Yes!

And for a while there was a "don't you dare call your daycare center school" poster/posters. Never mind the fact that children learn there and education degree holding teachers/care givers teach there every day. Like, you don't write the check, lady, so don't worry about what my kids and my husband and I call it. Geesh.

Both of you are stupid. There are way more than one person pointing out the obvious fact that school is not day care and day care is not school. My kid went to both, so I know from experience that they are very different.

Actually, you lack reading comprehension. I said *poster/posters,* which included the possibility of more than one poster. See how that works? See how posterS = plural = more than one?

You are the one who can’t read. The op asked about posters that are recognizable because of details in their posts that identify them as an individual. So by your logic, we can say that weather complainers are a famous dcum poster. But we all know that there are many, many weather complainers on dcum. Or the posterscwho point out that Maryland drivers are bad. There isn’t just one poster complaining about Maryland drivers.

The one who always says that parents letting their kids get overweight is “tantamount to child abuse.”

Actually, no, YOU can't read. The OP has said that she likes the way this thread has turned out, and hopes it continues. And I continued it. Sorry you're so bitter. Have a great life!

The “you’re no better, no?” poster. She always ends a somewhat critical comment with “...no?”

The worst!

Omg yeah I wa going to say this lady too! Can alllllways count on her to show up (too) promptly. We get it, you never wanted your kids. Really cool.

Really? I am the worst? I'm worse than the parents who helicopter or neglect their kids? I'm worse than the mothers who pass on their disordered eating to their kids? I'm worse than the parents who are so anxious that their kids absorb that and become anxious themselves? Please. My kids are loved, nurtured, and happy.

Yes

If you think I'm worse than all that, then your opinion holds no weight in my eyes. We obviously have different value systems.

I agree with you PP. Outside of neglect, I think an anxious mom raising anxious kids is way worse than a lot of things. It's teaching children a way of being that will Cause them trouble for life unless they seek help.

NP here. I disagree that simply being anxious is worse than having never wanted your kids. Not “I didn’t want them at first but I love them so much now”, but “I didn’t want kids and still feel that way and I mention it at every possible opportunity on DCUM”.

+1 million. Super weird. That lady makes me really uncomfortable, it's like she takes weird glee in (REPEATEDLY.) telling us how much she didn't want her kids and only had them to keep her husband.

I don't take glee in saying it. But just like people having abortions and not feeling guilty about them, I think it's good to talk about things, so other people know they're not alone. And I guarantee you that I'm not the only parent who feels this way, and aren't alone.

Awww I haven't noticed her, but I would be friends with her!

My two contributions
"i'll bite" poster
And the poster who suggests PAIGE in every name thread.

Oh, also the 55 year old 109 lb poster. Whatever, she's very specific.

LOL this is me!! Yes. Every year someone asks "what are your holiday traditions?" and this is mine. I was actually bummed this past year because for the first time ever AMC did NOT play GWTW at all on Thanksgiving weekend. WTF!!! It wasn't the same.
