Polls: Family & Friends

If U were financially, emotional and physical ready for a child then choose how many u want?

Just wondering because I've always trusted my Imaginary Friends (Steve and Bob) a lot more than even my Best Friends.

Feel free to post opinion of the women you consider the most beautiful.

I personally don’t see anything wrong them but I prefer to be the breadwinner of the family. The only way I could be a stay at home dad is if I have a disability and my wife is willing to take on the role of the “breadwinner”.

For guys: Would you put your Bros above the Hoes*?

For girls: Would you put your Sisters (or Bros if guy friends are your thing) above Manhoes*?

* your partner would want you to break off with your bros/sistas.

Growing up, my dad was a doctor and he treated nudity as pretty much another day at the office. So seeing my brothers or sister naked was not uncommon. (Though not my mom, and only my dad if we happened to be at the gym or a public swimming pool locker room together.)

My girlfriend grew up in a more conservative home - two sisters - and she says she saw one of her sisters naked maybe once in her whole life until my girlfriend moved out.

My girlfriend and I have lived together for ten years and have three children and we seem to be right in the middle with a tilt toward the way my family was. As my kids get older, I generally tend to assume that we will be more like my family, though I certainly would not demand that.

Anyhow, I just want to see how we stack up to other families.

Why does one type of girl have mostly guy friends, another type of girl has mostly girl friends? Same with guys, why does one guy get along with mostly girls, and another type of guy hangs out with only guys? Sure there is a type of both genders that can get along with both genders with no difference. But I've had a girl admit to me she only likes hanging out with guys, and I know I do better hanging out with girls. What I think it is, is that it matters if the person is an attractive person or not, I feel like people like to be surrounded by people who like them. If a guy or girl is attractive then the same gender will not want to hang out with them if they felt like they were less attractive, and cause them to have self esteem issues. Maybe the attractive person has self esteem issues and only likes the gender they are attracted to. Obviously one person isn't friends with only the oppisite gender. Like one attractive girl will have a girl friend, but the MAJORITY of their friends are the oppisite sex. Also attraction isn't just physical, they maybe attracted to their personality or worth?
here's the main question, do some type of people surround themselves with the oppisite gender for a reason or purposely? And why do you suppose that is? If you are one of those people, feel free to tell us why, theirs no shame in it. I dont think its being shallow, I dont think its wrong, its just what we do naturally because it works.

My sister came over yesterday and started talking to me about college, she was ttelling me about how she could help me get into her college after I got my diploma

Anyways she was talking to me about the college lifestyle

She told me how girls would be all over me
(lie)
How they'd wanna have sex with me
(lie)
Then she said
"I've seen your nudes, they're going to be all over you"
(lie)

Why does she claim to have seen my nudes?
She's lying, but it makes me uncomfortable

I told her I didn't take nudes so there was no way she had mine
She just kept insisting she's seen my dick
Thats impossible..
For her to have seen my nudes she would've had to looted my phone.
& she doesn't know my password
I forget my password sometimes...

She doesn't live with us
I've never seen her in my phone, ever.
Yet she claims to have seen my nudes

There's only two ways she could've seen my nudes

1 she works for at&t & I'm on her cellphone plan
They have my number and if they're able to access my phone just by using my number. . Then maybe but she's not saying that

2
A very long time ago I sent a nude to her friend she went to highschool with
They still talk, but they don't talk to the point where they can share dick pics.
My face wasn't in it & she didn't save the picture

So how could she have seen my nudes?

I and my sister are best friends and I love her dearly. She has been always by my side since I was in primary school and I was emotional when I went to see her during her graduation. As soon as I saw her stepping out from the college, I ran, jumped towards her and gave her a kiss on the forehead and the cheek. I can't control my emotions as I saw my big sister achieved her biggest dreams, she was holding a sheet of paper in her hands which reads Degree of Modeling from Lim Kok Wing College of Malaysia. This soon become viral in Malaysia and i was interviewed by the local news media. A few days later, i noticed that i was getting a lot of hate from people who told that I'm a creep and you sexually assaulted your sister in front of your family and other shit like that. I began to cry and to be more depressed as more and more hate and death threats were referencing to me. My family eventually realized something was wrong and told me to stay calm. Please I need help :(

I was watching TV and an add for one of the those find-a-babysitter websites popped up.

Something peculiar that I noticed, was how all of the little kids talked about their past babysitter, or a hypothetical future babysitter, as "she". Never once was "he" used once in the entire commercial!

Whether you do have youth kids now, or want to have kids in the future... would you be ok letting a male babysitter,

who is NOT a family member or a friend,

babysit your kids if he had a clean background check?

Vote and reply as much as you wish!

As you can see from the image above, Baumrind's four parenting styles can be broken down as follows:

Authoritarian - a restrictive, punishment-heavy parenting style in which parents make their children follow their directions with little to no explanation or feedback and focus on the child's and family's perception and status. Corporal punishment, such as spanking, and shouting are forms of discipline frequently preferred by authoritarian parents.

Permissive - try to be "friends" with their child, and do not play a parental role. The expectations of the child are very low, and there is little discipline. Permissive parents also allow children to make their own decisions, giving them advice as a friend would. This type of parenting is very lax, with few punishments or rules. Tend to give their children whatever they want and hope that they are appreciated for their accommodating style.

Rejecting-Neglecting - do not set limits or monitor their behavior and are unsupportive of them. Parents are often focused on their own needs over their child’s.

Authoritative - characterized by a child-centered approach that holds high expectations of maturity. Authoritative parents can understand how their children are feeling and teach them how to regulate their feelings. Even with high expectations of maturity, authoritative parents are usually forgiving of any possible shortcomings. They often help their children to find appropriate outlets to solve problems. Authoritative parents encourage children to be independent but still place limits on their actions.

How did your parent's parenting style effect you growing up and now that you are an adult? If you are a parent, which style do you tend to use?

My little sister is 15

I looked on her phone & found out some guy was messaging her sexually
i scrolled up and saw that he sends her dick pics
I didn't see any pictures sent from her though

I thought maybe he was harassing her but she was being sexual back with him
this is hard to talk about, but she was saying she wanted to do things to him...

he was saying she wanted to do things to her

very nasty things they talked about doing, should i tell our mom? I don’t think I’d be able to handle it the right way
she’s only 15..

im not sure how old the boy was, he could be some old man

there’s no way I can let this go though
it’s either me or mom

if I have a talk with her moms probably gonna get involved anyway

i know how to work social media better than my mom does so if I go on her phone, I’m going to make sure that man can’t contact her again, our mom might not know how to do that..

so pick 1 an share your view why is new years liked so much more than Christmas by so many is it the booze or the good spirit an what is it that makes Christmas so disliked

Like they decide to all hang out but forgot to invite you along too.

Ok so like 2 months ago my grandpa was evicted
My mom let him stay here, obviously
Ever since he's moved in things have sorta changed

My grandpa is very old, he likes to speak to people his age
So he started making a bunch of old friends around the neighborhood.
He's made at least 10 older friends

They sit outside all day & talks about who knows what, its pretty annoying because they all get quiet and stare once you go outside

Anyway my grandpa became best friends with a homeless man named "Toy"

The house next to ours is empty, so since my grandpa and toy are best friends, toy started sleeping on the porch of the abonded house next to ours..

My Mom felt bad for Toy.

My mom has 2 cars, her old car and new one.
My mom gave me and my sister her old car
but my sister and I don't have our licenses
So it just sits there until we get them

My mom thought itd be a good idea to let toy sleep in the car she gave to us

Do you think she's being too nice?
I mean we don't really even know him
He's just a homeless guy out grandpa met while sitting outside.

We never even knew he existed before my grandpa moved in..
& its sort of my car..

How would you feel if your mom gave you a car and let some random man sleep in it?

I mean I would've just given him a blanket & pillow

Its not cold outside yet it still gets too hot.
If it was freezing outside I'd be more understanding

I try to be a good friend, but I just don't care nor did ever care about friendships since child hood. It means nothing to me.

I only like being a "Good" time friend, meaning watching the Super Bowl or sports, movie, together, party and BBQ but nothing too close.

It's just stressful and annoying to deal with and maintain.

What about you? And does being a good time friend only make someone a bad friend or person you think?
