give up on the jokes cause he just doesn’t have it.
Absolutely! OP is delusional for thinking they did nothing wrong. “Check your husband!!😂🫣”
Thaw- “unfreeze”
Unthaw- freeze
Lol
Love y’all 😂❤
I 100% agree with their take on story 1. It is up to the parents to teach their daughter how to have good hygiene and up to them and her team (therapists, teachers etc) to figure out what works best for her and what the problems are and how to fix them. Autism is hard enough on someone (I have a daughter with severe Autism) and her home and her family is where and with who she should feel the safest and most protected. Shame on this mother for putting her through that instead of finding a better way.
I knew a family that had 3 adopted kids and one of the bio parents of the kid tried taking him back. If anyone made a joke during or after they fought to keep him with his family, the 'jokester' would be more than kicked out. Ethan did the right thing even if Joey's bio parents aren't in the picture but if they are it's going to helurt even more
In the first story y'all mentioned you shouldn't be grossed out by the idea of period blood. While I agree I didn't agree with the part that you were saying not to be grossed out by the blood on a chair. It's still blood and if blood grosses you out, that's okay, it's the same as if you had a nose bleed and it got on the chair. You can be grossed out by the idea of period blood while also being okay with periods cause I've meet girls who hate blood but put up with it for a period but still worry about getting blood on their hand cause they hate blood. It's not cause it was period blood, it's cause it's blood
Story 4- I disagree with the bit where they say the cousin isn’t at fault for the relationship(s) failing. I wouldn’t give her the full blame but she played a part. It’s one thing to a side girl unaware but to go out of your way to make a discount code, print it on pink paper and put in an envelope is doing it complete awareness. Yes she’s not a side girl, but being self aware is still the there which is the whole point. Who does that? what was the ultimate goal there? There more motive to it in my opinion. Maybe she needed new partners for her videos and this was her way in to let them know of her career and hoping they’d made the move she wanted to do.
or she just wanted the coin…
@@diya-hn2wy you still want the coin and have ulterior motives. Hella weird to go after married/taken people to build your platform, especially family.
But she’s also a grown woman with the ability to stop and think “huh, will this gift cause issues in the family??”
Anna just tactical nuked that Christmas. All the dudes were salivating to check out that only fans.
Unthaw is freezing something lol thawing would be making something frozen room temperature
my brother has FAS and he’s 19 and my parents have to remind him everyday to put on deodorant, take a shower. And he HATES brushing his teeth it always ends up in a fight. This is just my brother but i’ve seen other people with disabilities struggle with hygiene too.
It’s infuriating how many dad’s skip the important appointments during pregnancy. My husband couldn’t attend any of my appointments with our first due to Covid restrictions. With our second, I always tried to schedule the big appointments during his days off and whenever it wasn’t possible, he would take the day off and go with me. That poor lady has to deal with all of that alone. I remember how nervous and anxious I felt during my first pregnancy knowing that if I got any bad news, I would be alone to take that in.
The adoption one is literally so gross. I’ve been fostering my nephew for going on two years and have been fighting so hard to get it pushed to adoption and hopefully that’s coming to close this year. If anyone sat and joked about my nephews bio parents coming to the door I’d flip. His mom has shown up at our house, broken into our cars. Like it’s scary and not fun to go through all of that and though they just adopted you have no idea where bio parents come from and what type of behaviors they have. Terrible way to joke with those parents.
story 4: wdym know your audience? she does know her audience, married men are often unfaithful or don't consider looking through OF cheating lol
one could even say the cousin weeded out the weak men of the family, the OPs fiance, and the husband who already tried it...
I got my FIRST period in bluejeans in school. The popular girls went to the vp and had me called down in front of the whole class while giggling. My mom hadn't even taught me about my period yet (think I was 9), so I was scared and sobbing. the nurse helped and was kind. but they sent me back to class in the same jeans. My friend lent me a sweater and said it happens to the best of us. I'm 27 now and still can feel how mortified I was. I feel so sorry for the girl.
My depression makes it so hard to brush my teeth/hair and showering is almost impossible. Idk if I have autism, I've never been tested, but I can imagine that it is even harder to keep that train of thought
As someone who suffers from heavy periods, I know how hard it is to avoid bleeding through some days and I'm not on the spectrum as far as I know. Kids can be cruel. When I was in high school I would at least look out for other girls, if I noticed the bleeding I would at least say something and see if we could find something for her to change into or put over her clothes but not teens or kids care, they just want to fit in and make jokes. I can't imagine purposely doing that to a teen. I'm happy the mother at least learn from this experience.
I used to suffer from heavy periods, my saviors have been birth control and menstrual cups. Even with just the menstrual cups they kept me from bleeding through.
@Its Steph same I took that during my junior and senior year and most of the beginning of my adult life but I stopped a few years ago to attempt getting pregnant.
Edit: for birth control, I don't use the cups.
Am I losing my mind? Didn’t you read the Only Fans holiday story on another podcast? I don’t watch anyone else who reads Reddit stories and I remember you reading it, because I told my husband about it when we were shopping lmao please tell me I’m not the only one
I think it’s trashy and rude to give your OF to your families spouses and partners. It’s not meant to protect them or else she would have given the women a heads up to see if they wanted this test done. Instead, it was to line her pocket book. Not an act of love from her.
Exactly! She did it for more loyal subscribers 🤢
I've heard the first story in several different shapes, all including period blood, social punishments and elaborating on how unclean the teen was - to the point is was unnecessarily detailed. Almost like the post itself was another shaming the autistic attempt. Even if the story ending with the mother "understanding she did something wrong". Idk but something feels OFF about it. Would keep it in mind if ya read another version really similar, but different enough to be another story.
I have a 14 y/o boy on the spectrum and getting him to shower, brush his teeth, put on deodorant is like pulling teeth. He will even take a shower without using soap and I won’t notice until his hair dries that it’s still very greasy. Hearing this made me feel like it’s not a him problem and probably just the touch of the Tism. ❤❤❤❤** edit after listening further I’m glad she leaned but that was so beyond out of pocket. But even making these rapid changes will take time to repair what she did.
As an autistic person I can solidly say it’s not just him. 14 year old boys in general struggle with hygiene and adding being autistic on top of that makes it all the more difficult. OT might really help him with this, but if that’s not an option I’d suggest trying to create a space where he feels safe to talk about WHY he’s struggling with it. Hygiene practices are a sensory nightmare for a lot of autistic people. For me, the changes in temperature, the feeling of all the different soaps, the scrubbing, the smells, etc. are often way too much to handle, even as an adult. It’ll take time, especially with a teen that doesn’t want to listen. But with patience , accommodations, and empathy, he’ll get there.
On days I can’t shower thoroughly I use baby wipes and have someone help me wash my hair in the sink or use dry shampoo. I use a spray deodorant instead of a stick so there’s less residue on my skin. There’s always a way to make it work ❤️
Had an autistic brother who was the exact same way at 14
Definitely not just him ❤ My sister is on the spectrum and still struggles with showers at age 23. Luckily my mom worked in special Ed, worked closely with OTs, and knew to find alternatives. The solution in her case was to “dry shower” with baby wipes, apply deodorant, and change into fresh undies and clothes daily, in between full showers. Sis still does that to this day and very rarely needs to be gently nudged to shower due to any kind of odor or greasy hair. I struggle with mental illness so sometimes I struggle with showers too and employ the same method when that’s the case. I have a cousin on the spectrum who can ONLY take baths, no showers. Have patience and seek out an OT if you’re unable to help him find a sustainable solution ❤
@@blythe9631 thanks for the advice and tips. I’ve learned with him not making him use a washcloth or a scrubbie has made a difference. That and reminding him every time he showers to use soap. When he picks up after himself and makes sure he takes care of himself he gets to play on his Switch. With consistency that seems to have improved over time. Nothing is a quick fix with us, we just adapt and learn what does and doesn’t work for him. Which can be challenging because that changes. We have a great support team and are always working to help him be the most successful and independent we can ❤️
I know I can NOT be loyal. I know I have commitment issues and I make sure I make that super clear whenever I meet people that I’m just here to have fun not have anything that’s necessarily serious. Because that’s not fair to them. If I lie and get myself into a situation I’m not unhappy with. Like y’all. if you can’t commit JUST DONT DATE. stop playing with peoples emotions because of your lack of self control.
The fact that the couple in the cheating story were financially well off plays a big unspoken part in this story. The boyfriend buys her things to ease the guilt of cheating. More importantly, he keeps making "offers" to try to win her back. He thinks the relationship is a transaction that be negotiated. He does not realize that once the emotional damage is done, nothing can buy her back.
1:24:02 - fun fact, there is a difference between "fries" and "chips" and it's all to do with the cut of the potato. Thin cuts are fries whereas thick cuts are chips.
if my cousin did that , idc i'm throwing hands fr & id never speak to her again
Oh my god the onlyfans story THE AUDACITY 😵💫😫😳😳😳😳😂😂
That first story makes me so sad. I couldn’t imagine allowing my daughter to go to school knowing she would get bullied or made fun of…. I never want my daughter to have to experience this cruel world. She will forever hear what those kids said in her brain, she will be 30 and still think about it. I know it is fustrating but keep being a parent and protect and teach your child.
as an autistic girl, who had bad hygiene around the same age, honestly, that was definitely needed.
I struggled with brushing my hair for most of my life due to my mom never being gentle with my very sensitive scalp (due to chemical use for lice) so I associated hair brushing with pain and discomfort. So I'd never brush my hair, till 8th grade we were getting all the knots out and this was a pretty much yearly to every few months kind of thing. So my mom was threatening to shave my head as she always did so I said, okay shave it, because I was in so much pain from brushing the giant clumps from my hair so that's what she did. 4 years later I have had little to no problems brushing my hair now in fact I treasure my hair more than ever and it's one of the things I struggle with the least. Tbh I blame my mom for it getting to that point since she was extremely cruel towards me, and we didn't know about my autism so there was never any realization that I might just need things done differently.
But the way this mom handled it was great, sometimes it takes being embarrassed to learn something, and it's not like she was happy that her kid got bullied for that. Being autistic doesn't make you def, her mom told her what would happen and she didn't listen and now she knows and is doing better. Sometimes you just have to learn that hard way as an autistic person to be able to break habits.
Also picking her clothes out could be contributing to the problem like she could just not know self care because she is being taken care of so helping her be more independent is definitely a good idea from the post the daughter sounds pretty high functioning so idt it'd be a problem for her to be learning to be independent especially because shes getting close to adult hood and somethings will be harder for her to get the hang of.
Someone needs to tell the mother from the first story about menstrual cups, honey pot co pads (still cotton but different more comfortable feeling), reusable pads, reusable panties, there’s so many options other than the regular pads and tampons.
My dad wasn't present when I was born because he "got hungry and was bored" so he went to McDonald's 🙃
My best friend and i are huge fans and it be great if you guys would come to El Paso ! Can’t wait to see the podcast grow more and more ! Love you guys
❤
For the first story….. WHY DIDNT THE SCHOOL SEND HER HOME!?! 😮
I asked my boyfriend what would he do in this situation (about the cousins Christmas gift) and he said that he would tell me after we left to not cause drama or ruin Christmas. Which I could respect because I would have definitely shut down the party.
Story 4: the fact that she was only giving it to guys is basically her telling on herself.
Also to Morgan’s story about the sending people sweaty panties and p*ssy pops; sounds like an easy yeast infection or something like that. Ick.
the first story is so cruel honestly i had extremely bad social anxiety when i first got my period and i had harsh teachers i was so afraid to ask to use the restroom i had a few accidents and it was humiliating. i would never be able to forgive my parents if they knew i had a hard time with something and set me up to be bullied and humiliated for that very thing. there had to be a better way to teach her the consequences of her actions ya know
Same! I remember once asking a teacher to go the loo and she said no. I was so uncomfortable, I sat through the majority of the class holding back tears because I knew I was leaking- she asked me to come to her and I shuffled to the door- she goes 'do you need to change?' and I was so embarrassed but also so grateful.
I'm a teacher now and anytime a girl goes 'Miss I NEED the toilet!!' I give them my lanyard and ask if they need anything - I keep a drawer in my cupboard with pads, tampons and wipes. I let them know - help yourself. Anytime. I don't care. Xxxxx
@@cheekofeather6310 that’s very kind, i would’ve loved to have a teacher like you!!
The beginning bit is so true, the covid part. I was like 20-21? When covid started, now I'm almost halfway through my 20's (I have a few years until I'm 25...well 🙄 a year...). Where did the time go? I feel so young and so ancient at the same time. I feel like I've missed out on everything 🥺.
1:14:00 Milk baths are so cool. I love that shit...then again don't they cause nasty UTIs?
