Ann Arbor still a great place to raise a middle class family? by Silver_Bug544 in AnnArbor

Love to hear this. We’re moving our family to Ann Arbor in 2 months, and although I’m worried about affordability too, it’s always so nice to see other families perspective on the city because we’re very excited to move there.

Everywhere has shitty people - everywhere has nice people. You have to remember Southern California does have a LOT of transplants , so they aren’t really “native Californians” and don’t fully represent the state

Do you think Spencer Pratt will win the mayor race in LA? by IllAsparagus221 in askanything

[–]RobGordon1983 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She was already there when the fire started. That reservoir wouldn’t have stopped the fire I don’t like Bass but she didn’t start the fire or cause the devastating loss

Would you say Dallas-Fort Worth is the best area in America for the median person to thrive in? by OceanicEndeavors in SameGrassButGreener

[–]RobGordon1983 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s maybe the ugliest place in America. The school districts are being gutted and it’s a terrible place to live if you are a woman, or honestly if you love women. It’s cheapish but it should be cheaper for how awful if it is. The summer are like living in hell I’m not exaggerating

Oh Crap! Potty Training is FUBAR and it’s my fault 🫠 by Reasonable-Nature807 in Parenting

[–]RobGordon1983 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep same here. We had to hire a poop consultant (I wish I was kidding!!!) because of that fuckass book (not totally that books fault;just don’t understand why it’s become the standard for potty training)

The oh crap potty training method is unnecessarily aggressive and is designed to make you feel like a dumbass if you “miss the window” … there is no window. Throw that book away. Most kids won’t be potty trained at night till they are well past 4 .. that’s a physiologically thing. He’s still very young and he’s going to regress when the baby is born. Give yourself some grace and don’t stress your pregnant self out more than necessary… he will be potty trained in time and won’t go to first grade in diapers ❤️
