stupid assumptions people make about others

I went to a psychiatrist once and he told my mother to send me to boot camp because I was too hyper. I have ADHD, this psychiatrist was supposed to help me. Needless to say I never went back to him. My mom found me a different psychiatrist and I’m very happy with the medicine he’s prescribed me. Since I’ve been on my meds I’ve not been as hyper as I used to be.
 
I have 3 stories about my family. The first two aren’t so good,but the third has a happy ending. So please bear with me. :D
1. My grandmother’s either passed away a few months ago, she went to the funeral with my grandfather. Her sister-in-law wouldn’t talk to her, apparently she’s never liked my grandmother for no reason. When this sister-in-law’s son got married she made sure my grandmother wasn’t invited. My grandmother was so hurt by this. She didn’t get to see her brother a lot because of this woman and now she wasn’t even allowed to be at her nephew’s wedding. My grandmother doesn’t speak to her sister-in-law as she has spurned my grandmother on several occasions. Even when this sister-in-law called my grandmother after her brother passed, she found a way to be mean to my grandmother. Needless to say I’ve never met this woman and I don’t want to. I don’t want to have anything to do with someone who feeds off of tormenting my grandmother.
1. My father’s parents both came from Hungary after WWII. My grandfather had a brother in Pennsylvania and this brother had an extra property that he rented out. He let them stay their for like 3 years, & then one day he kicked them to the street because he wanted to rent the house out. He gave them no warning. My grandmother had to work as a nanny to support her family while my grandfather worked as a projectionist at a drive in movie theater. Then my grandfather passed away from lung cancer when my dad was 13. Now my grandmother had to support 2 kids and herself on a nanny’s salary. The only family she had in this country was her brother-in-law who wouldn’t help her. My grandmother’s sister-in-law went behind her husband’s back to help my grandmother out.
3. Now both of my parents grew up as Traditional Jews. When my parents were dating they decided that they wanted to become Orthodox Jews. They were put in touch with a Rabbi that dealt with converts. He advised my parents to keep a strong relationship with their parents and never to sever ties (this same Rabbi actually married my parents). At first my father’s mother wasn’t so thrilled, but before their wedding she made peace, and embraced their decision. My parents had 2 weddings. One wedding was done according to Jewish Law and the other wedding was more secular. They did 2 weddings to make their parents happy. My mother has an amazing relationship with her parents and older sisters as well as my dad’s family. My dad has an amazing relationship with his mother and brother as well as my mom’s family. We eat at their houses and they’re always careful that we have kosher food. Since my mother is the only one who keeps a kosher kitchen we have thanksgiving at my house, which I absolutely love! Everyone comes to my house and we catch up on each others ’
lives and everyone gets along amazingly. I love my family. Even though my grandparents, aunts, uncles, & cousins aren’t as religious as my family we get together for birthdays, holidays, and weekends. I love my family!
My grandpa also came from Hungry during WWII.

Loved reading thus!
 
I really enjoyed reading thru all these posts.

I and my brother were just talking about this last night...

I've had an amazing opportunity to learn and I'm very grateful to have had the what I got.

My family is Christians, which leads to how I think about many different things... My Parents have been very diligent to teach me and my 8siblings o respect others, not form hasty opinions, and this goes for respecting others opinions, etc.

I moved to a new state last year where the people around me are totally different from my old friends. But it has been an amazing experience.

You can find me with mucks, a skirt, and T-shirt, playing tag in the yard with my siblings. lol. That's me, most people don't see me the way I see me... Most people think I'm 21 and the pretty curly haired girl with sharpening blue/green/gold eyes. I never thought of myself this way but this is how people around see me... They don't see the girl I see, A stubborn teenager, waiting to have fun, lol.

But I'm not the girl to look at someone and form opinions... I remember hearing someone say ”If you can only find something to say about someone on the outside then your not pretty on the inside or outside”... Thia holds a lot of truth for me.

I was in the store another day when a lady looked like she was having a hard day, Me being me I just smiled that sweet understanding smile I could throw... She was almost in tears by my gesture. Made me very humble to see what something so simple as a smile could do.

I've had my ups and in life but I've made it thru and The trail is just beginning!

Not worth time looking down on others or yourself!
 
You sound like a truly awesome and amazing and beautiful person. I would be so proud to have someone like you as my daughter.
Aww thank you! I can't stop smiling now :hugs

ya we have tons of coyotes where i live just a new trapper so i have no skill on catching them, getting close.
Coyotes can be very hard to catch... Especially in a live trap
For foxes and coyotes, my favorite trap is probably the #2 Montgomery dogless coilspring. They lie very flat and are easy to hide, but they have a pretty forgiving jaw spread. I also like the Duke # 1 ¾ coilspring traps, but any in the #1 1/2-#2 size range will work and won’t damage the skin. Although they will typically hold coyotes, I’d recommend traps in the #3-#4 size range if you’re actually targeting them.

My grandfather (mother's side) lost his family to the holocaust - came to US. My grandmother came over for an "arranged" marriage. Didn't like the man, so refused. Connected some how with my grandfather and they both fell in love. I really loved my grandma. My father's side, weren't the loveable types.

I'm from my dad's second marriage. His parents never accepted me, my sister or my mother, and when I had to live with them in Colorado while my parents looked for a house in California, their dislike of us became even more obvious. It was awful for a nine year old girl to feel like a second class grandchild all the time and to hear my grandmother saying unkind things about my mother.


People suck. I'm sorry that happened to u

My neighbors that live around the block from me are lesbians. They are older women and they have 2 children in high school. They have short hair cuts. It doesn’t matter to me that they are lesbians. They are some of the nicest people on my block, they watch my chickens when my family goes on vacation and I have offered to watch theirs but they already have a set person that watches their pets when they go away on vacation. We swap chicken information, they recommended a wonderful woman who sells chickens and I’ve been very pleased with the birds that I’ve got from her. They don’t advertise that they are lesbians. If you saw the two of them walking together you’d assume that they’re good friends. When we see someone we only se the external, there is so much that lies with in that we can’t see. So we shouldn’t judge people on their looks, beauty is only skin deep.
