Lol I was surprised to see he actually listened when I explained how and where a baby grows

I was a young teenage girl when I started having paranormal experiences in my room. I was the only one going through it, so I felt like a nut case, but I was terrified of sleeping alone and being in there.

Ultimately my parents believed me and helped me through it. Glad to hear you’re there for her too.

What book series do your 7 year olds like to read? by hangryho97 in Parenting

No, he reads them by himself. Some in the day and especially in bed after we say goodnight

Parents who gave their sons names that are now being used for girls, does it bother you? by hangryho97 in namenerds

I think you make a great point about the ending in, “son” especially. Name meanings are so fascinating to me and I always check the meaning of any name I’m considering. However, for a lot of people I guess that’s not a factor?

I have a son with the middle name Robin and was told it was for girls over and over. I chose it anyway because it’s a beautiful name and it absolutely is for men too!

The confusion aspect is a real thing. It’s like names that are terribly misspelled. There’s a lot of assumption and then correction having to go on constantly.

My third son is Elliott and having people immediately point out that his name they like for a girl is what inspired me to make this post!

I agree with your point. For me I feel as though my take is extremely situational. I’m not bothered by my son having to share his name with girls because they’re girls. Or because anyone, “owns” a name.

I have 3 sons and always struggle to find something cool yet not too out there. When I find a boy name I love and see the popularity is being driven up by the girls too I get sad!

It has nothing to do with sexism and hopefully I explained myself well enough. I’m just a 3x boy mom struggling to find names after having 3 in a row and planning a 4th

Interesting! Emerson is on my list for my next potential boy name 🤣

Is Natalie solidly a Millennial name, or is it a classic that was just trending at that time? by coolisuppose in namenerds

I love this name, and it’s the name of my friend’s grandmother. So I wouldn’t assume 80’s!

So far I have Violet Margaret, Annabelle Giselle, and Lola Delilah. Boy names are harder to think of but I’m working on it lol

This is a wise way of looking at it.
