What is your take on over compensating American Blacks for something neither they, their parents or their grandparents experienced?
My take?Oh, if only it were possible to overcompensate them!Sadly, I don’t think that we can come close to compensating them simply for the financial damage that discriminatory policy caused them during the last two generations, let alone going back to slavery or dealing with the family trauma inflicted by, in particular, housing policy and school funding shortfalls.Sometimes, there’s nothing anyone can do to make it “even.” We can only hope to make it better, and to apply focused attention and enough resources to begin to make amends.Here’s a popular video. There are a bunch of these, but this is fairly recent.
What act of (over)compensating for something lacking in your childhood actually turned out to be not so bad for you?
Freedom to learn on my own. I missed the important part of relationships between husband and wife watching one give up there freedom to be happy by having loyalty to a point it crushed the kindness caring giving spirit one had in place is now bitterness. I over compensated lack of proper judgement in common sence choices when it came to loving someone by blinded loyalty in everything from friends to strangers team sports business. The heighten since in loyalty is good but caused me to be blinded by scams, hurt, disappointment, anger, poverty, depression, wrinkles. So the strong child pretended to not care but couldn't help being a softy and giving away the best parts of my life to never give up on people but ended up giving up on my self. Now I believe again that im normal I have issues I have pain I have wants and needs but most of all the compensation for common sence I didnt have and still dont makes me a better person not smart but better now that im older so it helped through pain self inflicted of course. But glorious wisdom not to burn my heart on hot chicks for too long it has finally thought me after 38 years
Are most bullies compensating for something?
Though it may feel good to you asking a question like this. I think you did it out of revenge. Just so you could state about his anatomy . I can sympathize with you. My brother always bullied me. Karma can be a bigger ***** than anyone else. Trust me, I've seen it with my own eyes. Show that you're the much better person. Though it may never matter to him, you kept your dignity.
APs, Adoptees and overcompensating...
APs do you ever feel like you need to overcompensate for what your child lost and what your child went through before you adopted them (i,e, abusive past or third world orphanage)? It could include everything from food to attention to material possessions. We did, especially at the beginning. Our agency was very good and put us in touch with counsellors who specialize in internation adoptions, who helped us put things in perspective. But it was hard when all we wanted to do was erase all the pain of her abandonment and trauma from the neglect and malnourishment in the orphanage. I'm curious if any other parents felt this way and what you did to combat it. Adoptees: Did you ever feel your parents were overcompensating for the fact that you were adopted? In what ways?
Is over-compensating for any problematic caregiving that you yourself received a risk when parenting with BPD?
As with most things BPD, this ain't scientific. It's anecdotal.My son is involved with more community than most preschoolers who aren't in day care, and I've revised DBT to his level.Perhaps there is less division between child needs and adult needs in our relationship. Allow me to explain. When my son is acting up, and I put him on a time out, he knows I am on time out, too.My son is being raised to understand that I am reactive- AND that I can do something about it.Perhaps he will realize I am a fallible human sooner than most children come to that realization about their neurotypical parents.Time will tell.I think many pwBPD may overcompensate for their own poor parenting in many ways, and I think a level of awareness is important in understanding WHERE they have failed us. It's not in their house rules, or lack thereof. It's in emotional education.And I don't think you can arm a child with too many tools.
A giant snake is swallowing me in dream. What is the interpretation of this dream?
AnacondaTo see an anaconda in your dream symbolizes your creativity and potential. This snakes also calls attention to your sexuality and your need to be more in tune with your own sexuality.Otherwise:Dreaming of a snake that is eating people signifies ruthlessness. Perhaps you are dealing with someone in your waking life who shows no mercy or sympathy. If you are eaten by a snake in your dream, then it means that someone is taking advantage of you. Dreaming of a snake eating your child represents someone who you fear is harming your child in some way. Perhaps you do not trust your child's judgment and are afraid that she is being manipulated by others. The dream may also symbolize your fears of letting go. To dream that you are eating a live snake indicates that you are looking for intimacy or sexual fulfillment. Your life is lacking sensuality and passion. If you vomit or throw up the snake, then it may mean that you are overcompensating for something that is lacking in your life. You may be rushing into something. To dream that a snake is eating another snake represents your drive and determination to succeed at whatever cost.
Who came up with the stupid idea of gun owners "compensating for something" in the first place?
It’s not stupid; it’s totally true. We are compensating for something.6,999,999,999 people on this planet are not the biggest. An equal number are not the strongest. Take an exhaustive worldwide poll and you’ll find the same number that aren’t the most skilled martial artist. So, just from an odds standpoint, any assertion you make that you will be bigger, stronger or better-skilled than any potential assailant you might meet is likely to be proven wrong in the long term; the odds of that actually being true for any single person is one in 7 billion. So, it’s absolutely no threat to my masculinity for me to say, right now, to an audience potentially in the millions: “I am not the biggest, strongest or most martially-skilled person in the world”.But, I don’t have to be the best shooter in the world to acquit myself effectively against any of these three people who are the biggest, strongest and most skilled, as well as the (probably) billions of people who aren’t the biggest or the strongest or the most skilled at snapping my neck, but that are better at it than I am.Guns are force equalizers. They allow the owner to compensate for an inherent lack of size, strength or martial skill by giving them a weapon that can do incapacitating damage outside the range of any of these people’s primary weapons (their arms and legs). Despite mind-blowing progress in the field of “less lethal weaponry”, guns remain the most effective option in the general case for stopping a violent threat. That means, in the general case, the best defense against anything up to and including a gun, is your own gun.
A car is traveling 23 m/s when the driver sees a child standing in the road. He takes 0.8 s to react, ....?
first he travels in 0.8sec=23 X 0.8= 18.40 m when brake applied the speed is 23m/sec retardation is 6.5m/sec^2 vfinal velocity=0 now v^2=u^2-2as or 0= (23)^2 - 2 X 6.5 Xs or s=( 23 x 23)/(2 x 6.5)= 40.69m he goes before stopping 18.40 + 40.69= 59.09 metre ans
Can i sue my sons school for falsely being suspended from school?
This isn't McGuyver, it's the public schooling system. In order to sue some one, you need to have damages. Suspending him from school doesn't constitute a damage. Could they have erred in suspending him? Sure. Could your kid be a good liar? More than likely. Remember, in Tort Law, it's about compensating the victim. Yes there's a victim, but what do they compensate? Fixing his record is your only complaint really. Hope this helps!
