Took my 7 yo to Disney and decided we’re not going back 😂 Where have you gone with your kid that you loved? I’m thinking Rome, Paris etc.. he has typical little boy interests

Come to Texas if he’s got typical boy interests. 🤠 Space center in Houston, rodeos all over, stockyards in Ft Worth, and plenty of dinosaur finds and museums (goes along with being rich in oil fields, I guess?)

What about a cruise? We did that when our girls were younger. Kids clubs allowed us to have some adult time and the consistent accommodations helped the girls feel more at ease. Can see lots of locations as well.

We are going to Paris and London in April with our 8 and 6 yos. I do think Rome would be great and it’s on the list. I also want to do the Galápagos Islands but I’ve told it’s better when they’re older (13ish) and strong swimmers. My 8 yo loved NYC last year and we need to get to some national parks as well.

Yes. We got them scavenger hunt books for each city so to them it’s also an adventure to see all the typical sights. They learn French in school (not that they’re any good) but I think it gives them perspectives to see other cultures. In London we’re staying with friends who also have kids.

Go to London and spend your time at the London Transport Museum, and or the depot at Acton.

Went to Paris, London, Bruges last summer with our 6&8 year olds. They loved Bruges and London. Paris too, but a bit less (could also be it was a heat wave, and pretty miserably hot). Bruges is kind of a little storybook medieval town - and just right for kids. London has just a ton of kid friendly activity and food.

We’ve enjoyed mexico - Mayan riviera, and also PR with them. Good mix of beach and adventure/culture.

Headed to Costa Rica this year.... looms amazing.

Also skiing is always fun!

One of my friend was asked to resign because she got pregnant . They specifically told her that they have strict policies and need complete commitment and you are not fit for the current role owing to your health. They have a king rule from management side and treat their employees as daily wage labor . Very bad HR and management

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

I (36F) am married to another woman (34F) and we have a baby (5moF). We split all childcare, cleaning, meal prep, errands etc fairly evenly and it works well. Maybe she cooks more than I do bc she likes it, and I clean more bc I need to have a clean house. My friend (35F) recently took a business trip and literally put a binder together with instructions for her husband re: daycare drop off and pick up, what to feed the kids, when to take out the trash and so on.

Our 5 month old started daycare about 5 weeks ago. We’ve already had to keep her home for 2.5 of those 5 weeks due to catching various illnesses (croup, rsv, brinchiolitis, etc). Both my wife and I have been sick most of that time as well (gotten it from the baby). Wife is thinking we get a full time nanny for the next 4 months to help the baby build antibodies. Cost aside, is this feasible / worthwhile to go thru the effort / finding the right fit, only for 4 months?
