[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The notion that someone should only have children if they can afford a single family home is probably the most privileged nonsense I’ve read here in a long, long time. You people are ridiculous. Living in an apartment means that you are in close proximity to your neighbors. Being courteous means doing your best to limit your family’s noise, and there are a fair number of known ways to do that, many of which it sounds like OP already has in play. She is doing the best she can and is worried it’s not enough. Most of you came here to pile on and tell her she’s a bad mom and a bad person and shame her for having another child. Do you feel better now? Proud of your awful selves? You sure told her![/quote] Someone needed to tell her because she obviously doesn’t get it. [/quote] Except she’s not a bad mom or a bad person. She’s in a difficult situation and was looking for some support. Plenty of people figured out how to offer her suggestions without being jerks. You chose to be mean to someone because you think you’re right. Do you think that makes you a good person? I don’t. I’d take OP and her kid over you people and your privilege and horrible attitude any day. [/quote] OP isn't the one who needs some support. Her neighbors do. And probably her poor kids. Telling OP that it's all fine, she has a right to terrorize her apartment complex and it's all fine, doesn't help anyone. It doesn't sound like a remotely healthy family or living situation for the children. She's stubbornly wanting to stay there because of some pie in the sky idea of sending her kid to a certain school. Never mind that studies after studies have shown that the most important thing determining outcomes is the family and home life, not the school. And also never mind the fact that if her daughter continues with the misbehavior at school, she'll likely have a bad experience there anyway.[/quote]
