See the thread on the NYTs article about the hyper burden of parenting these days. This includes shlepping to the grocery store as a family unit, which is literally the biggest waste of time.

Divide and conquer, folks. Your life will be better.

This. My parents never went to the grocery store together, as it made no sense to take in entire family out to do one thing. Unless you are a single parent you can divide and conquer all errands, or leave one parent at home with the kids while the other does the errands.

I literally just got home from grocery shopping with my family.

Look, I am a SAHM and 90% of the time I grocery shop with my toddler while my oldest is in school. But sometimes it's fun to make an event of it; the kids see things they want to try (and it's good for them to SEE the fruit and vegetable options, and to be involved in cooking), and my DH helps me load everything into the car. Today we went to the playground, then to the grocery store, then out to lunch together. We enjoyed spending time together, and tomorrow we're going to do a little cooking and baking - with the food we bought as a family.

Thanks for the laugh!  [/quote]

PP here.  Seriously don't understand what's funny, unless you're just trolling.  Is it so shocking that two parents and their kids could enjoy going out together to the playground, grocery store, and lunch?  If so - I'm sorry your life is so miserable.[/quote]
