They want to talk. They have no idea what to say, and put the ball in your court. It’s a prompt to you to figure out what to say. You’re now the vulnerable one, because you’re the one guessing at how intimate this convo is supposed to be.

Look, I’m not making it anything it’s not. Someone upthread tried to act like the bags are so that pearl-clutches don’t have to be troubled having a conversation with their kids. That’s not why they’re bagged. They’re bagged because it’s illegal to allow kids to have access to them, and if it’s a store kids might be…

No really, if you provide porn to your kids (or any kids), you will get in trouble. The OP is mere nudity. The bagged mags are porn, and if you provide children with access, it is legally considered abuse. It’s really the law.

Not about food. In cultures where breasts are pretty much only for food, and not hyper sexualized, their nudity is a non-issue.

Yeah, that’s the approach you take for casual nudity. When you’re providing pornography to your children (such as the aforementioned bagged mags), that’s called “grooming,” and, “abuse.”

You’re not the only one in the store. They merchant has an obligation to make sure they’re not providing pornography to children. That would be illegal.

Weird that we act like women’s breasts aren’t coveted as commodities, when we’re feeling artistic. When our standards are no longer such that women are fired from their current “wholesome” jobs when their modeling histories are revealed, maybe then we can act like nipples are no big deal. But they still are. When…

What a relief seeing the video. I thought she must have heat-damaged her hair, and the model sure sounded gracious, considering.

Weird. When a black person is shot by police, we hear that they should have followed police instructions (even when they did). A little old white lady is shot by police, and she should have known better than to follow police instructions?

It’s funnier than the original. It’s a silly action comedy.

It kind of petered out, but had enough laughs to be better than mediocre.

Well, to be fair, there are still individuals who have problems with all sorts of things. But with policy, comes social change as well, so the individuals have to suck it up and try to get over it.

lol. do as you like. I’m sure you’re not hurting me or mine in any case.

It’s hurting some of theirs though. Whether you frame it as it being due to their relationship, or the fact that the relationship is illegal, minor children were removed from the home.

The Daily Mail article was revoltingly thorough. Definitely read before about how unfortunate/uncomfortable it is for close relatives to meet as adults and feel attraction. How awful for all involved.

Just keep in mind that even if the numbers look like it’s not “worth” it for both parents to remain employed, because one whole paycheck basically goes to childcare, please remember that it’s not that simple. Those years still in the workforce are doing a lot for you financially even if the cash isn’t in your hands…

capitalism?

You say your husband’s status as a sahp is the reason your lives work, but if your husband is depressed at 14 hr days with no adult interaction, then maybe your lives Don’t really work.

I think it’s unrealistic to expect that typical individual families can pay a full-time living wage to a whole other individual. That’s pretty luxurious to be in that position to afford that. Also, to be in a position where you can shoulder the risk of having your private nanny be sick one day, to have a family…

Seriously though, if you’re paying a nanny $20 a hour, 10 hours a day, that’s $1000 per week. You’re at $4000 to $5000 per month, depending on the month. Even if you have multiple children, at daycare center rates, the centers can be more affordable. If you’re just talking after-school care, then it’s probably way…
