Babies, babies everywhere.




So we stay up until 10. Let Boo eat in her room. Give her knives and power tools. That’s our business, and if you choose to raise your kids differently, that’s yours &#8212; though I fear the day that your kids try to build bookcases without any knowledge of circular saws.
But when Boo’s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had nineteen kidless social minutes last week, and so naturally I chose to spend it dropping by Buddy Boy&#8217;s soccer game to deliver a birthday coffee to Park Buddy. They&#8217;re still in the old neighborhood so we don&#8217;t see them nearly enough, but when we do, it&#8217;s still love love love for our kids:

Not real bugs, of course: it&#8217;s one of those projections where the entire floor becomes a computer screen filled with plants and ants and beetles and cockroaches and ladybugs. You&#8217;re supposed to play the role of collecting scientist: you gently guide the bugs [...]]]></description>

Trust Fund Babies!

&#8220;No No No No NO NO NO NO NO!&#8220;
It wasn&#8217;t a terrible-twokin shouting, either &#8212; it was a mom, and pretty clearly a working parent challenged by a summer daycare break.
Boobaby was inching up the steps to the safe, waist-high slide; an [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today was Dads of Mystery day again at the playground &#8212; that&#8217;s the dads&#8217; group I&#8217;ve written about a few times. As usual, some were ZOPs (&#8220;zoned-out parents&#8221;), talking on their phones or exclusively with one other and not engaging their kids. Amazingly, one dad even managed to read the newspaper while pushing the swing. [...]]]></description>

I took Boobaby to the playground on Saturday, something I hardly ever do. Weekend outings are usually Working Mom&#8217;s purview, but she was (ahem) working this weekend, so [...]]]></description>
