My kid called me a "fucking psychopath" because I eat my oatmeal without dumping sugar on it, so lots of exaggerated name calling going on around here. :)

I am cool with psychopath…calling a kid fat whore is sort of a red line for me but YMMHNV


Lots of yelling here… my kids are driving me nuts…by night time they have worn me out


The one on the autism spectrum is going through a phase where he is fixated on sports trivia- particularly pertaining to the history of franchises- and he just throws this random facts at me all day nonstop..it’s cool for 30 minutes.. I need to find him something new to fixate on - a new affinity- before I throttle him

Yeah, I don't call my kid names like that.

I should say that my wife busts her balls for my kid and is often and usually a much better parent than me. Only occasionally she is a much worse parent than me. Nasty name calling a case on point. I should probably list all the good things she does too. I'm an even keel person, she swings wildly. Opposites attract, but sometimes that makes it hard. Also, my spoiled, immature only child is not easy to deal with. She gets lots of trying traits from each of her parents. :)

I don't envy your autism situation and admire you for adapting and living and loving. That's what it's all about.

AC is cheap it's effect on the environment is not.

I just said I'm childless. As long as the planet fails to turn into a smoldering wasteland until 6 months after my wife and I die, I'm pretty unaffected by the consequences.

that argument is hogwash.
people who live in cold environments send WAAAY more pollutants into the air than AC units and their electrical draw

takes much more effort to heat from 25 to 68 than to cool from 95 to 72
