It's not unheard of for mothers to be asked to give up potential allergens if the baby has colitis. I've known two people who had to do it. It's not common but it's not like it's some super rare occurrence, either.

You can also get rotisserie chicken for $5 at Whole Foods. I've gotten some great deals at Costco but I don't think the rotisserie chicken is one of them.

Nancy Reagan famously borrowed designer dresses that were never returned so the idea of "borrowing" got tainted.

The phrase "underwear goes under what you wear," made up 50% of my high school dress code.

Every job I've ever had (retail, corporate, teaching etc.) had the fingertip rule.

According to their website it is available in Canada but I don't know how widely. On the other hand, I've never seen Zoya in a store.

It looks like Consumer Reports tried to pick similar reds from each line but yeah, I definitely have different colors that wear really differently from the same brand.

My midwife said that the castor oil can be dangerous. It seems to increase the chances that the baby ingests meconium. I'm due and trying to remind myself of that.

Yeah, it wasn't eligible because it's not on HRC's Municipal Equality Index. It's unclear to me why they didn't rate DC but they did rate Rockville, Alexandria, Fairfax County and Arlington County.

Argh, I accidentally linked Boston's HRC score, not Northampton's. Here's the right score sheet.

It looks like it's not actually a size limit. Decatur's HRC number is 27 (to Atlanta's 100). The list of cities they calculate the number for is more comprehensive than I would have thought.

I live in the area and was wondering the same thing. Apparently, their HRC Municipality Equality Index score is lower than Dallas'.

There's also clearly some sort of size criteria. They're only looking at big, major cities.

I know several people who have cats for similar reasons. I suspect which works better depends on how the anxiety manifests.

There might be a nice dress under that shower curtain she's got coming out of her hips.

If that's wrong then I don't want to be right.

I don't know if it's that people identify those policies with the schools. I had the same question but it's because I live in the area and Amherst famously tried to do the same thing. It's entirely possible that the other commenter knows more than me, though.

You had to care about reality TV about boy bands in 2000 to get that reference. It's probably a fairly narrow age range.

This. So much this. I am sitting here nodding vigorously and failing to come up with a more articulate way to agree.

All too often we treat learning to read as a chore and kids pick up on that. Especially kids who struggle to master basic reading skills. You know what motivates a kid to push through early literacy struggles? Stories. Treating reading like something to be loved and fun goal has a tremendous impact. If I can find a…
