Hi! My almost 3 year old is a genius. I am not biased lol, her teachers tell me she is incredibly smart and fear they are not going to be able to help her progress as she should. Now my husband is a genius so I’m not surprised with how smart she is, but I am an average person lol and I’m wondering if there are other moms in this situation.
Firstly I’m looking for preschools in Marin/Sonoma county that are more equipped for smarter children. Her current teachers have her doing kindergarten curriculum.
Also any moms that have experience raising incredibly intelligent kids, and any advice on how you kept up with them?

As a former gifted kid, I just want to say that gifted kids are special needs in their own way too. I hope you can try to look for extra support outside of school too. It takes a lot more work to build a mansion than a single story Spanish style, though they both have charm and value!! Good luck ❤️

What part of California are you in? I would get her evaluated and come up with a plan from there

I’m not sure if it’s convenient for you or not, but one of my son’s preschool teachers suggested to get him into Mirman School. As I researched they are so good!
Check it out. Good luck to you and your little one ❤️
I didn’t sleep well last night because my daughter is teething and she was up all night. This morning after everyone was up I asked my husband to take the kids so I can get some sleep. My son is potty training he needed to pee he ran to the toilet but didn’t reach in time so he peed on the bathroom floor (this was about an hour after I asked my husband to watch them). I heard my son go to his dad who was watching tv and said daddy I peed on the floor my husband responded “go to your mom tell her to wash and change you”. My son did exactly that I got up and bath him and changed him after that I got ready and went to do grocery thinking that my husband cleaned the pee on the bathroom floor down stairs(we have two bathrooms). When I came back from doing grocery I went into the bathroom and saw the floor was covered with pee. I went to him who was still seating watching tv and asked him why didn’t you clean the pee off the floor he responded ”oh you didn’t do that”

Is anyone else just sick of being the default parent?
I understand my partner works but the weekends he’s home. For context he has had 3 days off this weekend already not once has he got up with our baby (we have 2 children) 4 year age gap.
I do both bed times, wake up with both of them, make sure they’re fed and cleaned while he plays his games to “unwind” while I’m getting wound up.
His mum comes up and acts like I’m the one who should be doing everything and acts offended if I ask her son to do anything. And tonight!!!!! He was awake while our child was waking up crying. He didn’t help he actually waited for my sleep to be disturbed and then just said oh are they ok? Like he wasn’t awake the whole time!!!!!!!! I’m sick of it personally

I have a toddler who’s really afraid of trying new foods. She’s 29 months old and it really gets me down. Has anyone been through this and does it get any better? I really hope it does.

Ok i feel really bad but i have no one to vent to. Lately ive been finding myself frustrated with my husband. I feel like he’s not as helpful as he used to be. He works over night so he can stay home with the baby while I’m at work but all he does is sleep and wakes up to feed her when she wakes up and than goes back to sleep. Luckily she sleeps a lot during the day so he is rested. Where as me, i go to work, do laundry, cook, clean, do my homework, fold laundry, put it away, pack his lunch etc. Today i left some used bottles on the sink to wash when i had time, i swore my husband told me he took care of the bottles. I just walked passed the sink and they are just sitting in hot water and soap 😡. Also he has not been so supportive during my panic attacks and anxiety and tells me o just need to put it behind me. I feel like we are disconnected but he says he doesn’t feel that way. I feel so alone. Sorry for the long vent! Thanks for reading.

I just need to vent I’m on my fucking period and my boyfriend works and im a sahm mom. He slept all day yesterday because he works 12 hour shifts Monday-Thursday so he slept all day on yesterday and he still fucking sleeping. My thing he fucking knows how bad my periods get I’m in so much fucking pain and having to take care of my son is so fucking hard right now I’ve been in tears for hours. I don’t have normal periods my cramps are almost as bad as when I had Braxton hicks. I love my boyfriend but right now I want to hit him with cast iron skillet.
