@Adam - At this point, I do at least three "I would never do that as a parent" things myself every day. So I really oughta lighten up on other people. But I don't.

Don’t worry about being judgemental, I won’t be a dad until march and I keep a rolling log of bad things I see parents in my head. It’s my “I would never do that as a parent” list.

Seriously, what’s wrong with some people?

Part of the fun of being a parent is passing judgment on other parents.

isn’t this one of the things birth control was going to allow? That only those who can ‘afford’ many children will have them, while those who can’t, don’t have to.

Except of course that if it is notably fashionable to have large families (let’s see, Brad and Angie have 5 now?), none of that sort of theory will matter.

Aspen. Really?:0

Of course, my name list includes Regent, Gentry and Elsinor, so I’m really not allowed to be judgemental.

And about the rule shouting mom- that stinks. I hate those moments in the classroom when I have to get the students to play a game or do a “fun” activity the prescribed way over their own creative ways so it gets done almost on time. Sometimes you just have to let go! And, usually their ideas are better.

My dauhter’s name is Harper. I think some people find it prententious but it’s not. It’s literary.

“Hennessy, Maccrae, Sietta, Aspen, Nixon, Rodden, Montana.” Too much. The phrases that come to mind are “trying to hard” and “pretentious” . . . not that I’m judging.

I guess I can imagine bringing reading material to the park if my child were nine, but I have seen people bringing magazines and newspapers to the park with their toddlers before. That strikes me as delusional and dangerous?!
