@DisaffectedPod That made me laugh. So true!

@DuckieLouise @KeturahAbigail How about this: each family member who walks in the door has a sense of being grounded and comfortable again. For some this is because the home is ordered. For others it’s because there is food in the kitchen. And for others it’s because Mom is available to help or listen.

@DuckieLouise @KeturahAbigail Sorry. Wasn’t meaning to sound like a failed VP candidate running for an election. Just constrained by the character count.

@KeturahAbigail I think truly managing the home in a way that centers each member of the family has been neglected as a means of study and applied effort for so long few people have ever experienced it enough to know what they are missing.

@SirNathan52 @shagbark_hick This arrangement exists in public schools in rural areas in Oregon and Washington as well. Schools don’t advertise it, but it’s always worth asking about.

@polderfamily @FreshRstdCoffee I loved getting to watch her process.

@hannahspierMD Boy did you ever nail it.

[DreadfulSpiller @DreadSpiller]

@chionogirl Clever.

@pnwguerrilla I am so impressed with the discipline of these young men. Complete control over themselves and their internal reactions. Massive display of masculine energy there.

[DreadfulSpiller @DreadSpiller]

@CindySinor Interesting question. The replies were fun to read through.

[DreadfulSpiller @DreadSpiller]

@marissaComstok @MrsCMFrancis “the birth is really a blip in your relationship with your child” SO TRUE.

@TARSRel0aded Lots of transparently resentful and out-of-touch comments here, but the insightful comments from other parents interspersed here and there sure made this post valuable. Thanks for sharing.

@shagbark_hick @Margare34105613 But I would also read your novel. I hope you’re writing one.
