- Toddler If your dh takes kids every other weekend, serves them dinner 1x per week and sees his parents at his place those would be perks of divorce

- decided
- Ok but you are choosing to do this. It’s not required at all, you want to do it sonstop blaming other people for what you have decide to do.
- not that big of a deal, just tell all the friends that they need to get out and they can help walk their friend to the car
- While I would meet the parents I don't know why. I can't determine in those 15 seconds at the door that you aren't abusive or a pedophile or an addict

- Same!!!!
- I remember years ago being flamed to a crisp when I said that I thought "Free' weekends were a perk of divorce. (I even explained that I know that it is not worth it, of course!)
- I think more and more people are coming to see this statement as true. I hear it fairly often (newly divorced for the 2nd time from same mistake)
- I can see your point. Your kids are safe and loved, and you get a break.
- op- My friend was newly divorced and had every other weekend free. At the time, my 3 kids were little. I envied her. I truly did!
- ^sorry NOT OP, OR!
- I wish I could feel this way. My ex is nuts and their is no calm.
- OP: mine is, too, but I'm learning to deal with his insanity without letting it take me down.
- op- My friend was newly divorced and had every other weekend free. At the time, my 3 kids were little. I envied her. I truly did!
- I call it a silver lining of a very shitty dark cloud. Then it doesn’t seem like bragging
- I honestly don't look at my divorce as that dire. It needed to be done and we're very friendly.
- Lucky
- I know. I know it's rarely like this. I do feel very fortunate that we were able to get out unscathed
- Lucky
- I honestly don't look at my divorce as that dire. It needed to be done and we're very friendly.
- Np - I know I’d be much better parent if I periodically had whole evenings and weekends without kids.
- enjoy!!!!!
- Toddler Kind of repost: I noticed a little bug bite on my toe on Friday and it was just a little itchy. But now it’s really swollen since yesterday afternoon. Do you think I need to go to...(more)
- how swollen? what does it look like? i’d be concerned with a spider bite but more than likely you’re fine. keep an eye on it
- The whole pinky toe is swollen. I’d be very surprised if it’s a spider. Never see them in our apt
- i’ve never seen any of the spiders that bit me either
- The whole pinky toe is swollen. I’d be very surprised if it’s a spider. Never see them in our apt
- A woman I watch on YouTube found out she got bitten by a spider and had all sorts of issues after noticing a swelling.

- how do you people exist ?!?!?!
- Is it hot to the touch?
- Slightly

- if you're having an allergic reaction you need internal antihistamine
- No. I put hydrocortisone cream on but didn’t make a difference
- You are very stressed about this. Would walking I to City MD.pose a financial problem for you?
- No but I would feel silly if they just say put ice on it or something
- well, you are silly
- No but I would feel silly if they just say put ice on it or something

- is she foreign?
- No. from a nice town in NY
- In her eyes they are babies
- Come on! An 11 yo, 5ht grader in tighty wihities?
- You asked why someone would do this. To her, he’s still a 5yo
- I get it! I see mine as babies as well. but I am also realistic in the knowledge that they are not!~
- she's not sexualizing them and can't imagine someone else would
- I am not doing that. I am saying MOST 11 yo would not want a pic posted in their undies. Ask you kid if it would be ok.
- this would completely depend on how the child is being raised. my kids stopped walking around in their underwear at 8. her house is different. The point I'm making is that there...(more)

- I have no problem with this.
- OMG does her name begin with an A?????
- Bodies are natural. You're making it into something.
- I am not, I have no issue with nudity at all. It is just wrong to post this to a basically public site for an 11 yo. I am looking at the feed and had to shut it down because my...(more)
- oh please. They are children. Don't you go swimming? Why is a swimsuit ok but underwear isn't?
- I guess because most/all boys now wear board shorts and not speedos. HUGE difference to me.
- well where I am many boys wear speedos, or tight bike-style shorts to mid-thigh, or non-baggy board shorts. The huge baggy board shorts to the knees are way out.
- I guess because most/all boys now wear board shorts and not speedos. HUGE difference to me.
- oh please. They are children. Don't you go swimming? Why is a swimsuit ok but underwear isn't?
- would you feel the same if it were an 11 yo girl in her undies posted online? I can answer that for you, NO YOU WOULD NOT
- How is this different than a bathing suit? I have no problem.
- I have a friend who is french and last year posted a picture of her 10yo dd on the beach with no bathing suit top. I'll admit it was jarring but clearly not an issue for my...(more)
- That’s the norm and nbd. It’s odd how uptight some people are about children’s bodies.
- I realized it was her norm and my issues with it were exactly that, MY issues.
- OP, I am not uptight about bodies, I think it is not ok to decide to post a pic of your 11 yo in brief on line. I am guessing she did not ask him first.
- I wouldn’t assume. I ask my kids. I ask my dh too.
- you have no idea and are clearly looking for reasons to judge this person. we are trying to explain to you that while you take issue with it based on your own feelings, it's not...(more)
- ^^^for the record, my dc at 11 wouldn't even walk around in underwear let alone let me take a picture of them in underwear so the mere fact that these kids had no problem with a...(more)

- Ther are GREAT!!!! parents and people. I just disagree with the posting of 11 yo in undies. thats all.
- Don't back peddle. It's clear you think she's done something wrong here. sexualized her 11yo, posted innaporpriate pictures without his consent. You keep making accusations you...(more)
- NO, I never once said anything about sexualization AT ALL. I said that I think the 11 yo would not be happy with the pic. AR maybe he is the 1 kid that is fine with his firends...(more)

- she couldn't help herself
- are the kids aware she's posting pix of them in their undies?
- I am going to guess no. Would your 11 yo , 5th grader want a pic like that on Facebook
- I do t understand what the big deal is. What if they were at the beach or a swim meet?
- because 11 yr olds and 8 yr olds do not want the world to see them in underwear NP

- ? so you have no idea is what this post just said - otherwise got get a tinypic and post it here to make your point
- I have some idea. I am on instagram.

- omg you really don't get the swimwear is not the same socially as briefs? LOL
- Omg you really don’t get that I don’t there is a problem with either one?! LOL
- it is not about what YOU think dummy, it is about respecting an 11 yr old's privacy
- Like I said, I ask my family before posting, dummy.

- OP. ya, that comment made me think. It still just seems invsive to the 11 yo. My own DS would flip out and he is only 9
- Mine wouldn’t care.
- really? mine would not be happy.
- post a pic then
- HA! This!
- I did yesterday on instagram.

- Toddler Seriously, why do men's farts smell so much worse than ours?
- They don’t
- i don’t think this is true in general
- My farts smell awful
- More red meat?
- it’s interesting to see there’s as many idiotic women out there as there is idiotic men
- they don't, but men feel free to let them loose whenever wherever. women clench their butt cheeks and wait until they are alone or in a bathroom. that explains it 100%....(more)
- I don't think this is true. Subways and elevators would be much stinkier if no men held them in
- well if they are in the elevator at work and the boss is in there, they probably won't let loose. but if you hadn't noticed, subways are pretty stinky
- BO from the homeless guy sleeping is more common in my subway trips than farting
- well if they are in the elevator at work and the boss is in there, they probably won't let loose. but if you hadn't noticed, subways are pretty stinky
- I don't think this is true. Subways and elevators would be much stinkier if no men held them in
- According to my 12/yo, your own carts don't smell as bad to you as other people's do because they are a warning about whatever maybe in your system. You don't need a warning about...(more)
- Toddler I hate it when vitamins stick in my throat.
- But is it actually in there or is it just the feeling of it being there?
- Toddler Romney got forced into a primary in Utah? That's strange, I assumed Romney was a shoo-in

- He lost to the other guy last time
- That's funny. Maybe because he never lived in Utah??
- Toddler KellyAnn Conway is the devil
- She and Dana Loesch (sp?) should be locked in a room together in hell
- Toddler I'm sort of upset. close df knows I am dealing with an issue with dc. Im reading between the lines but in front of another friend she said that if your dc is having this issue -...(more)
- She may not have even been thinking about your kid. Was she talking about your child when she said this?
- another kid but then went into broad terms. just was not nice.
- Tncoild she have made a mistake and forgotten that it also related to you? I have done this.
- maybe. but I'm going to distance myself for a bit. friendships ebb and flow right
- Ok but people do make this mistake, I don’t think it’s that rare

- sorry that is hurtful
- honestly I've been getting a vibe from her the last few weeks so who knows.

- np i keep plenty of thoughts to myself to spare others feelings
- She thinks OP's dc needs more guidance/discipline, etc.
- op actually she thinks theres something wrong with him- and there is! generalized anxiety disorder - so yes - he has no social life - so yes it is odd if your dc can't make...(more)
- no but maybe she slipped
- so then she should apologize, OP is right to steer clear
- Dodinop say something to her?
- Did op^
- no i didn't because the other woman was there.
- Then she can’t teally be required to have apologized
- Dodinop say something to her?
- so then she should apologize, OP is right to steer clear
- thats fine. and if the other woman wasn't there i would've said yeah i agree - the kids got an issue and so does mine - it was the passive way of saying in front of someone else....(more)
- and friends have the decency to keep it to themselves
- It was insensitive but maybe give her the benefit of the doubt. She may not have been thinking or realized right away she put her foot in her mouth
- Keep your business to yourself. Otherwise you will get unwanted feedback.
- She may not have even been thinking about your kid. Was she talking about your child when she said this?
- Toddler Does anyone get filler?

- WE'VE HEARD!
- Didn't we just do this?
- The kids won’t make it harder for him to remarry
- Of

- It's true statistically. Ivana is correct.
- She’s commenting on people in general not being her sons champion
- lol, no
- She’s just saying that men have it easy Post divorce
- she used their names - it is specific
- She’s just saying that men have it easy Post divorce
- lol, no
- I read the article and she is right.
- That was the case for her
- Toddler How does Poshmark work. I put some things up or sale, but never gave them my cc info. How do I get paid?!
- that is one horrid company, FYI. I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. I know the founders and management, they are shady as shit.
- Explain. If not, this is just gossip and sour grapes.
- fuck off
- don't make unsubstantied comments
