I am getting the feeling of carsickness very frequently lately. It is nausea which culminates in migraines. I am having more migraines lately in general. Could this be related to hormonal changes at midlife? What can I do to prevent this? I feel like I can’t go anywhere more than 10 minutes away and I have to take a lot of extra strength Tylenol for the migraines. I have had disrupted sleep a lot lately from having to care for my sons who wake up in the night so that doesn’t help.

I am thinking of trying this out myself and then maybe with my special needs sons. If you tried it, were there any effects you noticed? How long did it take to see effects? Does it make water more hydrating or less?

These were the words that concerned me the most.

I am a petite woman. I wear a small or extra-small in regular clothing. I wear a large or extra-large in underwear. Otherwise it hurts. Do most people up their size in underwear?

Memory Lane! i remember so many of those and how happy they made me!

I like Jewel! She has a patch on her eye so you could call her Pirate or Treasure. Calico or Sky.

I know it’s a big group but not everybody posts. It seems like a lot of celebrities!

I think I’ve been here since 2007 or 2008 when I figured out that my special needs son needed to read good books and I was trying to figure out what to read to him. I am so grateful for these boards and all of you!

I don’t know what I clicked on Pinterest but I have gotten a whole bunch of pictures lately of orange slices shaped into animals.

I asked it about events in my area this summer and it said it could not help me because it’s last update was Jan 2022. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Are there any online events for Pi day that my teen son (who loves math) can participate in?

about my sons’ seizures and the weird behavior that goes along with it. It is so seriously stressful to have to witness this and have to deal with it and it makes me so sad for them. Please pray that these useless seizures go away. (Yes, they are both on medication and seeing a neurologist)

It is not one specific relationship but rather a few that I observed and wondered about, etc.

Hypothetic situation: An adult child (late twenties or thirties)living in another city. Every time they visit the parent catches them up in a matter-of-fact way on the current lives of the relatives and acquaintances of their past. This ends up being a list of great achievements ie. “A” just got married and moved to (fancy neighborhood). “B” just got their PhD. “C” became CEO of (whatever). The parent is not doing this to put pressure on the child but feels they should share the goings-on of the community. The adult child is doing moderately well or struggling in some way but by no means achieving the success of these others. They listen to all this news and feel that they should feel happy about these others’ successes but end up feeling badly about themselves though they don’t tell their parent this. In general, should parents communicate this kind of info. to their kids? What do you do or what would you do in this situation? Have you experienced this as a parent or an adult child? What if the adult child is doing just as well as A,B and C? Is there any reason not to share the news?
