Image source: eohiggins Alex Davis: I hated doing things like this when I was a teacher as most would be lovely scenes like this and then some would break my heart. One kid drew a person and I asked who it was expecting it to be mum and they me. It made me wonder what was going on at home for them to consider me their safe place. Opened up a can of worms in the neglect this child faced (no obvious stuff before that, had clean clothes and food etc so parents had been sneaky in hiding it on the outside) but I got social services involved and the grandparents ended up formally adopting the child with no parental contact. Very glad I asked questions about the picture.

Funhog: I had to look this one up. It's a book called "The Story of Life" by Chris (Simpsons Artist). It's a parody; there's also a page about how babies shed their baby legs and grow their child legs..

Image source: IDontSpeakWhine Ansi: I feel this. Being social and outgoing to their teachers, other parents and my kids friends is exhausting sometimes. Trying to blend in as a "normal" parent when I really don't know how.

Image source: kan_pos lenka (edited): lol. As a mum this one is equal parts funny and frustrating. My kids ask me random things at very inopportune time. It's like their brain goes "I want to learn how to make bread" and so their mouth goes "Mum.... can we make bread on the weekend?" Meanwhile, it's 7pm on Tuesday evening and I am trying wrangle a toddler who is naked and wet and streaking through the house screaming "I don't want the cowboy pajamas". 'We'll see' is honestly the most mental bandwidth I have at that point. Saturday morning child has forgotton about bread and quite frankly, so have I. Its now 5pm on Sunday afternoon, I'm making dinner and kid suddenly remembers bread. F**k. I dont have flour, Kid doesnt have two hours to let it rise because kid has to go to bed. Cue screams of "you never let me do anything". Sigh. Breath.

#38

Image source: maryfairybobrry Mabelbabel: We do pizza night. I set out a selection of toppings, stretch out the dough, and the kids choose their own toppings-amount, placement, mix of cheeses etc from the selection. It's not uncommon for them to change their minds once theirs comes out of the oven. 'I don't want mushrooms on my pizza' even though they put the mushrooms on it themselves, saying "great, I love mushrooms!" but 20 minutes later, mushrooms are devil food and they wanted sweetcorn like their brothers pizza has. It still all gets eaten, just not by the person who created it sometimes.
