If you tell your SAHM friend, who will carpool Larlo to the camp they both attend?

See this is why I also say you shouldn’t be offering so much food and encouraging snacking behavior.

The kids was probably fed popsicles as a toddler.

That age isn’t a toddler it’s a preschooler.

My 10 year old wants an allowance. I don’t want to spend money on that. What’s an easy way for her to get money on her own?

Well certainly don’t ask the step dad she just met 4 years ago!

Are your friends UMC? Strivers? Are their children in AAP? Did you go to a SLAC? Are you an Executive? What is your relationship like with your MIL?

Can’t help unless I know the answers!

My fwb wants to get together, but I am embarrassed because "down there" has become a tangled jungle.

What do I do?

At the pool kids keep splashing me and my Twilight series books. How do I get them to stop doing cannonballs?

My 5yo DD wants a 2 piece Elsa swimsuit. However, I’m afraid people will mistake the swimsuit for a bra & underwear, especially since we all know what Elsa’s songs are REALLY about. Show Yourself? Into the Unknown? LET IT GO???!!! I’m onto you, you Nordic Nympho.

How can I convince DD to wear a perfectly nice, age-appropriate, full length Scuba Suit? I know most little girls don’t like black, but I even said she could get the one with pink racing stripes down the sides. She says none of her friends have to wear one, my reply is well their mommies must not love them very much and want them to be kidnapped. Now she’s in her room crying. What do I do?

Weigh down her ankles with doughnuts. If she can't move, then she can't take off the scuba gear. Then the electroshock therapy.
