Tuesday July 29, 2025 | Helicopter Parents? Yes or No?

-

I ran across on YouTube an individual who is in her 30's still living with her parents.  She has a joint bank account with her mother and her mother takes care of her money.  It sounds similar to me except she has ADHD and some other problems. It is in her videos.  And me? I have selective mutism. This is why I think I am sheltored.  It is because my parents think that people could take advantage of me. Am I right or am I right?  I am pretty sure I am right.  

Down below is a link to a YouTube video I found of a woman in her 30's in a similar situation like me.  I wanted so much to find someone else in a similar situation.  Well almost but not quite.  She does still live with her mom and stepdad.  I understand more than anyone knows.(i think) She was talking about helicopter parents but I still don't think so.  They do these things because they love me and don't want to see me get hurt or fall on my face.  I believe that my parents would foam rubber all of Beaumont Texas just to see me fall on something soft. (joke) LOL!   But what exactly is helicopter parents?  I typed in helicopter parents in google but then I remembered my parents saying everything was "bullshit" on the internet and that the internet is so scary.  So I decided that this is not the same thing as me.  It's just the fact that she was still living with her parents.  But that is really not the same situation.  I mean they don't fly over my head and watch what I do.  I mean they don't watch me take a shower or go with me and Jason to the store.  Everything I did was my fault.  I made myself lose my jobs.  I admit it, it was my own fault!

Sunday August 25, 2024 | My dream on Saturday night August 24 | Hypnosis for selective mutism

-
I had a dream that I was in the hospital in Galveston Texas like the one I was in when I was 10 years old.  Working on getting rid of SM through hypnosis.  Is there a good hynosis therapist in Beaumont Texas who specializes in selective mutism?   I am determined to overcome selective mutism now or at least most of the way.  Some idiot told me that I won't be able to overcome SM entirely.  Ugh!  Or will I be able to overcome SM entirely?

Wednesday August 28, 2024 | Do parent's say this to their kids who have a disability? (the highlighted words in this blog)

-
Got this from copilot from the question I asked, " would people pleasing be an example of "you don't want to disappoint mom do you"? "   Is this true?   Sorry I had a flash back of my dad saying that question phrase that is highlighted in yellow.    (A phrase that my dad said to me when I was 3 and 4 years.)  Ah, the delicate dance between parental expectations and a child’s desire to please! 🕺🌼 Let’s waltz through this topic, shall we? “You don’t want to disappoint mom, do you?” —a phrase that can carry both love and a subtle weight. It’s like a mini emotional tug-of-war, with the child caught in the middle, clutching their teddy bear and pondering life’s mysteries.   Here’s the scoop: The Mom Guilt Tango : Parents often mean well when they say this. They want their child to succeed, be kind, and make them proud. It’s like they’re handing the child a bouquet of expectations, hoping they’ll bloom into the perfect little sunflower....

I knew this when I was 5 and no one had to tell me this. So is this really true? But because I have selective mutism, my learning challenging and people think that I am stupid. It is that communication thing that people think that I'm stupid. I know the highlighted and BIG LETTERS SOUNDS unreasonable, I just want to get across to people that I am anxious all the time! Do I have to start cursing for you people to hear me? I will. I know that BIG MOTHER OF ALL CURSE WORDS. I bet no one knew that did they? Actually, I got it from those kids at the hospital in Galveston when I was in the hospital back in 1984. So I knew about that word when I was about 9 or 10 years old. Actually when I was 4 years old I felt like I didn't belong because I was trying to tell myself how or where I got my selective mutism and I felt that way for a long time. Maybe my dad has ADHD? Perhaps my parents have ADHD and it somehow turns into autism in children? High-functioning Autism. I th...
