2on Fruit break at school and the cut apple comes back brown and untouched
Bought guavas today, so Tuesday is guava day. Pomegranate is too much peeling at 6 am, sorry. Maybe on weekends.

Will try the salt water dip on Monday, a friend says it works better than lemon. Fingers crossed.
1on Fruit break at school and the cut apple comes back brown and untouched
Whole apple: she says she can't bite into it because of her wobbly front tooth. 🤷
4on School sent a question bank for every subject before the half-yearly. Does he need to do all of it?
ours sent one for class 4 too. my daughter did the first ten pages and declared it done 🤷 still deciding whether to argue
2on 1 month old only sleeps in the car. any good slow loops around jubilee hills?
Opposite problem here. Car made ours scream, washing machine knocked her out. Spent a lot of evenings sitting on the bathroom floor next to the spin cycle 🤷
honestly the dog sounds better than half the 'projects' parents end up doing for the kids 🤷
1on Both our jobs finish late without warning, and the caregiver leaves at 7
Ask the caregiver if she'd do one late evening a week for extra pay, fixed in advance. Ours said yes to Thursdays. Not perfect 🤷 but it covers the worst day.
a ground is only as good as the games periods. ask how often the little classes get out there 🤷
2on He can only fall asleep holding my earlobe
my 9 yr old still reaches for my ear when she's sick 🤷 so no promises. we tried a soft cloth with a satin edge for a while, maybe 50% success
0on Pulls himself up on the cot rails at 2 am, then can't work out how to sit down
Practise sitting down in the daytime. Hold him standing at the sofa and gently bend his knees till he plops down, make a game of it. Ours took about a week to get it and the night standing stopped soon after. Or it would have passed anyway, hard to say 🤷♀️
0on My 4 year old will only eat from his thatha's steel plate now
Buy a second plate and put a dent in it. Problem solved, until he notices it isn't THE plate.
1on Teacher called. My son and two friends have been copying a classmate's tics
Did the teacher say whether the boy's parents are okay with other kids being told what tics are? Some families want that, some really don't. Worth checking before you explain it in detail.
1on Our 1 year old has worked out that my car keys mean I'm leaving. He hides them now.
Wait a few years. Ours hid my laptop charger before her school concert so I 'couldn't work' 🤷 Very sweet, very inconvenient.
2on If we move to the LB Nagar side, how do working parents manage nursery at Vidyanjali Grammar School?
Not from LB Nagar, so can't tell you about this one. When we were looking at nursery for my daughter, most schools on our list finished somewhere around noon, and almost everyone we knew with two jobs had a daycare or a nanny for the afternoons. I'd plan for that and be pleasantly surprised if it's longer. Also two years is a long time, offices move again 🤷
2on Partner's office is moving near Mehdipatnam. When does Priyadarshini High School take KG children?
Not a parent there, but I drive through Mehdipatnam most mornings. 8 to 9 around the flyover and the rythu bazaar is slow, so if you move, live as close to wherever he'll study as you can 🤷 Rents on that side aren't much lower than Madhapur anymore either.
0on Would our son still have evenings for football at V.D.Prasada Rao Memorial High School, Saroornagar?
Same. I've started asking for an actual number of minutes. The answers vary a lot, and one school just laughed.
2on Would Gowtham Model Schools in Meerpet work for two brothers going into classes 4 and 5?
Is the plan to move closer to Meerpet? Asking because it's a long way from Tolichowki, and a daily bus ride that long for a 9 year old would worry me more than two pickups.
