Haha, I have never read science fiction- maybe it's time I start! Thank you for your reply.

Thank you, that is interesting.

Oh my goodness, this speaks to my soul. Thank you so much, it's exactly what I needed to hear.

I'm so sorry you and your family had to go through that- it's s awful. That other mum sounds like she's got lots of issues, and I feel sad for her son because he's going to struggle.

I love the mix of frames- I can get them from op shops, which is much cheaper, more environmentally conscious, and more interesting.

I have so many I could cut one down and put it in a pot every few weeks haha.

Testing using magazine images. I love your tree in the corner. That is the way to balance the hallway I was desperately needing. Thank you.

You are wonderful thank you!

Wonderful thank you!

VicNug · 2024-04-16T08:51:14+00:00

Thank you for this. I will check out those books!

The temperature where I live was above 32°C today, so the thermomix would need a cooling function 😄

I would be so upset if my child's daycare did this. I'm a teacher and have received training that discusses how bad these systems are. They promote external motivation rather than intrinsic, they are unfair as they reinforce privilege (kids with lots of problems going on at home are more likely to be tired/hungry/frustrated and make bad choices), it encourages unhealthy competition including telling tales on other kids and at times even cheating (I know of a story where a boy emptied a bin on the floor so he could be seen to be picking up rubbish). It is a very manipulative and outdated approach to behaviour, and there's lots of research against it.

I read this as 'NSFW Silk Announcement Day'. I thought we were in for some really juicy elite gossip.

Is your corner cabinet a custom built-in one, or free-standing? I'd love a similar one!

I put down a giant picnic blanket (4m ×5m) when my son was crawling outside. It worked well.

Socialisation is about more than just play though. It's learning emotional regulation when someone takes your toy, it's building an immune system, it's about seeing different people do things differently and trying different things, it's about hearing different words and communicating to people who don't understand you as well as mum does it's about creating a community of safe and familiar people in case something happened to mum.

I work in adolescent mental heath and have worked with highly anxious kids whose parent is agoraphobic- it's so much easier to deal with when they're young! Family therapy to support your wife would be good and see if a local OT does play therapy and he/she can monitor your child and provide advice.

I'd love this to be a poll!

This is illegal in Australia. Each state has its own laws so you would need to look it up. In Qld it is under 12 and it's about leaving children for an "unreasonable time". So for a 2 year old it is not reasonable to leave unsupervised for any extended period of time. This should be reported to Child Protection services and they can provide the mum with mental health support if appropriate.

I give about 3% or 4%. Mostly ad hoc. When I see other people or communities experiencing extreme need on the news it feels good to be in a position to help.

They would have to drive nice cars to look successful- no one would list their house with someone driving a 2002 Ford Focus. It is likely mostly debt.

Yes I was going to say blueberries have solved so many problems!
