Ha! That cat is useless at doing my bidding. He was curled up with me, snoring ^_^ I finally got up when Emily's cries of "Hungry! Hungry!" became more painful than my head.

I hear you. Usually we don't get to lay down any time of day either until Things One and Two are asleep. They'll make sure of it. :)

I would have just let her help herself to a snack but she can't reach the pantry door yet ;o)

Having an interesting "conversation" with someone in the comments of a newspaper article (I know, I know). They stated that the Pill and condoms were 100% effective at preventing pregnancies when used correctly. I asked him where he got his figures from. His answer - "Personal experience".
I replied "How did I get pregnant? I stopped taking the Pill, tracked my menstrual cycles, and made sure I had intercourse during ovulation."

Since it was an article about the scrapping of the baby bonus, I think he assumes I am a single mother who ended up pregnant after my contraceptive device failed. THROUGH MY OWN FAULT, OF COURSE.

Ask him if he's been tested for impotence before he gets too confident. Make him think.

I have a feeling my comment won't get approved because I used words like menstrual and ovulation. Even if it does get published, he'll probably accuse me of getting pregnant on purpose just to cash in on the baby bonus.

Because I totally did. Can't you see my plasma tv from there?

It doesn't matter what articles get posted on the SAHM website/FB page, SOMEONE will have a problem with it. An article about cord blood donation? Nooooo, you get shat on by all those who believe delayed clamping is better. Breast feeding? People who bottle feed get butt hurt. Bottle feeding? Breastfeeding advocates go to town.
A personal story by someone who, after exhuasting all other options, chose to put their child on Ritalin? Oh you took the easy way out, your child is just badly behaved/eats the wrong foods, blah blah blah.

Opinions are like assholes. This is the only thing that gets me down in my job. Thankfully, we have mostly wonderfully supportive fans who appreciate the time and effort that goes into researching and writing articles and running a business.

In my groups, it's always the same 5 people, so it's easy to ignore them.

Only problem is this is my job, I have read all the comments and moderate them :o/

Facebook actually deleted on of our posts AND banned our social media manager from FB for 12 hours because someone complained about a picture we posted. I'll see if I can find it.

It's always, always been that way in online parenting groups. I don't envy you, Melly.

Oh, that's rough. I don't envy you either. I got tired of the women in my FB group and stopped visiting.

Can't find it. It was a funny/OMG picture of a toddler who had been put down for a nap, but had then pooped, taken of their diaper/nappy, painted the room with their poop, then fallen asleep on the floor. Most people were "YES, this has happened to me, I can so relate!" but others were all "GROSS, that person is a neglectful parent, someone should call DOCS."

And yeah, someone reported it, Nicole got banned, and had to make another FB account so she could do her job during the ban.

The perks of my job outweigh any negatives though. It does come with the territory, but sometimes I wish more people would subscribe to "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."

^ Although if that were the case, I probably wouldn't have a job. Ha!

You are the mother of a toddler and a kitten, though, so casual observers may be forgiven for their misinterpretation. Don't you fall into their trap.

Midnight. Alarm goes off 6:40am, I started work at 8am. I got a reprieve though - Josiah has a cold and is staying home from school, so I didn't have to do the morning rush :oD

I don't think she's all that cute, but I think that's because I have the most adorable little girl in the world and nobody else can compare ^_^

Need a qualified babysitter in T'ba? We have a voucher going in our auction, current bid only $10. https://www.facebook.com/photo...
Reasons why I love my job #572 When they need someone to take a shift on short notice, I can put my hand up even if I have both kids and Josh is still at work. No need to find a babysitter etc. :oD
