For me, it’s having my TV mounted to our chimney breast. I know that it’s a faux pas on here 😏

Formula fed
give the kids crisps/choc for snacks sometimes
Expected my mum to want to help me out when I was pregnant with my second

I don't know. Not giving a shit what is and is not considered a mumsnet sin maybe?

My son’s dinner had no protein source in it. Worried I’ve ruined his life chances by not ensuring a good macro split.

You definitely have. Mine had to do their own tea this evening because I was working late and it was a shop bought oven ready lasagne. We are both going to MN hell 😂

I don’t change my bed sheets every week and as a family we quite often share towels… which don’t get washed after every use.

elledee412 · 22/10/2024 20:44

I’m American 😂

I don't work and am not remotely worried about relying on DH for income.

I don't find ordinary small talk "rude" and "intrusive".

I sometimes go to social functions I don't really want to go to because I actually dare to believe that sometimes you do owe people your time and company.

Gonegirl7 · 22/10/2024 20:46

I’m a SAHM and therefore don’t split chores or childcare 50:50

RampantIvy · 22/10/2024 20:49

I answer the phone and the door.
I welcome unexpected visitors.

OMGitsnotgood · 22/10/2024 20:51

I like giving and receiving hampers as gifts

66babe · 22/10/2024 20:56

I like my grey walls .. curtains .. sofa .. cushions .. rug 🤨

AdviceNeeded2024 · 22/10/2024 20:57

I have a feature wall… in more than one room! 😁
I let my dog sleep on the bed with me if she wants to.
I drink a glass or two of wine in front of a film on my own occasionally, and I still function and haven’t signed up to AA yet.
I wear my bra more than one day in a row and use a towel more than once before washing.
I bleach my toilet once a day.
I answer the door, although sometimes wish I didn’t as it is a cold caller 50% of the time 😂
I am usually 5 minutes late.

Sure there’s more… 😂😂

Edit - There’s more!!

I love fabric conditioner and use it on everything. I’m particularly loving the new comfort conditioner with the matching booster liquid 😌

  • I'm not my step kids biggest fan
  • my DS vapes and I don't nag him about it

Mine are old enough to cook for themselves and I watch them eat mostly carbs with a side of carbs for their dinner. And I don’t care.

I have an Alexa in most rooms

I wear skinny jeans

I wear high heels

I put mascara on my lower lashes

What, wait? You're not supposed to put mascara on your lower lashes?

camelfinger · 22/10/2024 21:05

I get on ok with my parents. They’re not “lovely” nor am I NC with them.

RampantIvy · 22/10/2024 21:06

I like weddings.

Ooooh that's just too much. 😂

I wear heels
I still cook and do laundry for my children even though they are capable of doing it themselves
I get on well with MIL

coxesorangepippin · 22/10/2024 21:13

Only washing bedding once every fortnight month

I like weddings.

I love weddings!

Can't get over how miserable Mumsnet is about them

Celebrating my friends/family with my other friends/family, dancing, drinking, what's not to like?

Nope. Cardinal sin.

It also smudges

Newsenmum · 22/10/2024 19:54

Metro tiles are bad? Why?

I think the complaint is they look like a public toilet
(I'm quite happy with mine - the bathroom, downstairs loo and utility room all have them! )

Me too!! Especially the child free ones!! And I don’t mind getting a hotel, paying for a cab, paying for drinks in the evening. I have even been known to travel abroad to them - but if I can’t, am happy to decline without any handwringing or animosity from the bride and groom!

Gowlett · 22/10/2024 21:23

Toilet brush
Co-sleeping

Gowlett · 22/10/2024 21:25

coxesorangepippen, yeah bedding here too!

Anothernamechane · 22/10/2024 21:28
