Yeah I’m sure she had NO IDEA of that before they got married and had a kid and I’m also sure she had NOTHING in common with him. wtf

I read all of that too and thought oh man, he’s guilty. But then I read that his brother also requested halbach from auto trader, has a sketchy alibi, and has sexual assault priors. So I gave it some thought and in response I’d say: the DNA on the car is all suspect, even this sweat they supposedly found, since they…

Yeah it was a pretty straightforward compliment and she was clearly the initiator of that topic of conversation.

Yeah this seems like the right spot for that “contributing to the delinquence of a minor” charge.

Yeah my mom would call all the time, even like at 3am, when the phone was right next to my roommate’s head. If she would have written a letter, she def would have left that little detail out.

Yeah that’s definitely true. If this woman can’t respect her daughters need for space under these circumstances, it doesn’t bode well for the relationship. 18 year olds may be adults under the law but they are actually just kids.

Well said and let’s not forget that with parents like this the daughter probably did not feel as though she had much of a choice as to whether or not she should go to college, or where - so while she is quite lucky she may not feel that way at the moment. The mom is quick to mention that she is paying for school but…

If what we are supposed to do is just give her the benefit of every doubt, what’s the point discussing it, or even reading an advice column in the first place? Her question is full of red flags that betray a person who is struggling with petty anger issues with a daughter who is going through what is natural for an 18…

Yeah that’s what this is about.

Yeah that’s the one. They never fail me so if you’re ever in a bind don’t be afraid to buy a pack ;)

Consider yourself warned.

Death to keurig, and all who admire their innovation. My house is still full of plastic.

Ha. When my kids were born, I had to repeatedly insist to my family that if they bought plastic toys I’d give them to charity. My kids are developing fine with minimal plastic. It’s mind-boggling to think of the mountain of waste created by objects that kids lose interest in in months and sometimes minutes, let alone…

Well keurig capsules are an environmental disaster and formula is already embarrassingly easy to prepare. Just saying, maybe think about the baby’s future on planet earth?

The gerber diapers I’m talking about are just the rectangular trifolds, similar to many other brands - the basic old fashioned cloth diaper used until disposables came around. I use those plus a thirsties cover. I have all in ones too, which are great, but pricey obviously, plus they are sized so my kids outgrow them.…

Really? The gerber ones never fail for me.

:)

Yes please. wtf. and then to have your daycare provider admonish you for not putting shoes on your 4 month old.

congratulations!

I got a moby and discovered that my babies would only put up with it until they were like 3 mo old and after that it was too stifling. I got a cool hippie sling and never felt safe putting my babies in it. The thing that worked for me was like a baby bjorn style thing. It fits all ages and allows them to move their…
