I had the same thought. The boys section is chock full of the same stuff.

As the parent of an 11 and 8 year old daughter, I’m an old pro at this. BOTH girls had a princess phase. BUT, the good news is, both girls also LOVED Star Wars, super heroes, and things not Princess or girly. Tutus and crowns ARE fun, as are light sabers and Darth Vader masks. My nephew, incidentally, loves both as…

“ Ivanka Trump addressed criticism that she is “complicit” with her father’s administration emphasizing that “lack of public denouncement” is not synonymous with silence.”
Maybe not, but when she sends out Tweets about topics like equal pay, etc WHILE her “boss” is actively fighting those things, she is indeed being…

I have found that there are parents all over the map, you just have to find your people. At first, you are stuck with the parents you meet through your kids when they are littlest because it’s a natural progression. Some will stick, some won’t. I am still very good friends with a lot of the parents I met when my kids…

This happened to me at Walgreens today so IDK....went for dish soap, must have blacked out because when I got home this was my bag.

All you had to say was Frances McDormand and I am so in.

congrats! It can be very true, becoming a parent can push you into being very grown up, and it’s not weird that it would do that to Hannah as well. I think because she’s so self-absorbed that viewers have connected that with being unable to care or feel. Abortion is an interesting issue-I have 2 kids, one I found…

Say one was going to order fancy European Haribo via Amazon. Which would be the best ones to get?

lucky guy!

yikes.

I think both are true. The parents are negligent for not having the forethought or knowledge to understand that this is a bad idea, and also we can understand that sometimes people unintentionally make bad decisions. We can have some compassion for them while hoping this serves as a warning to other parents out there.…

great comment. ATV’s are incredibly dangerous and no kid should ever be driving them (or riding them). But parents make dumb decisions all the time, including me. We let our then 5 year old ride in a 4th of july parade on a float pulled by a tractor. Without a grown up. Having never done this before, it did not…

It’s just the data. And given the number of comments here about deaths and injuries, the data seems accurate. Just because you haven’t done something doesn’t mean you can’t form an opinion on it. The data says ATV’s are quite dangerous. You may still choose to ride one, but that doesn’t diminish the actual…

I think I read that collisions were the most common injury, so if you are alone, like in gym class, you are less likely to get hurt? we go to those trampoline places a lot and it’s one kid per trampoline. plus no gaps on the sides.

injuries are usually from collisions, falling off the sides, and slipping through the gaps. the net can help, but doesn’t prevent 1 and 3.

don’t. they are really dangerous. pediatric doctors pretty much beg people not to get them.

you mean “donorcycles” (former EMT)

My 8 year old routinely just falls over for no reason. I would never trust her at the wheel of this while I sat next to her!

I used to be an EMT. We called motorcycles “donorcycles”. Seriously. You are pretty much hurling nearly naked along concrete at 70 mph. A helmet won’t do much good at that speed, but at slower speeds, it will save your life. People feel free without it, I guess, but having seen the end results, I’d go with wearing…

I’ve never seen one of these but that was my immediate thought-this looks like something that could lose control pretty easily. I have an 8 year old and I can’t picture her being able to grab control of that once it loses it. Kids panic.
