Griffin is a name that you only find with hedge fund Bros and rich failsons Phoenix is absolutely going to be tormented with Joker memes (Joaquin Phoenix) They're both dumb names but there are definitely worse

Putting both together makes it clear they are paired fantasy creature names. Neither is that bad in and of themselves.

The Bramble posted:Breaking it the Kids Uh, I know I was grateful when my parents told me that the poor relationship situation was being addressed and that they were ending things and moving to separate housing because there was tension and suffering in the house when things were falling apart. These people should be honest with the kids now and approach the situation together with a goal of raising nontraumatized adult humans who can have good partnerships in the future. Deceiving them churn out one last batch of "happy" Christmas postcards is bullshit.

There is still ways to go, but the idea that your average European will feel an itching to reinstate death camps when so much as hearing the word "Roma" is a bit of a hyperbole to say the least.

The day my parents told me they were finally divorcing like we'd all wanted them too for so long, was one of immense relief. I was 12, and I'm the youngest - they stuck it together for 26 loving years waiting for all their kids to grow up but couldn't keep it up until I was 18 and cracked, thank loving god they finally gave up. That was a miserable household. Also, I still love Christmas!

My point is that most Europeans have some incredibly vicious attitudes to the Roma, even among people who see themselves as the pinnacle of enlightened multicultural paragons.

I love how all of that sister's "You're just imagining it!" excuses totally ignore that the object of her desire is a human being who has been expressing discomfort. Sister, it's all in your head, what do you mean he's the one expressing these feelings to you? Just not a drat word about his feelings in her excuses.

That's why people are attracted to the thread. It is good. Without the context of the rejected parents it is just an e/n thread that has been misplaced. It is cool that you are concerned, but a CW is enough to help anyone avoid posts that would make them feel bad. Posts about bad parents are expected there, so it's less likely to surprise someone than those same stories posted elsewhere when people might not be expecting them.

Stories by estranged parents suck, because the are all incredibly vague and very similar sounding. While reading a couple can lend you an insight into an insane person's mind, there's nothing particularly entertaining about any one of them. You're never gonna find out what crazy poo poo they did to earn their estrangement or any details of their interactions with their kids,just pages and pages of how these vaguely described events made them feel.
