So anyway...still doing the group chat with bff and the guy and having a bit of trouble getting the conversations to last longer than a handful of bubbles. Anyone got any tips on how to start the "talking" part of a "talking phase"?
I'm so mad This is what I wanted to avoid in the first place and it happened amyway
Asking me what I decided on and being all "Well, idk, your dad's paying for it right?" Like I'm the only one who can pick up a damn phone and discuss it with him. Like, I gotta strong arm them to make a decision or to do something instead of it being all on me, I hate it
Love that my sister and mom offered help me with the task, I appreciate that. But, I would've loved it more of they were like "hey, we got this. It is not your problem to sort out so the main responsibility shouldn't be put on you, don't worry about it." But okay
And while I get they're divorced, this is still their kid and therefore their problem. Figure it out or have the other child help. Why me? Idk, maybe I'm just tired of being said 'third parent' or because I expressed that I didn't want any responsibility of this task from the beginning.
Without sounding like you don't want to help said sibling or your parent just because... Because, I told other parent (they're divorced) something like this and they took it well and even apologized, but idk how to say this to this parent without 1) Angry-Crying 2) Sounding mean
How do you tell your immigrant parent "in any other circumstance, I would help, but it's the passing the responsibility of this task to me in a way that gives "eldest daughter = third parent" instead of to the other child, who can do this themselves, that is pissing me off. Ask them, not me." 1/2
Undocumented immigrants paid $97B in taxes in 2022. T-Mobile, Office Depot, and Duke Energy made billions in profits but paid nothing in federal income taxes between 2018 and 2022. Remember this the next time the undocumented are called "freeloaders."
