In 1999, a woman named Jessica Gonzales sought and obtained an order of protection against her physically abusive husband ("AH"), who had repeatedly threatened to kill her and their three children. The order included language specifically limiting when and where AH was allowed to see the children.

From the 6yo's perspective, Mommy dropped him off at school one day and, for reasons it will take him — and me — a lifetime to understand, someone decided Mommy shouldn't be able to pick him up that day, or ever again

It's not too late to get your flu shot. Flu circulates year round but more intensely during flu season. For N. hemisphere:
Onset: October–November
Peak: December–February (most often January)
Decline: March
Tail end: April–May (occasionally later)
This is why we give shots until the end of February

That sounds like a tautology to me, so I think maybe we are reading the intentions behind the Tumblr post & comments differently. But the post is gone, so it’s a moot point. Hope you have a good day.

They’re saying that the discussion is based on the question “Is it Explanation A or Explanation B?” So responding “You (and OP) are assuming Explanation B, but the truth is Explanation A” is based on a misreading of the question.
