Adults underestimate the trouble a kid will cause from boredom and curiosity and self-centredness. It’s a self-serving underestimate (the less trouble we anticipate, the less we need to do now). Pay in school IT isn’t great and frequently t

Nice. When cash was more prevalent in my life (ie before kids) I got into buying 1700s and earlier books on eBay. Magnificent things. I couldn’t ever part with them, users shouldn’t be dealers! I love how many absolutely insanely interestin
