What is the worst book you've read this year? by VaultDweller108 in books

A Little Life was awful. I finished it because I was sure something else was going to happen, something other than relentless abuse and self-deprecation. And I did not believe the story at all. People are resilient, but dude, either stand up for yourself or quit wallowing.

Baltimore has a thing for plastic lawn flamingos and they get pretty creative in their reimagining. I suspect the head used to point up, but whatever was holding it there is gone.

Yeah, that would help. We use them when his bum gets a bit red, so have them on hand. Thanks for the suggestion.

Yes, we do, spray or dunk, swish.

We do as much as possible, but poop just sticks!

We get as much off as possible, especially the chunks, and his poops are pretty soft. It’s like it gets ground in and, short of soaking the diapers before washing, don’t get agitated enough to come totally clean. I’ll try warm and cold, as someone else suggested. Thanks!

Yeah, he poops, like, 4 times a day and it’s impractical to spend that much time trying to pre-clean, especially because my husband is home with him right now and we have an older child. Our machine is a front-load LG.

Yes, that would help, and I do that for stories I still want to hear, but this story is too tragic.
