I love how I repeatedly told my father in law not to let my daughter root through the toy box because she doesn’t want anything out of it anyway and he keeps picking her up and taking her to the toy box no matter how many times I tell her no and tell him she doesn’t even want anything out of there anyway. At first I told him “only let her get one toy” so she picks one up and he is still holding her over the toy box then tries to put her over the baby gate so she can grab more. I’m sorry but you aren’t the one that has to pick up all these toys. You aren’t the one who has to put them back. He never picks up toys. Everyone wants to get the toys out for her out no one ever wants to help me pick them back up. The fact that I said not to let her get anything out of the box more than 5 times really pisses me off. You may be her grandparent but you aren’t her parent. So now I have mass toys to pic up on top of the toys she already had out from this morning
My daughter likes to do this. I donated alot of them and I switch them out weekly for new toys to keep her interested. I also taught her to help me pick up her toys as well when she is done with them. Parenting isn't easy at times. :)
I understand you completely! Every single day I had to pick up toys. My boyfriend and I got tired of picking them up since they don't like to pick them up when I say it's clean up time. So we put all their toys away in a big trash bag🙃🙃🙃 Idc
So they only have like 2 toys out.
She has a little table that has toys and books on it plus she has her little people house and trucks
Omg. Some of these comments are making me wanna BARF 🤢 I completely get you! It really never ends and some people JUST DONT GET IT. Fuck it! Wait till someone trips and then tell’em...YOU SEEEEEEE, PICK IT UP.
Did you see the one who was being disrespectful and now can’t handle the heat of being told what she said was rude and disrespectful.
@courtney017, oh God! Seriously...but then again she has a 17 y.o so he probably really pissed her off today 😂🤪
Maybe you could downsize her toys a bit so it's not so hectic for you to clean up every day. I know a few families that will literally divide the toys into a few different piles and basically swap them out every few weeks. That way the toys always seem new and you don't have them all to deal with!
@madhatter, that’s all I wanna get rid of is her baby toys lol. I usually always donate clothes and what toys she doesn’t use. At least you can understand where I’m coming from lol
@courtney017 I definitely do. I've been a nanny for a long time and picking up a whole boat load of toys at the end of the day always stinks. If you can make the mess more manageable for yourself, do it! Toddlers are definitely going to explore and make big messes but it doesn't have to feel like a tornado hit every day.
@madhatter, exactly! And to think someone commented on here saying they feel sorry for my daughter lol. I understand some women with bigger houses not being able to pick up all the time or if their kids get a toys out it doesn’t really look messy but our place is small so when she gets ALL of her toys out it looks crazy in here 😂😂😂
If you don't like picking up all the toys then keep only a few that you think she will play with and sell or get rid of the rest. Tell everyone don't buy her any more toys
I don’t mind picking them up I just mind when people get them out for her but don’t want to help put them back up or at least try to get her switched over to a different activity
No he doesn’t because he gets them out and goes straight to his room. He doesn’t play with her really. Me and my husband play with her but her grandpa doesn’t. He just gets all these toys out and goes straight to his room. He will come inside from smoking a cigarette and she will grab his hand and take him to the toy box (she does this with everyone even when she has 60 toys out already) it’s just something she likes to do. But the only time he comes out of his room is if he has leave,eat,smoke, or go to the bathroom
And even if he did it’s still not an excuse to not clean up the mess you made. Having toddler isn’t an excuse to keep a messy house. We are already trying to move and I’m constantly cleaning up after everyone else all I ask for is a little help
@taylortarrant, she reported me 😂😂
FTM problems...
So I've made it pretty clear that I want to buy my daughter her fist Halloween costume. Her babysitter/nanny keeps saying she wanted to make her one. I told her yesterday that I wanted to find her something that my SO and I could dress up as a family. So I told her I am going to get it. She just text me and said 'not trying to step on your toes but I bought her two costumes'. She does this all the time. Anytime I want to do the "first" things with her she immediately does it. It...
Baby won't bear weight on leg
I have a walking 10 month old and she has been extra fussy yesterday and today. Today I noticed she didn't really want to crawl, she would just cry until I came and picked her up. After I fed her, I tried setting her down to play with her big sister and she just started crying and wouldn't put any weight on her left leg. She will put weight down on her right leg but then just cries until you pick her back up. I thought maybe she just didn't want to be put down (as ...
So we got in super late last night. Had to carry my daughter to bed.
She had the nerve to try and wake me up at 7:30am saying she wanted breakfast. Smh (She wanted me to fix her a spread)🙄
I told her to choose some cereal. I'll fix her a bowl. Of course there wasn't any cereal that she wanted today 😴
I told her spoiled ass to figure it out and I went back to sleep 😂🤣
She ate an eggo.
Something's up...
My SIL, H, called me about an hour ago and said "I'm coming to pick you up at 5:30 for a girls night out and you can't say no! I also invited C (other SIL) and she's coming too but that's why we're going out earlier because your brother didn't want her out very late."
Your poor daughter.
