My son is in second grade and ha, chosen to not to say the pledge of allegiance (his own decision because we talk about how the country won’t take care of its people). He says he teachers never force him, but subs always do claiming we’re the greatest country in the world.

This is exactly what I think whenever I see him doing it

My father uses a knife and fork to cut off the crust, eat in pieces, and then continues to use the knife and fork. It is so embarrassing whenever we’re out.

Had baby fever for about 2 years before my husband got his and we initially wanted at least 2. Had our son and the fever never returned. I didn’t want to have another to appease society and end up with a child that I honestly would have regretted. I’m now happily one and done with an 8 year old. When things aren’t going well, I have to remind myself and especially my husband that he’s a child.

They still do this actually. Not quite as cool as when we were kids, but my son brought home a coupon last year for his pizza!

I did this at work recently when my coworker brought me a pack of leftover hotdog buns. Texted my husband that I was having a veggie hotdog, but the fact that I didn’t think to do it until 42 is somewhat embarrassing.
