The revolution the feeds the children gets my support!
✏ Rules
- DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
- No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
- No antinatalism struggle sessions

Had some hard parts this week where I was overwhelmed (with temper tantrums) but I handled it all pretty well. Some highlights are that we went on a mini train, to a new zoo, a car collection, and the kiddo had his birthday.
I am trying to let him do more on his own, but he wants to do everything!
That sounds like my kids' dream week, and that's a lot to fit in there. Sounds like you're doing a great job if you can handle so much close together
Thank you! I am trying to get out there even though a lot of these places are a little outside my comfort zone.
The car museum was incredible though and I would have never gone on my own. I’ll try to attach a photo
My kids would love this place, but I'd spend the entire time trying to get them to keep their hands off everything
That was our issue. He wanted to drive every car. He was staring at a VW van and said “ I want to drive that” and one of the workers came over and said “Do you want to go in?”
He got so shy and pouty and I was thinking, my god you just missed your shot little dude. You almost had everything you wanted.
Anyways, they had a car there that was just for kids to touch and climb around on. And a small area with toy cars.
I’ll stop talking about this place now, It just exceeded all expectations.
