My daughter’s love of goldfish is out of control

Babies cry. Toddlers tantrum. Kids talk back. Teenagers test boundaries. None of these mean that you are failing.

When I get shouted at it makes me really stressed it is normal for your parter to shout at you?

For example I got McDonald’s delivered as a treat as one of my children has a cold and I wanted to cheer her up ( and didn’t want to cook) husband was working in his office so msged him ordered what he wanted. Checked app the driver was on our road so msged saying it will be here in one minute. He didn’t come in but I thought maybe he had to take a call or something. Then he came in and really crossly shouted but not loud why didn’t I tell him. I thought I had what else was msging him? Then he sat down and was nice to everyone but I didn’t even want to eat anymore as I can’t handle being talked to like that or shouted at. I’m not sure it is normal to feel sick over it but also not sure it is normal to seem that cross over little things like that. I don’t know why I’m typing this just wondering if it’s normal from either of us I guess.

5 yr old room

We just moved to a house and I am looking for ideas on how to decorate my 5 year old boy’s room. I have seen so many pinterests but they all look too fancy to be real. Pictures of your son’s rooms or inspirations are welcomed :)

Runner parents- keep single Bob Stroller along with double Bob?

Hi all. We just made another baby and bought a double Bob. Do any experienced runner parents have any advice on whether we should still keep the single Bob for runs with just one baby? Kids are 17 months apart. We are casual runners about 30 miles a week through paved flats and hills.

Normal nap duration for almost two year old?

What’s typical? My 21 month old sleeps from 7:30pm-6:30am and will nap from 12:00pm-3:00pm sometimes even go as late as 4:00pm and will still sleep great that night. I don’t know if I should just let him do his thing or maybe try to shorten naps. He’s been on this schedule since he dropped to one nap at around 14ish months.

Daylight Savings Time needs to go away.....

I'm a morning person (well, after the coffee, then I can function) and I'm normally up around 5 or 6 am so it doesn't really bother me. But my kiddo is a night owl like his dad. He's soooo tired for school this week. And next year he starts school an hour earlier!!! Which is also stupid, because as kids get older they need MORE sleep. DST is dumb. Rant over.
