My son’s school shared some photos of him playing in a tutu and having fun, and I usually like to try and buy whatever it seems like his favorite things are at school to have at home too. I’m considering buying him a tutu because why not, just was curious….would you do the same?

Probably wouldn't buy a tutu for my child of any sex unless they express they want one.

Go for it! Sounds fun!

Absolutely!! Such a fun way to express yourself :)

Not just a tutu. Get him the whole mini kids separate clothes rack and start collecting costumes one by one.
Including tutu. Then you’ll be prepared for any Halloweens or book week days. My son has like 6 so far including Mario and Luigi some days he wears it just because 💁🏻♀️😂 he hasn’t expressed like in a tutu but he does paint his nails w me when he sees me paint mine

No just bc even if he really enjoys it there it could be one of those things he’d use there and not touch at home or vis versa .

My husband wore a blue tutu and always played with it and he turned out just “right”. He even use to paint his nails 😂 If his happy and you want to do it, why not😊 do what works for you guys. I don’t think kids understand the meaning of “just for boys” or “just for girls” I believe as parents teach kids that and well I kinda feel when they are that small it shouldn’t matter. Just because your kids like opposite “gender” things doesn’t mean they will become gay/lesbian or transgender or whatever it is. Support your babies and show them love, support & safety. If we don’t give them those things, the world wouldn’t either.

dress up is just that. dress up! maybe he really loves dress up so why not get a tutu in every color and a bunch of other fun dress up stuff :) i bet he’d go NUTS and play with it for hours!

It sounds like he enjoys dressing up, which is so lovely for children’s imagination. I would start a dressing up box for him, we go to the charity shops to find things.

In my experience what ever he plays with at school he doesn't play with at home. He will stop playing with it at school if we get it for home. At that point it isn't new and fun anymore
my baby daddy went mad at me as he found out i was ‘using his child maintenance’ to buy nappies from Aldi/Lidl instead of buying Pampers. Valid or is he being as ridiculous as I feel like he is? 😂

I’m Belgian but lives the UK. Everyone around me is taking a week off of work to potty train their child.
As in, they’re using a week of precious annual leave for this, and then they don’t leave the house for days, quite literally locking themselves inside with their kid bum-naked, and « potty train ».
NO ONE does that where I come from. Potty training is seen as a longer, more organic process.
If you’re not British, can you say whether most people take days off to do potty training where you come from / where you live?

My sister is due soon and will need me to take care of her baby when she gets back to work.
I’m a SAHM and I take care of my two kids. One of them goes to school so during the day would be just my baby and hers and often her kid will stay over the night as some days she works during the day and others during the night. She’s married and together they clear 260k/y so they aren’t pinching pennies.
I’m not really looking to charge her for taking care of her kid but maybe to cover some part of the food that I would be cooking for her kid as let’s be honest he will have to have 3 meals and 2 snacks and when we go out I can’t just get things for my kids and not get something for him.
What do you think is a fair amount?

How are you guys handling having to send your kids to daycare or having a nanny?
I’m a first time mom and I’m terrified of anyone watching her but me. My daughter will be four months when I go back to work but with how the world is today and all the viruses and sicknesses I just don’t trust anyone.
