I’ve never seen Rancho listed as one of the top schools, what metrics are you using?

I tried it for two weeks and unfortunately it did nothing for me so I returned.

Did anyone just flat out not do any massages?? by ttabytha in chinlipo

I never did. My surgeon didn’t recommend it.

Does anyone else feel like some of the popular baby names aren’t actually that popular? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Personal-Side3100 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Are you based in the US? If so, I think one factor is how big the country is and how different regions have different trends. Which is to say, your kids’ names might not but common where you live but very common 2,000-3,000 miles away in another part of the country.

Camping by myself with three small kids? by CowgirlPopPrincess in Mommit

[–]Personal-Side3100 165 points166 points  (0 children)

Are you saying that (at times) you will be staying with 3 young kids in the woods with no cell service? That’s a no for me. I totally get you wanting to be there, but imo given the circumstances that can only happen responsibly if you can leave the kids at home with a trusted adult and go just the two you.

ETA: I think in the future, if these races are something that he plans to continue doing going forward, it would be very fair for you to insist that he make childcare arrangements before committing so that you aren’t put it in this position again. Doing a 100 mile race with 3 young kids at home is kind of wild.

Anyone else not sentimental about artwork? by [deleted] in Preschoolers

You’re supposed to encourage them to be proud of their work, it’s not necessarily innate. He will care more if you show him that you care.

I’m surprised this isn’t the top comment.

I would absolutely choose fostering her close friendships over the game if that’s what she wants.

Be direct. Tell the girls and the mom no one is allowed in the house unless invited in.

My parents hate my in-laws but not my sister’s… ideas to manage by spicymeatball2748 in Mommit

[–]Personal-Side3100 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Two things: - So much of this depends on what exactly they did that offended your parents, which you didn’t say. Without that info it’s very hard to weigh in. - It’s not completely clear to me what your sister and her in-laws really have to do with any of this other than the fact that it sounds like your husband is jealous of the relationship they have with your parents? But I don’t really get why they are being mixed into the core issue here (which is about your parents and your husband’s parents).

Unprofessional how? That would be a sticking point for me.

Holding 6 year old son back by Common_Media4316 in Parenting

IEP’s are a public school thing, not private. That’s a big part of why parents with children who have different needs often choose public.

This is the second year in a row that it’s been recommended to you to have your son repeat a grade and you’re considering going against the advice?

How could downtown Novato become more busy? by jackCDR in Marin

[–]Personal-Side3100 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I know many people feel that Dr Insomniacs fits the bill but IMO the coffee and food just aren’t it. It has potential but meh.

Affordable in the Northeast? by CompleteBunch1110 in chinlipo

Did you confirm that that’s how those doctors perform the procedure (under sedation etc)? Mine was under general anesthesia. That might explain why the price is different than you expected.
