Oh, I would train there!

THIS.

Every time the kids lose their lunch box at school I'll be ordering a 50c bit of crap of amazon so I get another sweet, waterproof, yellow container....

Yeah, I have 3 and 4 year old daughters. They get along amazingly well, they truly love each other. But if they are the evil trifecta of tired, hungry and sick... it's on.

I would love to hear the breakup song from *that* relationship.

In fact, given the solo parenting I do a lot of the the time, I am absolutely certain that if I didn't have tv as an occasional circuit breaker / babysitter, my kids would have sent me mad.

Absolutely. Especially sick toddlers. Double points if it is raining.

I hate seeing the kids in the cafés and strollers around my house, sitting there on tablets and phones. They are missing out on life.

My husband was away, my toddler daughter was sick, it was raining, and I had a major uni assignment due - a parenting nightmare. So I let her watch two days of tv. Normally she will get half an hour of a pre-recorded, ad free, developmentally-designed children's show (Play School, for the other Aussies out there)…

Y'mean card-'n-ay?

It's pre-K, so yup, I would expect a guardian or carer comes to pick them up. In my area it's a legal requirement to have a guardian sign the kids out.

YES, thank you, I was just coming to say the same!

Wow, that really is heartbreaking. Schools have such as important role!

That teacher needs to find a new school. Those kids don't deserve her contempt.

I bathe my two every day. They need it.

But there are other ways. Why not pull one parent aside and have a quiet, polite, constructive word?

Oh My GOD I never realised! Mind blown!
My kids are epic fans of The Frizz
