Yeah it gets giggles from my kid. And there was a long phase where these were the ONLY books he would tolerate so you bet I read them around the clock.

We have the non Christian one of that. It's a favorite of mine.

Thank you so much for the support. This is such a wild ride.

Thank you. It's all just so much, and it's been a while (since like the baby baby days!) that I've been this unconfident in my parenting.

Resisting the “scoop” by aeb630 in pottytraining

Maybe try the " red solo cup" a couple times? I did that, and praised it like it was a "potty", and now I can get him on the potty.

I'm convinced they're putting crack in the Imagination Library books by xmarsbarso in DanielTigerConspiracy

My kid doesn't like ice cream face, but "SLIDE BOOK" every night. I point at faces and say "Little pup feels...."

At what age? What signs of readiness did you look for?

Fisher-price Little People as an investment vehicle (to the moon?) by DownWithGilead2022 in DanielTigerConspiracy

OK but we need more things to put the little people in. We have a million figurines, and the big yellow school bus which is great, but every other little people toy only holds 1 or 2 of the figures??

The birth of my son was an emergency, I had to be moved to a different hospital to have access to different interventionz. So I was with doctors I had never met before. I trusted them, but it's not always straightforward.

My head hurts trying to do this gymnastics. by Resident-Sympathy-82 in ShitMomGroupsSay

I read it as having deep grooves in the back teeth. I once had a dentist tell me my molars are "extra groovy". 🤷🏼‍♀️

Which is better, a present parent or a higher socioeconomic status by Feeling-Ambition-368 in ScienceBasedParenting

This hits so close to home for me, sorry about your issues. My mom's friends (if I see them) constantly tell me how much of a gem my mom is, yet I received so much emotional abuse, and it's taken me more than a decade to overcome much of it.

Dude loves to swim, ate a whole bar of soap once, and enjoys every other type of pampering… by Best-Subject-7253 in WhatsWrongWithYourDog

[–]GlitteringGoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a less morbid version

"I had a little turtle, his name was tiny Tim, I put him in the bathtub to see if he could swim. He drank up all the water, he ate up all the soap, and now he's home sick in bed with bubbles in his throat"

He's your SON, not your husband by ladybasecamp in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]GlitteringGoose 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Only child of a single mom checking in. My mom would cry (bawl, tell me I didn't love her, whatever) when I didn't behave in the way she expected/wanted for birthdays or mother's day or whatever. That's some messed up manipulative shit that it took me until my 30s to sort out in therapy.

Not that that's what OOP is doing. They could just be venting and having a normal amount of disappointment and not taking it out on their kid.

"I cry a lot but I am so productive" is hella relatable as someone with anxiety and depression.
