Me: I don’t know if I ever want to be pregnant, I’d rather adopt a kid or two that are a bit older

Someone: Are you SURE? Older adoptees present UNIQUE CHALLENGES

Me: We are discussing human beings not digital pets

[plenoptic07]

Literally every child every born and/or parented presents unique challenges. It’s like people are unique individuals…..or something………….

An amazing and revolutionary concept

[indigo-night-wisp]

When people ask me, “Why do you want to adopt teenagers?” I always answer, “Because you asked like that.”

I’m real over it. If I become a foster mom to a 17 year old kid and I get the privilege of the option to adopt them? You better believe I am legally making that kid mine.

“They’ll be a legal adult in no time, why spend the money to adopt? They’ll be aged out of the system.”

There’s no aging out of family, Marvin.

“They might be rebellious or smoke or do drugs or steal things! What if they won’t listen to you?”

Then I guess I’ll have to step up and do some fruxking parenting, Stanley.

“You want to adopt problem children then?”

All. Children. Are. Problem. Children. If you’re not prepared to deal with the fact that at some point, any child ever, whether you birthed them yourself or adopted them at any age, could become a problem? Then you are NOT ready to have children, and should really just step off and let the people who actually want to be parents live in peace with their kids.

Hey I’m so glad this post is picking up

Posting this here because I don’t know anyone personally who would read this.

Postpartum depression and anxiety have taken over even more than it did the first 6 weeks of Ava’s life. I’m now dealing with separation anxiety and I can’t work because I cry all of the time. I don’t tell anyone how hard it’s hit because I can’t. The most I’ve said is “I’m depressed” “im having separation anxiety” so here is what’s going on as of now. There is more but this is all I will share.

I quite honestly might delete tumblr. I really enjoyed it for a long time but this whole adult content thing is really out of hand. I get something being taken off but when a picture I post that does not go against community guidelines gets practically deleted I’m done.

My boobs were not showing. They were covered and in a very tasteful ARTISTIC way. So why is it deleted?

the fact that community colleges are seen as less valid and for “stupid” people is a result of classism and in this essay I will-

[kadywicker]

ppl in the tags saying that it’s “genuinely a lesser tier of education because people go there for trades and nursing and thats about it” are just proving that its classism. bc a) no thats absolutely not correct. a good chunk of people that go to community colleges do so to knock out their gen eds at a lower price than they’d be if they went to a four year, then transfer to a four year. and more importantly b) trade professions are not lesser than other professions that take higher degrees. people who go into things that take associates degrees are not “stupid”.

if you think ppl who are too poor to attend a four year university for all four years, or that ppl who are too poor to/don’t want to get their bachelor’s/master’s/doctorate are “stupid” then i have news for you:

thats classism, babe

[somehowimissedit]

Getting an associates saved me from being in more debt. I went for my bachelors and came out in only half the debt I would have if I had went 4+ years for a bachelors. It also prepared me for a 4 year school, allowed me to save money, have a close bond with my professors AND build great references through my community. Community colleges are not an “easy way out” or “only for trades” It’s for an EDUCATION. The stigma people have against them is far more than annoying.
