‘I got scolded for letting a 2-year-old nap’: Parents demand pre-school teacher stop their kids from napping, claims it makes bedtime too difficult
I don’t envy parents trying to ensure their young children get the perfect number of hours of sleep every night. If they sleep too little, they will be grouchy and borderline evil the next day. If they get too much sleep, they will bounce off the walls and be unable to sit still during their …

The Wildest Parenting Posts of the Week (April 29, 2024)
I’m obsessed with parents who think their babies are geniuses. It makes sense why a mother who spends 24 hours a day with her kid might come to that conclusion, especially if they pass developmental milestones with flashing colors. Everyone thinks their kid is much more special than they objectively are, and there’s nothing wrong …

Parents buy 18-year-old daughter a $65K Jeep they can’t afford, befuddles adult son who previously offered $5K for car payments: ‘The 5k won’t even last the summer’

Living at home can be a blessing and a curse. You get to be close to your family and receive their support, but it usually comes at a price (like micromanaging, or struggling with independence). Defining one’s relationship with their parents as one gets older is a tough terrain to navigate. Parents sometimes have difficulty …
