    My husband and I are struggling to decide where to send our 4 yo son to pre-K next year. There’s a public school right by our house. Ratings are pretty terrible and he would be the minority (both race and socioeconomically) which I’m not opposed to, but something I haven’t personally experienced. There’s two private schools we are considering but both faith based and we aren’t religious. Great ratings but very little diversity.

    I want to give him a great education but also want him to be well rounded and know there’s a world outside his upper middle class white bubble.

    Ughhh how do you decide what’s “right”?

    I know this is kid specific BUT generally speaking, how do you know when/how much to push/motivate your child? One of my kids doesn’t really seem interested in much. Extra curriculars, school work etc I just want them to be interested in something, anything at this point. Not depressed. Would rather just hang out.

    I find that frequently switching things up can help improve the odds that my kids will actually eat the food and snacks provided. Please send recommendations, with an emphasis on high fiber!

    We are a “less is more” for the holidays kind of family, so we typically like to do just one central gift and maybe a book or some pjs etc. Anyone have any unique ideas for a central gift for a 3yo boy? We also don’t do electronics/screens so looking for something outside that box. Any ideas? (He already has a tricycle and a yotoplayer). Heeelllpppopp

    Heading on Spring Break woohoooooo!!! Looking for family games to play on the beach and at the house. Elementary aged. I'm going to try really hard to be good with my phone and keep it away, so something I would enjoy as well. Does this even exist? Thanks!

    Has anyone driven from Texas to 30A and have good recommendations on how to break up the drive for kids? Good places to eat, even better if there is a playground at the restaurant etc

    I've been a stay at home mom for the past 6+ years, married for 10 and always relied on my husbands job. I want to start making my own money, saving for trips, bathroom remodel, nice jewelry etc. Where can I find a job that allows me to juggle the house work (laundry, meals, cleaning, drop off, pick up, after school classes etc) and actually make some money? IS THIS A UNICORN I'M LOOKING FOR?

    If you have a busy schedule and often find yourself eating on the go, grabbing a fresh and filling meal can make all the difference. Subway offers a variety of options, whether you need a quick breakfast before work or a satisfying lunch during a break. You can explore different choices and see what fits your budget by checking out the Subway menu in the UK.

  • Neighbor dog barking

    We have new neighbors renting the house next door to us. The houses are close together and their dog barking is driving me crazy. It’s off and on all day long (deep and loud). And if we are outside, he barks at us right at the fence. I haven’t yet met this new neighbor….what do I do?! If you’re a dog owner, would you be offended if your neighbor voiced their frustration with your dog?
