Dealing with so much poop is actually not that bad.
- treeman79 6y agoThat’s the least dramatic part. Dating drama is exhausting. Late teenage rebellion period is exhausting. Nothing like years of effort, lectures, standards tossed out the window. Umm daughter, your boyfriends profile picture is of him sticking a can up his ass. “”He loves me!, your stupid”” For younger ones chore battles are my current stress point.
- ramshanker 6y agoI saw my future in those words. :D
- treeman79 6y agoPro tip. No phones. No social media. It was unreal to see a happy, social, respectful teenager become depressed, uninvolved and nasty with a phone. Then a complete reversal every time it was taken away.
- twelve40 6y agonot very realistic. Bay Area, schools force parents to buy ipads (with Hangouts and everything else). Eventually they also need laptops to do projects. Pretty soon the house is littered with devices, old and new, trying to decide every second if a device is being used for a "legit" purpose or not becomes impractical. The best hope is to teach them what's sensible and what's not, and leave it up to them, after all, they will have to deal with phones and social networks for the rest of their lives without you.

But I was surprised to discover that infant poop doesn’t hardly smell. And also surprised that when I got puked on, it didn’t bother me... it felt as if I had thrown up on myself, which is not fun, but also not really that terrible.
