How exactly do you serve nuts...wrong? What did she do, pour them over the VIP's head?

So many men don't want women earning real money because all these guys have to offer is earning power. If women as a whole could close the wage gap, these clowns would have to come to the table with good personalities, good looks, a certain weight/ height, etc. You know, all the shit that women are required to have in…

Ten years from now, I hope she's in college, studying hard and doing what she wants.

I need to get this whole interview because she sounds fabulous. Black girls are spectacular, always and forever.

I have a thing for "Linda" and "Yolanda". Everyone hates it, but really who would have those names? I also always liked Franklin and Edward for boys.

I live in Germany, and earlier in the fall, there was a toddler and dad duo on Saturday afternoon when there are a million bazillion people out, shopping, having coffee, walking around, etc. That kid was having the most incredible tantrum—screaming bloody murder, writhing on the pavement, everything—but his tall…

Two of my cousins (brother and sister) each have a son, one named Robbie and one named Bobby. Neither is Robert, their legal names are Robbie and Bobby...

I love Weissbluth. He was our kids pediatrician until he retired. Kind man, super helpful, humane and knowledgeable. My babies were amazing sleepers and are still amazing sleepers as big kids. He is a great champion of nursing & knew exactly how to encourage new Dads, too.

I couldn't do the reassurance checks with Baby Bourbon because it made the crying worse and longer. Baby Bourbon is happy and snuggle-y and smiley despite Weissbluth-style CIO. We hadn't planned on it because BB had been such a good sleeper until 6 months.

It means:

I think some people side eye super early cry it outers. Like, my sister suggested I use cry it out at like, 6 weeks and that if I didn't, the baby would manipulate me into picking her up all night. I had to explain to her that a 6 week old is not capable of such shenanigans. I personally think it's pretty effective…

" remember that it's really about your kids."

Yeah, the Nerdlet is pretty much the happiest baby I've ever met. But man did he love to hang out with Mommy at 3am. It was fucking GUT WRENCHING, but now we are BOTH getting a good night's sleep, so I'm thankful for it. I ALSO totally get how its not for everyone. I wouldn't wish that first week on my worst enemy.

Sometimes you have to just let a baby cry. It's not abusive. People who think it is are idiots.

Some of my family members were very negative about crying it out, since they were of the opinion that it was extremely cruel and unnecessary. I didn't really care, it worked very well for us, when the babies got older. I thought that the sleep deprivation before crying it out was considerably crueler for all of us.

THANK YOU. We did cry-it-out with my extremely difficult sleeper at around 6 months, with the encouragement of our pediatrician. There seems to be no lasting damage (understatement of the century—my toddler is happy, sweet and now a world-class sleeper), and it made us all soooooo much happier. Seems like a strange…

No, it is not bad. Crying it out was the best thing we ever did, and I'd do it all over again. It's weird; I find that cry-it-outers don't really judge parents who don't cry it out, but the opposite is not true. Odd....

I have friends who were really not into the cry it out method. Now they have a kindergartener who still sleeps in their bedroom full-time.

Wait, is it bad to be a "cry-it out" er? That shit was hard work, and not for everyone, but sheesh, I had no idea that would keep someone from being friends with me. I'm friends with co-sleepers, and I would never do it, but different strokes for different folks, right?

Or you remember that children are the world's least reliable narrators, and all this means is that "apple" was the first food this kid thought of when asked the question.
