    I fell while holding my 3 y.o. Niece.. would you ever forgive me if I was your SIL?

    @bigphi008 When my kid was 2, she took off running during a walk with her dad. He yelled at her to stop. She didn't and immediately fell on the concrete. She somehow only scratched up the space between her nose and lips--that was an unfortunate looking scab. My husband felt like the worst human...

    If your Kid were a straight-A student but also skipped school 2-3 days a week, what would you do?

    @godblessed777 Okay. At least you know the problem. You are bored. I don't know where you're located or the resources available. At my kid's high school, there's a lot of course offerings and there's an option to take classes at the community college or do work training. For me, I got a job that...

    If your Kid were a straight-A student but also skipped school 2-3 days a week, what would you do?

    @godblessed777 I was this child in the 1990s. I was suspended all the time for skipping while lettering in academics. What I would do is ask if they are bored out of their mind. If they're able to ace all their classes and not show up for over half the class, then those classes aren't engaging...

    Do you think i would deserve Christmas presents if you had 3 F’s in school?

    @kolson0319 Oh dear. My mom has never denied christmas gifts because I got a bad performance review at work. Maybe ask your parents for their performance reviews so you can decide how much consideration and value they are entitled to at home? Look, three Fs is not good. Every kid is capable of...

    Parents, how much would you be willing to pay to send your child to a private in home pre-k?

    @bookreader66 In my area, preschool and daycare are classified as different things. You can find a daycare that is also a preschool and this is what I go with because I need year round care. If I just wanted a preschool and didn't need care over summer, I would be willing to pay $200 a week...

    If your child saw a demon or h go dot would you believe them?

    @owly My child had a fever dream that spiders were crawling all over her. She would not be convinced there were no spiders on her with the lights on and all her blankets on the floor. Of course, I knew this was a fever dream. I didn't tell her what she thought wasn't real. I stayed with her...

    Is it selfish to have kids with large age gaps, 10+ years?

    @aog17 I have two and they are 10 years apart. It took me that long to decide to get pregnant again. My kids adore each other, but don't have a lot in common. Its basically like both of them get the only child experience but also get to have a sibling, that connection to someone else. Its not...

    Does anyone else have a completely healthy older kiddo that still wets the bed?

    @nyanmaru Mine did until 10-11. The alarm kind of worked until he started disconnecting it or sleeping through it. The pediatrician didn't see it as a problem and I figured that he got into a deep sleep and just didn't wake up. I didn't make a big deal about it. He grew out of it at the end of...
