I have a kitty. His name is Gemini. He likes sweeter dairy like yogurt more than he likes cat nip. Should I have names him Dairy? If not, leave a name suggestion in the comments.

I'm thinking about this event and not sure if I was just as guilty. During our mid teen years, my two female friends used to make this guy carry their stuff, got him to perform a ridiculous dance in front of a couple peers and really believe everything they told him. I knew they were using him though (even saw them touching him sometimes) and did nothing.

I didn't do anything what they did. However, I used to laugh whenever he danced awful and believed them. Yet, I'm wondering if just laughing at someone's possible misery was still bad enough.

It's like a phase where you feel the need to fit in and that if you don't join in or at least laugh (I didn't join in; I only laughed) then you're seen as an outcast and possibly risk getting obstracized. Do you think I was as guilty as my friends though?

It's become more common in the past 3 years for families to help Gen Z pay for houses.

Would your family help you? If so, with how much? Would the money be a loan or a gift from them?

I love cats

A deadbeat parent is a parent who is some combination of absent, doesn't financially support their child, doesn't show up for most major events, puts little to no effort into the well being of their child, and overall a pretty bad and/or just uninvolved parent. They don't have to be all of the above, even one or two likely qualifies.

This conversation is not about parents who claim the other parent is keeping them away. It's about whether you would choose on your own not to not everything you could for your own child.

So, would you choose to be? Have you already? Why or why not?

Say for example if the twins were non identical but looked very similar about 95% similar. If an acquaintance or someone that didn’t know them very well, maybe met once or twice, saw one of the twins walking in the street that they hadn’t previously met, but they met the other, would they think it was the twin they met?

A couple worst birthdays I can think of:

- The same day as the mother or father; sharing your b-day with your baby

- September 11

- Christmas Day

- Jan 1 or Dec 31st

What do you think? Is there just a bad day for a baby to be born on?

Before I had children I wanted to have one biological child and adopt 7 more for a total of 8. After I had children I realized how unrealistic that was for my family and the quality of life I feel that needs to be offered to each child. Now, I think 2 children might be optimal.

What's the optimal number of children you feel the you or others should have?

Like it is no longer a home just a empty building?

My aunt passed and there is a cold empty feeling inside even though all her stuff and memories are there.
