    I’m sick and tired of being told “JuSt GEt up BeForE tHe KiDs”

    @dmurrayfly 19 years of being a mom and I’ve never gotten up before them unless I had to. I like my sleep. I have a good friend who gets up at 4:30/5am everyday- her kids are 11,13 & 16. I’m like, WHY?!? But I get that everyone is different. I know this doesn’t help but it gets easier I...

    I hate the notion that SAHPs are gold diggers/lazy

    @mahucharn I completely understand the monotony of the cleaning & straightening.. I was never good about relaxing or doing things like sitting down to read or watch a show when I had down time. I felt like if I was home I should always be doing something. It was a constant vicious cycle. We...

    I hate the notion that SAHPs are gold diggers/lazy

    @daryle Completely unpopular opinion and I’m only speaking about myself and no one else.. I’ve been a sahm for over 18 years. No one has ever been negative about me being a sahm. My mom & mil were both sahm, all my friends were/are sahm. Everyone has always been supportive. I never felt like...

    Teen turning 18 in a few years! 😱

    @corydm27 My son is 19. There is absolutely no reason he needs to be kicked out or asked to leave our home.

    How many of you have asked your 18 year old to move out?

    @garberse Our older son is 19. No. He is still maturing and finding his way in the world by furthering his education and saving money by working part time. He’s simply not ready to be out on his own or does he want to be. One step at a time…

    When did boyfriend sleepovers become a thing

    @dqueen I’m so happy to hear this about the 19 year old. For me, it’s less about sex and more about respecting the rules of the house. There’s just certain things that aren’t necessary. I remember at 21, visiting my ex-boyfriend’s parents and meeting them for the first time. We had to sleep...

    16 y/o weekend curfew

    @rafalle777 Nope. 1am is not happening. My son is 16. I prefer 10pm. Depending on the situation, 11pm. This hasn’t been an issue for us.

    How the f**k do I find a swimsuit?

    @emtbag Yes!! I’m not exactly conservative but at 44 I still want to feel & look good without exposing too much. This is the perfect top!

    I hate the notion that SAHPs are gold diggers/lazy

    @colby1122 Have you looked into volunteering? It’s the best of both worlds-You can work around the kids schedule while getting out of the house & doing something completely different. I’ve been doing this for awhile and just this past school year I’ve picked up a lot more hours than when I...

    How the f**k do I find a swimsuit?

    @annaad0617 I absolutely love this style top. I’m 44 and didn’t want anything super revealing. I know you said nursing friendly but this wouldn’t be though :( If you just Google Sunsets Taylor Underwire Bralette you can find it on Amazon and other retailers. They come in tons of different...

    Fair Distribution of Labor?

    @monique77 If you are the working parent your husband needs to be doing a lot more. What worked for us as me being the sahm & my husband working- SAHP does Sunday-Thursday gets up at night Let’s be real- If I am the one staying at home I can make more of my own schedule, take some breaks...
