My kids picked up on the concept of “we don’t own it until we pay at the front” store etiquette pretty quickly. I MOSTLY got them to follow the idea that you get to pick out one treat and if you want something else, you have to trade in that treat. It hasn’t backfired just yet. Diapers are so horrendously expensive. I am a BIG supporter of family planning. My kids are flipping amazing but this shit is no fucking joke.

I’ve got a friend who had a kid a year after me and then her second just dropped so now we’re trading clothes back and forth. Yeah, baby clothes are cheep, but you’re buying entirely new wardrobes every six months.
As parents, we are discouraged to take care of ourselves. And also, you increase milk production by resting. So it’s good for the baby if you’re a bit more selfish.
To all the people dealing with that screaming, inconsolable kid. I’m with you. Also, she’s just as happy crunching on an orange pepper. Definition of fickle.
I’m a little disappointed that Parenthood didn’t leave me more ripped…. might have something to do with the box of Nilla wafers that kept me from screaming into the darkness.
