It only works if the waiting is real. If you knock and open in the same second, they notice and the rule means nothing.

1·30 Aug 2026·on Every diaper change with our crawler is now a wrestling match

Have you tried changing him standing up? Once they're pulling up, lying down is the fight. Pant-style diapers made it a two-minute job when our son was that age.

4·26 Jun 2026·on Every visitor says our one month old looks exactly like my partner's father. I can't see it

0·11 Jun 2026·on Partner works Saturdays, I don't. Saturday alone with our son has become my favourite day

Why guilty? Does your partner mind, or are you assuming? Ask. Plenty of people who work Saturdays are glad someone else has the toddler.

3·3 Jun 2026·on 14 year old says he wants a game design degree. What do those graduates do afterwards?

Batch size is the question I hadn't thought of. Two of them list 'placement partners' as a row of logos with no numbers. Will ask for the list in writing.

3·20 Apr 2026·on Last day of class 8, and he came home with the whole class's names on his school shirt

Buying another is the plan. He wants this one framed. It's the only shirt that still fits him.
