Would you hire a male babysitter?

Not an armchair shrink? hmmm really

What professional job could you last the longest in without being noticed as a non professional? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Psychologist. I have a degree in it but none of the post grad, my dad is a psychiatrist and has told me lots of things and I have a personal interest in that kind of thing, I could wing it for a good while

Seems you fancy yourself one...actually

And no dipshit....it wasnt irrelevant...I was responding to your intimation of my own contribution to their mental illness manifesting and I was admitting that there could very well have been contributing factors caused by the traumatic and unstable early childhood between their mothers issues and me being very young and out of my depths struggling to handle it all. Stacked on top of their genetic potential...and unmentioned accessory diagnosis.

I never said I locked them away from all men...you said that. You made an assumption a hugely flawed one. Their martial arts and two of their gymnastics instructors were males. And none of them were ever alone with my daughters.

When males were present in my childrens lives so was I. What is this great need you seem to feel for young children to spend time with random men? you do realize that there are many cultural and religious traditions that could just as easily be at play here...you havent even stopped to consider that perhaps...while protective...the fact that my girls from 14 on have gone wherever they want whenever they want for as long as they want...could not only be a stretch for me and my protective nature, but could actually be me flexing against centuries of tradition that are generally much more restrictive of comingling than I ever was....

no of course not....because you know everything about everything. Im thrilled that I found you...Ive spent 10s of thousands of dollars on certified professionals....who knew that there was a guru of all just waiting to correct all my fucked up parenting lurking on reddit...

I feel so blessed to have met you...ego stroked you win...now fuck the fuck off already
