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.

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

"You matter to me, but I just can't be bothered."



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!

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.
