I wear adult diapers. But definitely not cause I'm “to lazy" . For me my body tells me I have to pee and within seconds of that notice I'm peeing. WITHOUT any control over it. So what would you have people like me do . Stand in the middle of Walmart and wet my pants so I'm not being “lazy” and wearing a diaper. I pray that you never have to get “ lazy “.

It's the same with me. Fully incontinent and without diapers I would be stuck at home and have no live at all.

I have the same problem and it does not just stop at pee…. Btw, lazy would be….. oh I will take care of it later. Thank God I got these adult diapers on….

I find this question insulting personally! One like me and so many people who rely on adult diapers for medical reasons. Two get off your high horse and open your mind to proper education and understanding. I'm not lazy I just have special needs. Don't like it oh well. It is what it is.

Same for me just 2 days ago I had to go to my urinologist specialist and then to town I doubled the booster pads and still had an accident with chrohns and my liver treatments I can't hold anything so yeah I proudly wear diapers

I know I'm not lazy either I've been wearing adult diapers for 15 years and I'm not lazy cuz I'm the same way I can't tell when I got to pee I give anything if I need afterwards these but I'm used to it I don't really care now what people think he don't need to be telling people they're lazy cuz they can get to the toilet some people can't make it I'm definitely one of them so I want to hang out and say good luck with everything I hope you get better but I learn how to live in my disability so I have a great day

Why do you think homeless shelters are so bad? What is it that they are missing?

My son had just been assaulted by a male relative. He was in high school, a junior, and he was living in a subcompact with his sick mother. Meanwhile, the police will not help, 211 has no resources to help. The police gave me a pamphlet and refused to arrest my son’s father for any infraction of the law he committed, including owing us over $65k in child support while on probation.

They wanted to separate us. Put my teenaged traumatized CHILD in a MEN’S SHELTER down off North Broadway Blvd., a very bad neighborhood for suburban children at night. The shelter is rife with bedbugs and cockroaches. People are molested there and it was a 40 minute drive one way to his school. A taxi subsidized with federal education funding would have had to take him to and from school five days a week and I would have to take him to and from his full time job 40 minutes in another direction from school.

There are no family shelters for a mother and her teenaged son. If you have male children, they are ripped from you, stuck in an all male shelter in a shitty part of town where you’d never get there in time if there was a problem. They can’t stay there during the day. No one cares, certainly not the Victims’ Advocate. What a joke that office is! “What do you want from us?!”, they want to know.

There is no shelter for me. Just for him, all the battered woman shelters are full. FULL. “Fuck off, Laura. Go die in your Mirage.” That was the sentiment. “GIVE US YOUR CHILD SO WE CAN HURT HIM SOME MORE.”

There was a two year waiting list for child trauma counseling in St. Louis at the time. It was dropped. He didn’t want to go anywhere, anyway. He developed a vaping habit the school punished him heinously for even though it was being done by 70% of the student body at the time. Special rules apply for homeless kids… special punishments, also. He had to sign a contract because he was assaulted that he would not use the bathroom while other children were in there. They ended up throwing that document away. But still… I must say, fuck them for ever making him sign it in the first place.

Talking about this upsets the piss out of me. Time to get off Quora. He still is trying to get into college and he’s 22 soon.

Oh man..when I was homeless, if I hadn't been in shelters, with my conditions, I'm pretty sure I would have died. The two shelters I stayed at (one in N city, the other S city. Ran by same group), allowed me to stay alive. And I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have gone to that particular shelter

I used to volunteer down at the Bridge, still have my shirt… then ironically, I was the one who needed shelter. We stayed in the car until it went below freezing and then we went into the LaQuinta. I didn’t think to even ask them for a weekly rate, le duh, until we were 2 months from leaving and the only reason I don’t make hotels a permanent way of life is that I can’t usually receive mail there. It’s actually not a bad way to live if you’re on a fixed income. The heat in Summer did me in more than the cold. I’ve been struggling with health issues ever since. If I ever became homeless again, God forbid, I’ll die. I won’t be able to hack it this time.

Damn lady..I will say my having been homeless, I have more compassion now. Not that I didn't before, but having been one..And praying (yea, that's something I started doing this year. For me. No prolethitizing) that we, including your son, never have to deal with that again. Interestingly, homelessness seems to be a flex in some circles. One guy got into a fight in front of the St Patricks Center downtown, popo come, he's arrested, because he's on house arrest. But his crib was in N county (yea, he was screaming that while being arrested) nowhere near downtown. And there was a young thundercat in the second shelter, who HAD a home. Actually his parents did. He would go back there every few days and get more crap. Including a huge doberman head speaker, and blast the whole gym. It gave him street cred to “live" in a shelter.

I too was shafted by the school system when I was in Jr. High in the mid 60’s. I can quite understand your rage. They talked my parents, who weren’t sophisticated people, into letting them work their will. I’ve managed to eventually forgive those officials, but it took years. I hope you can heal faster.

What does a girl really want in a guy?

Answering from a perspective of a 24 year old woman.

So far from my set of experiences and a fair share of failed and mismatched relationships, here are few qualities, I would prefer my partner to imbibe:

He should have dreams of his own. And no ambition is too grand or too boring to pursue. There is no better way to bond than watching each other hustle to make our dreams come true.

Loyalty above everything. If he couldn't find his happiness in me, atleast, I deserve to be informed and not abandoned.

He should possess an independent perspective towards life. Something that is unscarred by the trauma he went through.

He should be open to discuss about his past with me. Not that past holds a significant value, but being informed about turmoils we face can help us to understand their future reactions.

Lastly, he should never let his faith overpower his sanity. Spirituality is appreciated when it makes the world a better place.
