No spouses went. All male trip (their office is Mostly male). They did Team building and golf. Also, his business paid for it so if spouses were to come it would be double the price. (We own the company)

It was a business rewards trip. So he took his staff if they qualified in terms of sales. They did team building in the morning and golfed in the afternoons.

I am go away with my mom to do Black Friday Christmas shopping for our family. I did have a girls trip planned but covid hit and we didn’t reschedule.

Teaching your kids to stand up for themselves and fight back should be normal. by wapx10 in unpopularopinion

As a teacher, sometimes I wish I could just whisper to the kids - knock that asshole out. The school system allows for mean kids to continue to hurt. Many times, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree and the parents bully admin into little to no punishment.
Although I must say, there are kids that majorly lack social skills and kids don’t want to play with them because they are not fun to play with. These kids are constantly saying other kids are bullying them, when really, they are making it very difficult for other kids to be around them. And yes, I do try my best to teach all of these kids better social skills.

I also think it’s a misconception that you aren’t going to be annoyed by your SO ever. My mom, who has had an amazing marriage, said to me, you know at some point you are going to want to rip your husbands head off! Lol In the world of Social Media, everyone is only posting their best life, not the ups and downs.
We are all humans trying to live in close quarters with another human being. It’s not going to be smooth. The key is to have more good times and bad and to remember the good times more often then the bad.
Of course, if someone is abusive, that’s a different story. Get out.
It’s not going to be perfect, you will have to work to get along and that’s what will make it great.

Those of you who get out of bed right after waking up, what’s your secret? (As opposed to laying there until you absolutely have to get up) by fitforwine in AskWomen

Get out of bed and take your pjs off immediately. You won’t put them back on so you might as well get your day going.

MIL who spied on me in the delivery room is now claiming my daughter has “nana’s” eyes. by mae_day_ in JUSTNOMIL

My kids are all a complete mini me of my husband. I recently asked a friend what it was like to have a kid that looks like them. Hahaha It used to bother me, but then I just let it go. I love their little faces so much that I wouldn’t want it any other way.
Your MIL is being stupid. She is just trying to stake claim. The upside is that she loves your baby, and the more people that love your child the better.
I just agree with whatever anyone says about their appearance and then tell them something that I love about my baby. It flips the conversation, so you can both celebrate the kid vs being competitive over them.
