The revolution the feeds the children gets my support!


✏ Rules

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. No antinatalism struggle sessions

Wooooo we just survived a 13 hour car ride as part of our vacation. Gotta give props to grandpa and unc for doing the driving. These kids managed it very well. K2 slept early in the trip then was wide awake for the rest of the trip except for the very final 2 mile stretch where he started to dose off! Saw a lot of windmills. A lot of corn. Plenty of cows. Lots of rest stop creatures.

Also recently did a long trip by train and my Lil guy did awesome! Slept when he should and enjoyed the time with some books and playing

Glad it went well! We just did a similar drive for my kids first vacation and was surprised at how well they did too. Helped to have my SIL along for an extra pair of hands with them.
