…sometimes I believe that alcohol was invented by parents of teens

@goosehd ha! Gotta be true

@goosehd "no cap"

Cleaning up vomit is one thing. Cleaning it up out of a dead sleep at 3 am is something else.

Also, it’s a process, get the kid out of bed, into the tub, take the pj’s off without smearing puke on their face, change the sheets, put everything in the wash, Lysol the shit out of every surface between the bed and the bathroom. Then they just throw up again 30 mins later.

Not a parent, but there must be some way of rigging a harness to suspend the child above the tub (oriented to suit the prevailing direction of flow) until all noxious fluids have been released.

[EdH]

@ARNC Ahem... sounds like a re-purposed sex swing mate...

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Matt why bother avoid smearing puke on their face and ruin a perfect opportunity for "accidental" retribution for waking you up? ....You're going to wash it off momentarily anyway.

This is why I sleep on the bathroom floor when I have the B.E.S.T. , like a respectable human. I expect the children to do the same lol

B.E.S.T. = Both Ends Same Time. Best enjoyed when the number of sufferers outnumbers the toilets in your home.

@EdH purely coincidental!

I don’t even know how to mod this conversation nor if I really want to

[Matt]

Katie and I had it once, me from the bottom and her from the top, and we had to have the pre schools principal bring them home. Bad times.

[EdH]

@Matt I can only imagine that conversation… very nice of the principal though!

[Matt]

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before but it bears repeating . Listening to my kids eat is the single worst curse the universe has bestowed upon me. I’d be perfectly fine with going completely deaf.

@Matt This is one of those things you don't notice, untill you do and it ruins everything

[goosehd]

My oldest is wearing braces and only exacerbates those sounds. Nails on a chalkboard…

Last week I took a trip to Morocco with my two boys, we did a roadtrip, starting in Marakesh and whent all the way to the Sahara and came back trough the Atlas mountains. Here are some photo's.

I was quite nervous to travel solo with em but It's been a wonderfull experience!

[Giles]
