BecI was chatting to one of Kid3's friends in the kitchen the other week, and he was saying that he helped his mum in the garden now and then. 'I find it kind of boring,' he admitted.And while I was weeding today, I was thinking how there is a bunch of things like that in your childhood, isn't there? But it's still good to have those experiences, even the boring ones, the chores. I didn't really love gardening as a child either, or makig food, or practising piano – I would have rather been reading or playing with my pets or hanging out with friends.And now cooking, gardening, playing music... they're skills I have and ones I've grown better at myself through practice, and more importantly, I love doing them.When I spoke to the friend, I reassured him that he might come to enjoy the gardening later and he smiled (because he is 14 and later is forever away, isn't it?)<a href="https://aus.social/tags/parenting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#parenting</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/conversations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#conversations</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gardening</a>

PeterMy eldest sang "Colors of the Wind" at her very MAGAT high school tonight for the talent show. No one vetted her intro clip where she said she wanted to do it because it was excellent social commentary, and no one vetted her background that got projected up on stage. As a parent, I'm both very proud of her, and very twitchy about how her Monday will go. <a href="https://mastodon.coffee/tags/Parenting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Parenting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.coffee/tags/Resistenza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Resistenza</a>

Mike DolbowFound out yesterday that my kid is texting on the reg with some random "kid" (supposedly) that she doesn't know in real life.If this person is who he says he is, it's mostly harmless. He doesn't even live in the area. So I don't want to come down too hard and risk that it drives her into further underground/hidden comms.But if he's NOT, I'm worried about sextortion or some other scam. If other parents have advice, I'm listening.<a href="https://mapstodon.space/tags/Parenting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Parenting</a> <a href="https://mapstodon.space/tags/Teens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Teens</a> <a href="https://mapstodon.space/tags/OnlineScams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OnlineScams</a>

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:This is wildly surprising. And perhaps offers a tiny sliver of hope?One of the bills opposed would have required “emergency” removal of transgender children from their parents.On the floor, Representatives SJ Howell and Zooey Zephyr persuaded Republicans with their speeches.

Martin RundkvistA memory. My early-teen daughter told me she didn't need The Talk because they had good sex-ed in school and on YouTube and she knew everything she needed. I told her "Good, I just need to check that you know a few things".1. Who decides if *you* are going to have sex?2. Who decides what sex acts *you* are going to participate in?3. Is it OK to stop in the middle of having sex and say "Thanks, I'm done now, let's go for pizza"?And she did in fact know the answers. ❤️ <a href="https://archaeo.social/tags/parenting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#parenting</a> <a href="https://archaeo.social/tags/sex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sex</a>

Rocketman- got up late - didn’t find daughter - assumed that daughter had gone out with my wife. Turns out she hadn’t. - assumed that daughter had gone out with her friends - said friends ring our doorbell, asking for daughter - 🤔🤔🤔- check daughter’s room. Doesn’t contain daughter. - mild panic - check sister’s room - check more thoroughly - find daughter asleep in bed, at 11am 😅<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/parenting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#parenting</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/teenagers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#teenagers</a>
