Popular Post Kbo February 2, 2019 Popular Post Share February 2, 2019 That video makes me want to slap the smug expression off Austin’s face. “Families come here and spend a week with their kids and realize they actually like them.” WTH? And the part about making sure mom and dad aren’t working too much-um, people who don’t have reality shows have this thing called JOBS to put food on the table for the children we supposedly ignore and barely recognize. Condescending asshat. 29 Link to comment

One thing that I know about myself as a mom is that being with my kids 24/7 isn’t healthy for any of us. 36 Link to comment

leighdear February 5, 2019 Share February 5, 2019 I went to summer camp in Texas. We had shotguns, bows & arrows, axes for chopping wood, machete's for setting up camp and any number of horrifyingly deadly weapons at hand. Ages ranged from 8 to 17. And there were no parents there, just counselors. They were trained how to use the items safely, because it was their job. Something tells me the parents that freak out about a few hand tools, sleeping bags and no Wi-Fi probably don't go there anyway. 8 Link to comment

But there's no way I would have let my kids attend a camp run by young counselors where shotguns were part of the experience. I wouldn't freak out about at all, because it would never happen. 28 Link to comment

Christina87 February 23, 2019 Share February 23, 2019 I don't think it's awful that they're leaving town for Giddyup's first birthday...he doesn't know it's his birthday and they can celebrate later. However, I feel most parents wouldn't do it. They'd choose another weekend, unless it was some sort of work trip. Honestly, all this does is confirm for me the kind of parenting Michelle does. If Joy thinks nothing of scheduling a rare trip during her son's first birthday, that tells me that Michelle also thought nothing of attending "conferences" during her own kids' milestones. 12 Link to comment
louannems February 23, 2019 Share February 23, 2019 The hashtags suggested they are attending a couples retreat. Fundies love their retreats, don't they? All those people that think and act and practically look alike. 6 Link to comment
Lisa418722 February 23, 2019 Share February 23, 2019 The #dateyourspouse hastag seems so sad to me because they weren't allowed to date and get to know each before they were married. Also a fundie couples retreat would not be a fun, relaxing date. I realize Giddy won't know they missed his first birthday (or come home late), and a lot of people have a party on a weekend because they have to work, but I feel they should spend his first birthday with him. 19 Link to comment

The way Joy's caption reads is like they just decided to take a random vacation, just the two of them, when it just happened to be their son's birthday. However, I think there is trouble in the Joystin marriage and they're trying to fix things with this couple's retreat, which just happened to coincide with Gideon's birthday. 8 Link to comment

MichaelaRae February 23, 2019 Share February 23, 2019 I have no issue with parents going out rather than celebrate a 1-year-old's birthday on the day. It's not like the child remotely understands the concept or what day it - hell, you could probably get away with them being completely ignorant to what day is the actual DAY until they are what, 4, 5? Later? When do they actually know how to read a calendar? Just tell them that day is their day. 😉 But that conference agenda makes me want to cry. 8 Link to comment
