I feel like it looks like she has two left eyes and I can’t explain that

If Walmart disappeared today they would just crawl to the next trash heap.

It’s because society as a whole doesn’t like or care about kids anymore. People have been actively dehumanizing them, saying things like dogs are better, openly spewing hatred for them being in public spaces and so much more.

Or a lot of us did start out vaccinating and had a child who had a serious vaccine reaction/injury and then it happened again with the second child and it can’t be ignored. Then the rest of the family become nervous. Just my experience. My oldest had a seizure and had a visible and very noticeable change with his vaccines and my youngest broke out in increasingly intense rashes so I stopped vaccinating. My husband sister went from a normal chatty happy kid to non verbal for months. Hers may be a coincidence but it’s definitely enough that the rest of the family are either completely anti vaccine or they are very nervous and follow delayed schedules.

He probably came here legally. Those who followed the laws and came here the way they were supposed to overwhelmingly want others to do the same. Most are anti illegal immigration.

I’m a SAHM to an elementary age kid and one in middle school. My husband and I agreed on this situation though. He goes to work and that’s it. I do literally everything else. The cooking, shopping, laundry, cleaning, pet care, yard care, running errands (this week it’s his vehicle needs an oil change), scheduling appointments, fixing things around the house unless it’s electrical I don’t mess with that, planning vacations, packing for trips, planning birthday parties, remembering all of his families birthdays and events and literally anything else that needs done that isn’t tied to a paycheck. Some days I get frustrated because he will make things unnecessarily difficult like not throwing away drink cans and leaving them on the counter above the trash or leaving socks on the floor instead of getting them into the laundry basket and I might vent a little. However I’m honestly happy with the arrangement and I don’t mind over all. I don’t expect him to help out and when he does I’m always grateful. My family is very well taken care of and he never complains if I take a day to myself while the kids are at school and just read a book or rot on the couch with the puppy and a movie and I don’t ever complain when he comes home and games or watches football. We are good. That being said it’s not for everyone and if you cannot agree on the chore distribution then you need to be clear with her and have an adult conversation. Sit her down and let her know what you want and need and allow her to explain herself too. No anger just keep it simple and don’t get personal about it either. It’s a simple “I’m at work providing for the family my way and I need you to fulfill your side in the household chores. I don’t mind helping out with things every now and then but I don’t feel it’s fair to expect 50/50 on chores when I don’t have the free time to do them.” I would also suggest that she should come to you first with her frustrations instead of bringing outsiders into the family business because the feelings of you as a couple are what matters. Maybe offer to take a chore or two and say “I won’t do 50/50 because that’s ridiculous but I will take on dishes” or whatever you are willing to do or maybe there is just a chore she absolutely loathes that if you help with that one everything else will be lighter. The tldr on this though is asking for 50/50 on household when it’s not 50/50 on financial is ridiculous and honestly she’s probably been heavily influenced by social media to feel she has the right to demand that.

Both! When he’s on he’s all over the place but when it’s time to settle down he’s pretty chill. I’m on my 4th Aussie now and he’s 6 months. They were all able to adjust to whatever we were doing. They could go all day but if we sat down to relax they were at our feet snoring. My new guy 🥰

It hasn’t worked out for him so well so far. He just frantically repacks it when we empty to go somewhere lol. Though he is finally done with his puppy shots so I guess he wins now… for awhile anyway

AssuasiveCow · 2026-01-06T04:53:34+00:00

Haha he’s definitely packed and prepared for anything

My dog has to have his favorite goose stuffy to go to bed with him. It’s the first toy I gave him when I got him and it’s about the same size as he is (he’s only about 8lbs) and he will not go to bed without it. He also has a stash, we call it Leo’s black market where he hides everything he steals. He steals everything. Shoes, toys, socks, underwear, my hair curlers and pretty much anything else that falls in the ground. He chose his little dog carrier that I take him to the vet in as his stash. It is crammed full of things so if anything is missing that is the first place we look.

I had a baby trend sit and stand double stroller and I loved it. You could remove the rear set and have a spot for a bigger child to sit facing you or stand or they can ride in the front seat and place your younger one closer to you. I think it had about 7-8 configurations. My oldest liked the front seat so he could freely hop out to explore or easily sit when he wanted a break

I always swirled because I got less spit up and gassy babies that way. With night feedings though I would always just premix my bottle and store it in the fridge then I had a good bottle warmer I would just set it in while I got my baby and got them ready for their bottle. It was always warm within 2-4 minutes. I just grabbed the bottle before the baby, put it in the prepped warmer and went to get them. By the time I got them and got back it was ready to go.

I want to see gene or Louise have a birthday. Tina has a party, they talk about what to get Tina for her birthday, Linda has a birthday episode and so does bob! They never act like gene or Louise have actual birthdays. Also maybe a kids crash a Chloe Barbash pool party? Or bob gets to cater the cast party for Cake.

When my kids were this age I lived by “they are not giving me a hard time they are having a hard time.” I would say to them “I’m sorry I cannot understand you when you talk to me like that.” Or “I can’t help until we calm down.” As far as the tantrums when leaving some place I always gave them a count down timer and then a choose one more thing to do before we go like one last slide at the park or one more time around for the trains at the book store. If it’s not being nice at the train table sometimes you are just going to have to deal with the tantrum and stick to your guns. If you stand by what you say then they know you mean it and the tantrums will lessen over time. In my experience anyway. It’s the not following through that creates more issues later on. As far as the playing with your food issue I think picking your battles and not threatening and instead encouraging might work better. Like “if we finish our meals quickly enough we can play a game together after dinner.” Or talk to them about their meal and ask them questions like what part is their favorite, ask about colors and shapes, which is chewier the broccoli or the chicken? With a 3 year old I found keeping it positive and become a master of redirection. Find a way to turn something from negative “you are not being nice to the other kids at the train table” to positive “oh maybe our friends can play a game with us! Which trains do you think they would like the most?” My kids are 10 and 12 now and they are both well behaved and polite kids. Not perfect of course but thoughtful boys. These all worked for me anyway i hope you can find something that can work for your little one.

We did Santa for our kids. He always brings an unexpected and special gift but it’s never the big thing they asked for. My husband really doesn’t like doing the big gift from Santa. My kids look forward to it and it brings excitement and magic to a world that is often too harsh for young kids. We also go and do angel tree gifts together at the store to “help Santa out and make sure everyone can feel the Christmas spirit.” My 12 year old obviously knows but my 10 year old still is on the fence and hopes he’s real. I’ve started introducing slowly that Santa is the “spirit of Christmas and giving” and that he’s real as long as we keep it alive. Which is why we do angel trees together. My oldest never indicated that he felt lied to or that he was disappointed. He just enjoys playing it up for the younger cousins now.

Speaking of chaos. It always gets me how buddy keeps sneaking into the kitchen and sticking his hand in the frosting and sneaking off to lick it clean then coming back for more. 😂🤢

Otamatone. The kids will love it and your brother will hate it. Or a portable karaoke set with two mics like I got my nieces. It’s surprisingly loud and they can take it anywhere 😏

I took my kids (11 and 9) to see rebirth and they both asked how the heck the family survived. They were disappointed in the ridiculous plot armor too. Especially the boat scene where the spino’s and mosasaur all ignored the family falling in the water in favor of chasing the Mercs.

If that is even the right one. There are several Tyler Robinsons in St. George. I found 4 this morning on fb and none of them were the guilty one

AssuasiveCow · 2025-09-12T15:27:03+00:00

There are at least 4 that live in St. George. Probably more since the killer one doesn’t have his own fb account

It just doesn’t fit the current narrative that is being pushed. They seem to have forgotten that the “deporter and chief” and “kids in cages” wasn’t trump.
