NO. What is so hard about this? Logistics of going to the pool with three kids is a *completely reasonable* question for a mom of three to ask. It really, really is. There's no agenda there besides how to make it work.

Nope. This is exactly what OP did, only with a different issue (pool).

The OP didn’t say anything about pool lady specifically, but rather bright up the issue of disorganized parents who blame their issues on large families. Sharing rooms is not objectively a bad thing. The examples in this thread (cut from teams, missing school events and projects because the parents “missed the emails,” etc.) are legit. Nowhere does it imply this is true for all large families. If it’s not for yours, great. You guys are so defensive - against things that weren’t even said! It’s nuts.

The actual original post from this thread:

"s/o from the pool life thread. But it extends everywhere. You had three kids by choice. You knew what the repercussions would be for your kids and yourselves. Not as many activities, harder in public places in the younger years etc. You can’t make the defining soccer game because one parent has to travel and you don’t arrange backup? Then don’t sign up for the team, and don’t complain when the coach only selects the “committed” players to move up. It’s your kids that are suffering. Either manage it or don’t but stop complaining about your own choices. Rant over."

Bolded added to emphasize the hostile, unwarranted response to a woman asking a simple questions about logistics.

Pretty sure that’s not meant in response to pool lady’s kids specifically, but the situations described later in the paragraph. But you obviously want to believe what you want to believe and I’m pretty sure nuance isn’t your strong suit.

Op: who told you to have 4 dang kids then?
Us: yeah true true

?

Working Mom of 4 who has literally never complained that raising 4 kids is hard. The closest I come to it is responding to questions like, "How was your weekend?" Or "What did you guys do this weekend?" with a comment along the lines of, "Crazy! 5 games, 2 birthday parties and more laundry than you can imagine!" If someone hears that and decides I'm a bad mom who had more kids than I can handle, then I think that's an unfair leap and unnecessary judgment.

Let's not forget the title of tons of the original post. That's what set everyone off.

If you’ve never complained about how hard your 4 kids are then guess what:

This thread wasn’t about you!

And I’m pretty sure you are a master of projection.

You have reading comprehension issues, because it’s clear that’s what the post meant. Just let it go, honey. Above your pay grade.

i am willing to bet $50 that OP thinks sharing room is, in fact, a bad thing. missing an occasional school event is not objectively bad either. there are many many events.

I'm willing to bet the op thinks vacation pics on Facebook are universally obnoxious.

I'm also willing to bet op looks down on Disney, cruises, and ocean city.
