    My toddler is saying the “N” word and I’m not ok

    @isaac1904 As a black mom with a biracial child no it’s not ok, for any child. I can’t say I’ve never said it in quoting a song or movie, but even if her father is openly saying it positively to his friends, I look at it like a curse word or potentially offensive term. Just because I may curse...

    @funmy I’m thinking more daytime sleep may be necessary

    Almost 1 y/o and hasn’t learned to self-soothe. Are we setting ourselves up for disaster?

    @funmy How much day sleep is he getting? Sounds like perhaps not enough. But also if almost a year old whatever you want to do or even CIO you want to do soon.

    Is it a bad idea to wait until Black Friday to order my car seat / stroller? I’m due December 6th

    @mrssmith It’s fine, but also might not be on sale.

    She is one and done but I am a fencesitter, need some opinions

    @mmtb34 She’s done, so you as a couple are done. That’s it. She’s not interested in having more kids, so please don’t apply pressure here.

    My 3 yr son's teacher sent home this note, and it's crazy

    @dylanrowe1 Have you spoken to the director? I would be honest that you’re confused as to the goal of this letter and what’s required. But no, this ‘school’ or daycare isn’t really up to par. Lose the $15 and move on.

    Reddit put me off flying with a toddler but y’all were wrong

    @fkjg Well sure, you’ll manage to get through it, but how worth it that is, is individual.

    Middle v side seat for carseat

    @rabih Sides. But also be sure of space back there for the car seat you’re buying. We had a small SUV and had to consider the distance between the back of the passenger seat and the backseat.

    Reddit put me off flying with a toddler but y’all were wrong

    @samuelc Oh no, he’s not well behaved 15.25/16 hours on a normal day, that’s the point, the whole thing would be a day of stress and so that day is already elevated which makes the 45 minutes of terror that much worse and something I personally couldn’t handle. My point being that 45minutes is...

    Reddit put me off flying with a toddler but y’all were wrong

    @theriversedge I think that depends on who you are and who your toddler is. 45 minutes in a 16 hour or 24 hour travel day seems terrible to me.

    Reddit put me off flying with a toddler but y’all were wrong

    @johnd I think the moral of the story here is it can be terrible or not. I would also imagine some of the horror stories actually helped some of your experience not feel as awful as it may otherwise. I would personally consider 45 ‘hard minutes’ of fighting sleep on a plane or in an airport...

    I made a list of pros and cons of having a second (to convince my husband to be OAD)

    @serhii ‘I don’t want to have another child’ needs to be enough.
