Have a great weekend!- Christina
I just read that NY Post article to my son who shook his head and said, “Please stop mom, this is depressing.”
Read the “Stop Sending the Nanny” and laughed because as a Den Leader, I had a mom ask me if it was okay for her to send the nanny to the cub scout meetings. I told her that she could, but that it was ‘unusual’ because the whole point was to bond with your son! We’re talking one hour a week in the evening. Sad.
Great links, Christina! Love this new series you’re doing.
