I had my son model for a small company that mainly does online products for children. It was a no-pay shoot at a local park. He got to keep the two outfits, plus shoes, and got a $25 gift card to their store, and I got full raw photos for personal use. He was there maybe 2 hours? It was 2 other boys and 4 girls and…

California, Florida, and some other states that I don’t remember I have husband is assumed-to-be the father laws. It actually requires some effort to alter that.

Maybe, but it really seems strange to go on about how awful it is cutting hair (which is an optional thing grown women do), and then whine about how men need to have cut genitals (which is something usually forced upon an infant without their consent).

Shit. Now I wish I had photos of me riding a dragon on my wedding day- either of them. Maybe for my 10yr anniversary, only 4 more years!

The juxtaposition between the complaining about current standards for pubic hair maintenance transitioning into shaming men for not having their genitals *surgically altered* was fun.

Honestly, this is the 2nd standup of hers that I’ve watched and found myself cringing. She’s a bit racist, too. I want to like her, but…

Wait, are you seriously comparing a supermodel to Louis CK?

I have a magnolia tree in my front yard and a huge gorgeous magnolia painting in my dining room- overlooking said magnolia tree. I’m all full up on magnolias!

Euphemisms. “Good girl”, or “studious” or “Not boy-crazy like some girls” are all things that can be said to let other parents know what a supremely excellent parent you are. The way the sexuality of girls/women is used as value judgment, it can’t be that hard to see.

To go a step further, some actually declare it…

The technology we have now, and I’m sure that we will have in the future, ads an additional level of danger for the kids. I don’t want my 15yr old daughter to be convicted of making/distributing child porn and a registered sexual predator of a child <16 because she sent a pic of her boobs to her boyfriend.

I swear to…

Lots of parents do it, it’s like a badge of “good parent” if your daughter is a virgin (good but less so for boys), and your kid (any gender) is not on drugs and has good grades.

The ACLU is on it- stores your video and helps you report it:

I wonder how much of a social commentary it would be to spray paint a drone hovering outside your window? Would the person be just totally outraged by it? Would the expectation of privacy be extended to those in 2nd-floor apartments and higher with no other means of accessing views into their windows...

Nah. Infant is specifically an under-2 child. “Baby” can be any age child, they are always your “baby”. Heh.

I wish I could star this 1000x. One of my exes was a gaslighter. Cheated on me and everyone knew... his best friend told me though- but it was 0-hour, only 5 weeks before our wedding date and after I had already contacted a bunch of his other friends. Apparently all his friends thought we had split but were living…

Mine would be thrilled with 3 kids and being a SAHM. She would love this house an maybe do some gardening/fixing it up. She was way more motivated and liked being outside. She would be super stoked by the black and purple hair and tattoos. She would be super upset about being fat and really confused about being…

Not disgusting- delicious! Honey-fried bananas are one of my favorite desserts.

That is like my youngest. My eldest has a reading disability (which was a difficult work-through as an avid reader who started before starting school), but always loved being read to. My son loves being read to as well, but my littlest one insists on a level the other two never did.

+1 bookcase. A lot of people don’t really value books though. I mean, they do in a general sense, but not like those of us who buy a book and keep it forever. The only reason I don’t have an entire bedroom in my house full of books now (since I lost some in various moves + divorce) is because I have a Nook and a…

Names on clothing is the #1 thing that leads to kidnapping? Um. No.

I think this is key: “As kids, we hear racist jokes all times of the day. It’s what we’re around, it’s the jokes we heard.”
