So instead of just steaming broccoli and calling it a day, I started roasting everything in the air fryer with a little olive oil and garlic. My 7yo and 9yo actually asked for seco
This has been going on for weeks. He gets holes in literally every sock we own within days. Is this a sensory thing? Should I be worried? Or do I just accept that I'm gonna be buyi
Got both kids down by 7:45 without any "one more story" negotiations or bathroom trips. They're both asleep. It's only 8:30pm and they're ASLEEP. I'm genuinely not sure what I did
This started three weeks ago after we watched Jurassic Park (yeah I know, maybe too old but he begged). Now he's ALWAYS a dinosaur. At the grocery store? Velociraptor. At his presc
He wanted more juice and just said "more juice please?" without me reminding him. I know this is like the bare minimum but I'm riding this high all day.
My 4yo will watch it on repeat and honestly I don't even mind it. There's actual good humor in there for adults and the parenting feels real, not preachy. Plus Bluey's dad is kind
My daughter will be fine. She's social, excited, ready to go. But I keep thinking about her sitting alone at lunch or something going wrong and me not being there to fix it. I know
Apparently he's been noticing when other kids are upset and bringing them tissues or their favorite toys. We didn't teach him this specifically—he just started doing it. My wife an
My son has entered a new level of questioning everything and ngl it's exhausting. Yesterday we spent 20 minutes discussing why the sky is blue, then why water is wet, then why wet
Both kids played in a tournament last weekend. Lost their matches. Expected meltdowns, tears, the whole thing. Instead my 8yo said "I played pretty good though right dad?" and my 6
My 6yo starts first grade next month and the cafeteria food is apparently "disgusting and weird." Need something that keeps stuff separated (texture issues) and doesn't leak. We've
Everything was fine. Potty trained, sleeping through the night, eating relatively normal foods. Then 3 hit and it's like someone flipped a switch. Back to accidents, he's waking up
Just dropped $95 on a pair of New Balances for my 10yo because his old ones are literally falling apart. And I KNOW he's gonna outgrow them in like 8 months. This can't be sustaina
Just found out yesterday that my 9yo made the competitive travel team and I'm still riding high. She's been playing recreational for like 3 years and this season we thought "why no
Our daughter is 3 months old and I'm still in the paranoid phase where I check if she's breathing like every 20 minutes. Someone on this forum recommended the Owlet and I was skept
Starting to think my son should learn about money management but I have no idea what's reasonable. Should I tie it to chores? Just give him a set amount? How much money are we talk
It's been almost 2 weeks now and I'm not gonna jinx it but... I think we're actually done with the 3am visits? We did the whole routine change thing - later bedtime, white noise, k
Dude. I am NOT okay. We've been working on this for like 3 months and today he just... did it. Went down the driveway and around the cul-de-sac. My wife was filming and I'm pretty
I know this is like the most basic dad win but man I'm so hyped. We've been working on this for 6 months and he kept getting frustrated and giving up. Today we went to the parking
My daughter's ready to ditch the training wheels and I'm shopping for a bigger bike. She's average height for her age. Do people actually like the balance bike approach or should I
