    Please share your 3yo morning getting ready routines because holy h*** I’m exhausted

    @priya12 I think you need to back track. What is happening at the 15 minute mark? What have you said? What’s the routine? This is where the conflict is. You can take the biggest hurdle and make it first. Kid gets dressed first thing. Then eats. Then brushes teeth. Then you leave. Visual...

    Daddy sleeping in

    @nessofonett05 It doesn’t matter what we feel. It matters what YOU feel. Talk to your husband about your needs and a potential compromise

    On a first-name basis with 2-yo

    @stop_cern_idea My kid is 5 and still calls dad and us by our first names. It’s hilarious but also I don’t mind.

    Is having a second kid really worth all the trouble? It looks exponentially harder to go from 1 to 2 kids than zero to 1.

    @christopherpriestley My kids are 4 , almost 5 years apart. My daughter was born a month ago so I may be speaking too soon but 2 kids has been pretty easy. I would think that 2 really young ones is really hard.

    I caught my 13 year old boy calling a little girl a “b***h”

    @georgiana You did a lot of things right. What I would do now is sit down and have a serious conversation about his actions. Don’t ask him questions about why. The truth is- he either doesn’t really understand why, he doesn’t understand his consequences, or he won’t tell the truth. Instead I...

    God I hate my 5 year old right now

    @poweredbyjesus When things feel hard I have to consider what strategies and procedures I’m using that just aren’t working. Hope you find some solutions soon!

    Is it weird that my ex and I say “love you” to each other?

    @skupi There is NOTHING wrong with your relationship. It’s beautiful and it’s special. Do not let anyone take away this great coparenting relationship. It impacts you and the kids. Be upfront with your partners about the family dynamics and find someone who fits into it all
