WinnieWinkle

My youngest granddaughter has eczema and her doctor recommends a daily bath but no soap. Not even the super mild kind. They use what's decribed as a "gentle cleanser". One thing their doctor said the whole family should be avoiding is any soap that is marketed as "anti-bacterial".

Sadly I have to agree with you - I guess I can cope if they go with negativity but I do draw the line at ignorance, And if we're going to be facing yet another purveyor of lies, lies and more lies then I am officially out.

I read speculation here that ABC wanted her to stay and tried to 'sweeten' the deal. If that's true then I guess it's possible ABC does want to go with toxic. If not then hopefully I am worrying for nothing!

I can't answer your question but you answered mine! I watched this movie the other day (thought it was pretty good as far as these movies go) and I wondered if he was connected to THE Bridges family but forgot to google it. He can act and I thought he was kinda cute .

If I got to decide things this is the way I'd go. If they insist they have to have 5 hosts all the time I'd still prefer it if the 5th host wasn't a permanent one. Try people out for awhile and see how they fit. My fear is that ABC wants the clicks and the attention that someone toxic can bring to the show. If that's the case "my" show is gone for good.

I don't remember this episode but this description annoys me as Raj knew perfectly well that he and Penny didn't actually have a one night stand as he was the one sober enough (barely) to remember what had actually happened. Was he just showing off to Emily that he could have a fling with Penny or did the writers forget the details I wonder.

What magically happens the day a kid turns 18? I find this attitude very problematic. I can agree that the younger you are the more traumatic it might be to have to testify in court about anything but especially, of course, about things related to family. I have a very hard time justifying denying a 17 yr old the opportunity to speak up on their own behalf.

I don't really have a dog in this fight. Most of what I know about the court case I know from this forum. But for me what has stood out in most of the conversations I read about the Pitt-Jolies is quite the contrary in terms of who is being held to a higher standard. And that bugs me excessively.

Maybe, but wouldn't it have been classier to agree with Jolie that they needed a different judge in the first place?

Why do you think he agreed? The idea of the judge having a conflict should never have been an issue in my opinion. It sounds like he (Pitt) as banking on getting away with something more than a little shady but figured he needed to look good in case it didn't work out.

15 may be getting up there with regard to having an au pair but most of the people I know who had live in help for their kids (not many!!) had them until the kids were at least 12 or so. Personally for me it was the teen years where I could have really used the extra help!

Re the Judge in the Pitt-Jolie case I do have to wonder why of all the gin joints in all the world they had to go into the one where the judge had pre-established connections with Pitt. That seems massively unethical to me.

Thinking it over if ABC hires her not only will I not be watching The View I won't be watching ABC. Over-reacting? No, I don't think so!

If that were to happen I would never watch again. And I would be so disappointed if some of the co-hosts currently on The View stayed.

And if it's set in a public library you need the Mayor or one of the council members constantly trying to undermine the Chief Librarians decisions and of course keep trying to Cut the Budget.

I'm betting these venues also have no smoking rules. Is that also discriminatory? We're in a pandemic that will never end if people like Clapton have their way.

It's true about the guys but Merrilee's sister is also anxious to get her into a relationship and her fellow student even gets her onto a dating website. This one was on today and so far it's the only Christmas movie I've PVR'd that isn't going to be getting deleted! This one is a keeper. Just watching A Christmas Miracle - so far so good but what the hell?????!!! When did Barry Bostwick become the nice elderly man character in movies?

She's edgy with everyone at first but it improves pretty quickly with the magic of Christmas and a small town. What is killing me is she isn't exactly in to Christmas (standard not gonna have a tree thing) but then before you know it the house is decorated within an inch of its life and there's a wreath on the front of her car. Mmmkay.

Just watching Hope at Christmas - not bad so far but if they explained why the lead character had such a huge chip on her shoulder I missed it and the grandmother's house oh my! An absolute mansion that was being "looked after" by the neighbour. That's a big favour keeping a house that big and fully furnished in such excellent condition! And it features one of my pet peeves - pre-teens who still believe in Santa. IME anyway this is just not realistic.

Yep! Still love it but have a few problems with it (for example kids don't usually go to see Santa on Christmas morning!) that said what I do appreciate is no hot chocolate, snowmen or Christmas cookie baking!

What bothers me is all the coverage of the space flight is mostly negative and not once did I read anywhere, especially from the jokey latenight naysayers that along with Bezos Wally Funk finally got her chance to go into space.

Steve Harvey. Can't even bear commercials with him on it - the mute button is a handy tool.

Oh wow - by the time my kids were 12 I was way more confident as a parent and I hate to tell you what I might have said to the busybody neighbour! But when I was a younger woman and mother of younger kids someone making a point of coming over to lecture me probably would have reduced me to tears. Did she expect you to hug her and thank her for showing you the One Correct Way to Parent? In a roundabout way this reminds me of another peeve of mine: young newly marrieds who think they have all the answers to a Long and Happy Marriage - no, no you do not. Step off the soapbox you're just embarrassing yourselves!

This may have been my first one as well. Certainly one of the first. Definitely set a high standard. I can watch and re-watch this one along with Love at the Thanksgiving Day Parade, Window Wonderland, the Mrs Miracle movies and Nine Lives of Christmas any day, any time 🙂.

Those are issues I don't think you need to have kids, or be around kids, to hold opinions on - the circumcision debate alone is one I remember a message board I used to be on getting VERY heated over several times over the time that I was a member. Up to that point I had had no idea that it was even something most adults who didn't have male children gave even a passing thought to. Boy was I wrong about that!
