The Experienced Mom

Mom of 6, foster mom to 3 (so far). Not perfect — just experienced. Real-life parenting advice. All credit to God for the wins.

(also some Florida politics!)

@fwmarqix This seems appropriate, but I found it disconcerting to hear my surgical team planning their next golf game during my procedure. Focus, people, focus!

@tallsnail Yep! I just add these to my Walmart grocery order every few months. Easy peasy.

@karol Firefighter/Paramedic in Florida. Less than 2 years of school. Starting pay 60-70k with lots of quick upward mobility. Departments are all going to a 24-on-72-off schedule to a side gig is very attainable. Many guys make 200k within 15 years.

@iWomansplainer My 2 year old boy loves cars, monster trucks, magnatiles, books about fire trucks and tractors, his balance bike and a soft folding couch

@itsme_urstruly It's helpful to keep having kids and perpetually have a toddler in the car with you to point them out.

@AbbyJohnson Babies are removed from moms at birth EVERY DAY for being drug-exposed. I guess it's not "her body her choice" in that situation. So hypocritical.

@TRHLofficial Yep. The first stop on the tour at Appalachian State was the "black-only" space. We were done real fast.

@PaulGoldEagle DeSantis already did this...

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I'm not convinced that Keir Starmer is overly worried about British children's safety.

@JayCollinsFL It seems that the needs of authentic Floridians matter much less than those that have come here more recently from other states or countries. It has affected the quality and affordability of life in so many ways, from education to housing to our shared values.

@RationalPurview Love this graphic 🔥

@SpeakerJohnson Thank you for this!

2 favorite things he said: "It's your money, not the government's" and "they're your children, not the government's"

I'm on a mission to see all of the candidates for Governor and report back to my mom friends. Today I met @JayCollinsFL and heard him discuss his "Live Florida" plan in Winter Park. My impression 🧵

[The Experienced Mom @keeli810]

I'm glad he's fully supportive of the @GovRonDeSantis property tax plan.

@MomKrill I saw a study recently that showed that raising the ages for car seats actually affected the fertility rate because people couldn't fit that many car seats in their car.

@RonDeSantis I thought everyone cared about housing affordability? My 21yr old son just bought a home and property taxes are a huge part of his payment. Don't we want people like him to be able to own a home and establish a family and plant roots in a community? Seems like a no-brainer.
