Sons of Hengist conducted a training activity in central Ohio.
Members engaged in a workout that included cardio, boxing drills, and sparring matches. These sessions serve to build endurance, discipline, and strengthen the bonds of brotherhood among its members.

@DeerBLB A ballet recital that’s at a official School of Dance where 99% of the students are in a normal setup (not religious, in school full time since age 2/3, kids in lots of activities, suburban)
English
Today I spent 5 hours at a normie ballet recital, working as a mom volunteer in the back. Helping the (2-10 year old) girls change between costumes, keeping track of them, etc.…. how they are being raised was flabbergasting
The amount of 5 year olds left to brain rot with iPads was staggering. Kids playing Roblox unsupervised, watching YouTube shorts for HOURS, just pure brain rot - when they had the option of running around and playing with dozens of other girls their age.
Saw little 6/7 year olds girls punching and hitting their moms who kept saying stop and the kid didn’t listen. No consequence until the 8th punch.
moms talking about how they have their kindergartner in 5 different dance classes: 3 hours on Wednesdays after school, 2.5 hours on Mondays and Thursdays after school … (no wonder they have behavior problems - they’re exhausted!!! )
All topped off with a group of 8-10 yr olds practicing their twerking and stripper dance and I was ready to run back to my homeschool co-op and never look back.

@NoblestCalling it’s all new to me so I know not the cause was just so shocked at what I was seeing
English
@maternalgroyp Tbf your last couple of points have always been a feature of dance moms
English
I’m not saying it’s a function specifidally of public school.
But they absolutely were not doing their best. There is zero reason their 5 year old needs access to an iPad for 2 hours while surrounded by activity, room to play, and friends to play with
That’s simply nothing but cope
English
@maternalgroyp Do you think this is a function of public school? It is a function of our society and the dance world. You make choices for your child. Period. Great. I hope you are all doing well. Being so judgmental isn't a good look. Every one of those moms, you included are doing their best

@Himbeerlotte @MinxyXJinxy But like, how did people even know what hospital you were at if you didn’t want visitors?
English
@MinxyXJinxy @maternalgroyp I dont think its fair to blame him, lets maybe blame the people who ignored my boundaries, didnt ask if I was up for visitors and just waltzed in. It wasn't my in laws so not someone he had a very close personal relationship to and he did tell them I didnt want to see anyone./
English
Simple solution if you don’t want visitors:
Don’t invite anyone to the hospital if you don’t want them to come visit you.
We don’t even tell anyone until after the baby is born and they probably don’t even know which hospital I’m at unless we specifically told them.
It’s super easy and simple to enforce boundaries if you want them. And if you do want people to come visit you, more power to you !
But preferring in-laws do not visit you/baby at the hospital is not a moral failing.
Blonde Musings 🇺🇸@musings_blonde
My mom and mother-in-law stayed in the hospital waiting room all day. They prayed and prayed, and when my husband texted that our son was “finally here,” they cried and danced around the room together. Imagine after all that telling my MIL she couldn’t see the baby. I understand needing rest and boundaries postpartum. Truly. But some of the discourse online acts like grandparents are random intruders instead of family who have loved and prayed for that child long before they were born.
English
@Himbeerlotte For future reference you can tell the nurses no visits allowed and they will enforce for you and they’ll never get to your room
English
@maternalgroyp I was very vocal about the fact that I didnt want visitors but they came anyway. Its not easy to enforce boundaries when youve just had an emergency c-section, are still paralysed and nobody listens to you. I didnt have the strength to stand up for myself more.

@HatMoney83 @RRR0BYN your opinion.
I don’t see how this is much different than Shiloh tbh

Anytime a man finds peace it's a woman's trigger lol
Probably just paid all the bills after working his soul off
When did it become normal to publicly shame our spouses? It's super weird...
Men... stay away from these types.

@Nukalith @Mike1753482 @BrianAtlas How much more can she tend to a baby once it’s already asleep on her ?
It has everything it needs and then she’s nap locked on the couch for a while.
English
@maternalgroyp @Mike1753482 @BrianAtlas Then she shouldn't be bitching and recording and tending to the baby more.

I need 10-20 people with signs protesting outside the court house in Tennessee - politely, simply sharing the truth.
Let me just give you a snippet of what i found, this same court gave a 100k bond to someone that raped and killed an infant girl.
Morning of May 21 is when the judge takes a formal, evidence-based look at the $1.25 million bail. I need to reach his lawyer Jacob Fendley before that hearing asap.
Montgomery County Courts Center (Doug Weiland Courts Center) 2 Millennium Plaza Clarksville, TN 37040
The building is bounded by North Second Street, Commerce Street, North 3rd Street, and Franklin Street. It sits next to the historic courthouse in downtown Clarksville.
Phone: 931-648-5700 (Circuit Court Clerk)
DA Robert Nash's office is at 200 Commerce Street, same block.
Public Defender Roger Nell's office (where Jacob Fendley works) is at 112 S. Second Street, one block away.
Everything is within walking distance of each other in downtown Clarksville. If anyone is attending the May 21 hearing in person, that is where they go.
I will be providing the all data we will confront these supposed Justice officials on signs, shortly.

@h3ll0again I had ppl over both times I was still bleeding 🤷♀️ even this most recent time, I had to kneel and not sit due to a tear and I still had ppl over besides my mom
English
I dont think this is what she meant at all.
Having your mom is one thing, having multiple of your relatives in and not allowing his is harsh. Thats all.
You dont have to agree
Who cares
Jinx@MinxyXJinxy
Women: right after pushing a baby out of my body while I'm bleeding and struggling to walk, I'm not interested in having guests see me in that state so they will have to wait a few days to meet the fresh baby. My mom will be a support person for me the way women have supported their daughters through childbirth since the beginning of time. Batshit Crazy Brittany: so you're saying you hate your husband.
English
Did their son rip open his vagina to push a baby out and now he’s bleeding all over himself, doubled over in immense after birth pains, naked exhausted and embarrassed ?
No?
So let’s defer to the one who is in that position regarding who she’d feel comfortable with seeing her in such a vulnerable state.
English
@maternalgroyp Except they are not in laws to the baby, now are they? They aren't in laws to their son. Excluding is failing unless you exclude both sets of in laws.
English
@pcosprincess22 Are you a member of a church ? Do you have any friends with little kids also who’d be willing to watch them ?
English
My MIL is supposed to watch my daughter when I go into the hospital. I literally have no family that can do it. She knows she’s the one I trust that lives near us. She is already making excuses for what may happen like she can’t do it on a work day?? So I have to either go into labor now or tomorrow morning or wait till next weekend as if that’s how it works. Mind you she’s literally taken the day off to drive 45-1 hr away to watch my husbands brother’s kids for a day…
laur@naurpillled
I asked my mil on April 16 to help with the kids so we could have a date night & she said she’s busy until late May and she still hasn’t gotten back to me. Mind you we are moving across the country in June

@TVsBuckBuckley @Dogula66 Hard to say “I was incorrect” huh
English
@maternalgroyp @Dogula66 Well the baby is little. Doesn’t need a whole room.
English
Isn’t the main difference that you are laying there naked, bleeding, milk leaking, and your own mother has seen you naked and it’s your own bloodline but your inlaws it would be way more awkward and inappropriate?
Why is waiting an extra 24 hours until you go home and are dressed, settled in, etc. for them to come see the baby a huge deal ?
Taryn@TarynA83
Ladies. I am telling you this right now. Your husband’s family matters when you have a baby. You can say they aren’t allowed in for delivery. You can ask for limited time visits. You can ask for your husband to entertain and introduce the baby if you want to stay in bed. BUT- asking his parents/grandparents to wait to meet them while you let your family in is cruel and selfish. EVEN IF they might annoy you, or his mom is an attention hog, your baby is just as much your husband’s. Your recovery needs matter, but alienating them is wrong.
