Confessions of a Mumsnetter

[PlaceYourItemInTheBaggingArea]

I have never ever seen Downton Abbey and don't intend to.

My children have eaten their breakfast in the car on the way to school.
This too^^

And on occasion, breakfast consisted of licorice because hey, it's better than nothing, and one of the DDs was picky to the point of insanity.

and, btw, Workzilla was fab.

But the MoH who was batshit was better!

No I think back to it, the summer before last the Golden Age of CF posts on here!!!!

I don't think there is any age where a child will enjoy a wedding, and really like it when a wedding is child free.

I was really excited about going to the two destination weddings that I've been invited to in the past.

I can't think of a more palatable way to clean my toilet than with a loo brush.

I've never responded to someone with "that doesn't work for us, sorry" and would think that someone was pretty rude if they said that to me.

I have never baked a birthday cake for my children. Every single one has been ordered to that year's specification (Mr Men, Thomas the Tank Engine etc) and collected on the day.

My dh has no hobbies.

I don't like vegans, the ones I know are picky and rude.

I wish people would teach their dc basic manners and how to interact with others.

Not all dhs, dd, ds etc. are actually dears or darlings.

You are not shaming people who cannot afford meat, by saying one chicken is one meal. And than one chicken must be turkey size to last six days in your household.

You are allowed to have more than one wedding/childbirth per family per decade without it is someone stealing your thunder.

I answer the door when someone knocks.

If tradies offer to take their muddy boots off before coming into the house I tell them not to bother, they can't possibly make more of a mess than my two big hairy dogs do.

I judge posters as being "not very bright" on a regular basis.

I don't think I've turned off the TV whilst at home on my maternity leave.(to the point that my son stops crying at the first note of Law and order SVU)
My son falls asleep after midnight most nights.
I can't sleep if he's not in my bed.
I can't wait to go back to work.
I only read on mumsnet for silly threads.
I hate Dsomething.
I hate watch influencers on youtube and couldn't stop even if I wanted you Lily Pebbles
I judge everything and everyone.

My OH has a hobby that he does one day most weekends. I don't think it's outing and am happy to tell all of MN that it's cycling. Moreover, I actually quite like the fact that he does this.

I get utterly bored during spa days.

Oh @SandyMadameMarie you just totally outed yourself, not many OH cycle, soo outing .

I have a loo brush.

I don't drive.

My cats sleep in my bed and get on the kitchen sides, I do wipe them down multiple times a day though.

I usually have to wash my clothes twice because I've left them in the washer to long.

I put on buffets and bake cakes for my partner and friends when they come round, I let them wear their shoes too.

I love my partners family to bits!

I never answer my phone.

I'm fat and I do not give a crap what you think about it.

I often feel very sorry for the men who post on here, or get posted about.

I believe some parents deserve the judging they get about their children in public, you know the ones I mean!

There are many more too 😂

Use bleach
Use a toilet brush
Use plastic
I hated breastfeeding
I hold grudges
I am not a cool wife
I flirt often

And I'm super judgemental

I'm slim and I LOVE IT

I'm vegan.
I only use products that are environmentally friendly/sound.
I have mental health issues.

All seem to be very un-MN-friendly.

We all eat cereal for breakfast
I use jar sauces in my cooking
I’ve never shopped in Aldi or Lidl
One of our toilets not only has a loo brush - it also has a fluffy pedestal mat!

I occasionally get dh to take our dc to breakfast club before school and then send them to the half hour after school club on a day when I'm not working just so I can have more time to myself to get stuff done (i.e. spend a few hours in town or go to a nice NT place without having to listen to complaining or rushing through the attraction just to get to the gift shop at the end). I feel no guilt about this whatsoever.

I’d sooner fly to the moon than breastfeed or use a moon cup.

I was delighted to take my husband’s name when we married.

I don’t care about climate change.

DH does more housework than I do
I don’t care whether jam or cream goes on first

I use bleach and antibacterial wipes.
I don’t recycle nearly as much as I should do.
I intend to take my husband’s name.

I get regular Hollywood waxes.

I have no idea what Zoflora is.

I’ve never batch cooked.

I don't believe there are any real issues with trans women accessing female-only spaces or that children are actually being rushed/pushed to transition.

I really don't think it's a big deal if a dog jumps up at my kids/has bad recall as long as it isn't aggressive.

I can't drive.

I don't understand why people think scheduled/structured activities and hobbies are important in themselves, rather than just through being enjoyable. I don't think kids miss out from not doing extra curricular activities if they don't want to.

I think there are far worse things in life than being lazy or having a poor work ethic. I'd pick lazy and kind over hard-working and unempathetic any day.

I love birthdays and Christmas as well as giving and getting presents.

I don't think it's wrong for a toddler to drink squash.

My personal faves :

I let my baby watch Little Baby Bum on Netflix.

^^

Why is this bad?!

I'm obsessed with Russia, I adore Putin and I'd move over there in a heartbeat if the opportunity should present itself

^^

One more : I CBA even trying to understand the whole trans debate, I'm just not interested at all

I don't like downton or scd.
I haven't trained my baby to self bloody settle and don't care.
I wear an engagement ring.

We could afford for me to be a sahm, and really honestly want to but my DH doesn't want to be the only one with a wage coming in, so I work 4 days a week while resenting my husband for not wanting to support me and outwardly agree with my friends (without children) saying how important it is for a woman to have a career and financial independence when they have a child.
