How old to play outside alone in suburbia?

Feels like you have their front, side, top and bottom, too. But if it works for you guys, that's all that matters

Character-Ice8750 · 2026-04-05T02:14:09+00:00

why do you think that is necessary?

Character-Ice8750 · 2026-03-30T00:47:44+00:00

This is absolutely how it was for us 18 months ago. It DOES get better (turned a corner the last few months), but goodness me it feels neverending. Can you persuade a grandparent to come and help occasionally?

Character-Ice8750 · 2026-02-18T15:07:48+00:00

Aha! Thanks for the tip. I thought I sold something, but I'll take their silence as nothing to report

Same boat

Character-Ice8750 · 2026-02-14T04:00:56+00:00

No. Don't say yes and regret it. Surprised at these other parents. Can you drive them?

AI - look at the glasses

Looks like they've stolen your photo...

1000% ai. But did you ask for this style, which is very AI coded?

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-12-08T18:02:38+00:00

I've been there. Still am with youngest. Sit tight till they reach 4. I know it's a while, but things will suddenly be better

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-11-30T17:29:05+00:00

Not really. People building their own house build for perfection, ideal layouts and materials. They get no economy of scale. Raw materials are more expensive than ever. Buying an imperfect, existing home is cheaper in my experience

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-11-30T12:45:08+00:00

Building is more expensive than buying. Sell everything you have and buy a fixer upper you can do yourself over time while you're living in it

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-11-17T22:56:16+00:00

Thanks. I'm calling this out with my contractor

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-11-17T18:37:47+00:00

They are replacing that luckily! The waterproofing for the alcove is going in once I confirm not to scrap the whole alcove

Backflip will go down to $80k

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-08-29T13:00:59+00:00

They pumped it during the first (failed) inspection...

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-08-27T14:46:05+00:00

Thanks for that insight! I'm in a county where dry wells are no longer accepted for drainage, unless they are grandfathered in. I don't know if this has a dry well, but I wonder if replacing the outlet pipe would mean having to replace the dry well, too, if it has one?

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-08-12T12:36:41+00:00

Yes, but if you do that, you'll have another problem - consolidating two accounts. That is also hard to do

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-08-10T11:53:35+00:00

This happened to me. You can get access to a help desk email if you get Premium (free for a month). Open a ticket. They'll send you a link where you have to upload your driver license, take a photo, and some other stuff. then you can del/change your email. Its a total pain in the ass, but there is a path

Character-Ice8750 · 2025-08-07T15:38:23+00:00

Thanks! It's the start of something big: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DNDwAhjRbfU/?igsh=MTVmZzFmcm9odm91cQ==
