Question for those with multiple kids. Do you agree with if you take one you should take them all or is it okay for a family member just to want your oldest for some one on one time.

@nomli, I lost my mom too. The reason I want to take the oldest is bc she is 15 and pregnant. She is due in March and if I don’t see her over Christmas break I probably won’t get to see her until after the baby is born. Truth be told I do favor her over the others and I need to be better and I think now that I have kids of my own I will be but the whole point was to see her and be there as a form of support during this crazy time.
Well one on one sometimes but I generally do everything with then because they could feel left out.
Definitely do one-on-one. They are so important, as long as you don't always favor one over the others. My last one-on-one with my mom got interrupted by my sister getting sick, so mom promised me we'd have a day together soon. She died that weekend.
@eaj8290, see that's what I thought but my mil is acting like I don't love my younger siblings just bc I want to spend time with the oldest one.
You couldn't find a babysitter?!
Mommas, do you take your kids with you to run errands and go to mundane appointments? On two separate occasions, a doctors appointment for me and today at a car service appointment, someone has remarked "you couldn't find a babysitter?!" It never crossed my mind to find a babysitter. I take my 2 kids with me just about everywhere. They are well behaved (minus the occasional 3 year old meltdown) and one of them is attached to my boob the majority of the time anyw...
One food you love most!
What's one food you can never get tired of eating.
Oh, of course! I'm sure she needs support and some time with just you. That's tough. I hope she gets support from other family members too!!
And favoring isn't all bad. I meant more it's bad if you consistently ignore the others while showering the one with attention, but even just a small convo about some interest covers that.
