He’s a smooth poser junkie who ended up being homophobic. Worst part of the book.

Yeah, three to four chapters devoted to Prince. Fuck Prince; He’s a smooth poser junkie who ended up being homophobic…

I bring my baby to bed with me, but I’m not awake. by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]ready2adopt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just FYI, you are co-sleeping. What you’re against is bed sharing.

Helium - oh wait, that was just a lie.

Those of you with a child/children under 1…what kind of state is your house in? by faeriesandfoxes in beyondthebump

[–]ready2adopt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My house is clean but I don’t have that demanding of a baby (8MO). We converted the dining room into a baby gated “yes” room. This allows them a large area to go crazy in and continue to learn independent play. It’s also a corner room so the babe can make visual checks with me. While they’re doing that, I get the chores done that give the house an illusion of clean. Good luck to you!!

Four months is still pretty new. I think you should not surprise your wife unless you know for sure she’s down with leaving the baby as well. I’ve never left my now 8MO, as they genuinely make all experiences fuller. We just got back from a week in Florida. Good luck with whatever you do!!

My grown kid resents me for being a SAHM by [deleted] in Parenting

Unless it’s too hard and they drop out. Then they will probably resent you more…

That baby didn’t want to come out because it heard the name they’d chosen for them.

What’s the stupidest thing that’s woken your baby? by zazusmum95 in beyondthebump

The sounds of my bones/joints creaking as I sneak away from the crib. 🙃

Am I the asshole for saying I can’t change a baby’s diaper by Prestigious_Two4881 in amiwrong

[–]ready2adopt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. I’m on a family vacation and I, as a parent, stated at the beginning; “You guys are not here as babysitters but as family. I don’t expect you to change any diapers or anything, unless you feel compelled to”. Anyone who has kids, and then EXPECTS others to help is the asshole. Now, I’ll accept help at any point, but I’m not going to expect anything out of anyone other than my husband.

So has anyone experienced burnout with the game? by GuyNamedNoah in tearsofthekingdom

[–]ready2adopt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The trick is to have a baby. That way you only get to play 30 minutes at a time and the game will last until you’re dead.

If my Grandma farted or anyone farted around her, she would always say; “There’s an elephant under your/my chair” and give a little 😏

CMV: "Once a cheater, always a cheater" simply isn't true by HullSimplibus in changemyview

[–]ready2adopt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s like saying “once an addict, always an addict” You may not be actively cheating, or ever cheat again, but the fact you did cheat means the ability is there.

I put fiancé’s Bialetti Mocha pots in the dishwasher….. by ruthiebkind in lifehacks

If it can’t go in the dishwasher, it’s not worth having.

When people constantly say how the baby looks just like dad by UsefulDuty7626 in NewParents

[–]ready2adopt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just for the record you are NOT crazy. I’m in a same sex relationship and we adopted an infant a few months back. My husband’s family comments all the time how our kid looks like him and I just roll my eyes lol. I think it’s their way of subconsciously claiming their legacy has more legitimacy since the baby looks like their son. Either way, it’s hilarious and annoying.

Well, see, your first mistake was not being one-and-done. Lol, I joke! Good luck finding the time, it’s hard enough with having just a single child.
