- That sounds awesome. Pre-kids we nearly did Bhutan and also a tiger safari in northern India. Sadly neither came to fruition.

- I'd do the tiger safari with kids when they're teens (expensive though!!)

- If he was crashing a party, any kid might be asked to leave, but if not, that parent should (I hope) encourage inclusion.
- Yes, and yet I know if his 12yo sister had gone over, they would have welcomed her
- Yeah but you understand why it can't be the same
- Yes, but I guess I wonder when *is* the “right” time when kids are willing to be inclusive and indulgent of an annoying, socially awkward kid?
- if that's really the case, that's heartbreaking
- Are you sure?
- Yes 100% b/c my 12yo dd often does join in with that group, and there were other girls in the mix
- Yeah but you understand why it can't be the same
- Yes, and yet I know if his 12yo sister had gone over, they would have welcomed her

- really juvenile move and it destroyed her humanitarian trip. stupid move
- My theory is that Trump made her wear it as part of a smear campaign against her. It's not so far fetched considering he's a Narcissist.
- ^^ I'm not defending her at all, it just doesn't make sense.
- it doesn't matter WHY she did it. It backfired and makes her look worse to anyone who has half a pulse and an IQ over 85
- bait as part of the quest to delegitimize the press
- Why are you inventing explanations that she hasn't offered?
- But we’ve moved on from that. She thinks we care about her??
