Recovering alcoholic/addict, 20 years sober. One thing to keep in mind when you have recovering alcoholics at your party, is that the needs of the newly sober might be different for those who have been sober for a while.
Yes, my sensory affected daughter was the same way. There was no processing we could do until she was more verbal, and even then, much of it was preventing the outbursts first by making sure clothes were comfortable, etc.
Respectfully, if the child is too young to understand, it becomes key for parents to observe trends and if the child is verbal, try to believe what they are saying.

The actual article we needed is in the comments: which airports suck the most ie how much time you’ll need at specific airports.
This is the problem with ATL—yes there’s a tram between the terminals, but the terminals themselves are spread out like strip malls, with no moving sidewalks, so it can literally take forever to get anyplace.
I believe so.
Makes you wonder how many other times this happened and hospital staff declined to do the right thing and did the blood draw anyway.
If you saw FX’s recent Tom Hardy infused grunt fest, Taboo, it was a key plot line. As an actual incest survivor I find it disturbing the extent to which it’s become a reasonably accepted plot line normalizing incest.
NK Jemisin clears her throat and points out that 10 pages to describe shields on a hall wall, or 10 pages to describe dishes at a feast, or (add 50 other examples like this per book) might be part of the problem...as she wins another Hugo.

Just don’t dress like this and you should be ok. (Kinja hates me, it’s a photo of some ugly racists all dressing alike—but they are fully clothed.)
