Opinions you have that aren't popular on mumsnet

I would say

Pineapple on pizza is decent

Step mums can be awesome 😁.

And also..... Some people can drink more than a thimble of wine every other Christmas and not have a drink problem!

Adult children don’t have any ‘duty’ to their parents just simply by virtue of being Theo child.

Teenagers are just like any other age group- some good, some bad

Private schools shouldn’t exist

@ComtesseDeSpair

Special needs aside, parenting is only as difficult and consuming as you want to make it. I’ve yet to meet an adult who wasn’t toilet trained and only ate chicken nuggets. Honestly - by the time they’re 32 nobody will know or care whether they were breastfed or formula fed, had a WOHM or SAHM, were weaned on organic finger food, had regular attendance at baby sing-song classes, or were allowed lots of screen time. How we all eventually turn out is mostly nothing to do with the minutiae of parenting. Just do your best, don’t be actively abusive or neglectful, and your kid will turn out just fine. Stop judging others for what you perceive as shortcomings, and be a bit easier on yourself for your own.

Fabulous!!! 👍

Shower gel does get you clean

Ah don't tell me MN has taken against this. Of all the things...

What are the naysayers using? Bleach?

The solution to a lot of parenting problems is “Parent your fucking child”.

Teachers work bloody hard.

I have 3 loo brushes and we eat Mcd's

Also, I think books take up far too much space. It’s annoying. I’d rather have a whole library on my kindle and free up the shelf space for something else more useful.

And the absence of books on show would be equal to the number of fucks I’d have to give for anyone who judged me for it.

That you shouldn’t use the “long” name on your child’s birth certificate if you actually don’t like that name and have no intention of ever using it.
Registering your child Archie instead of Archibald does not resign him to leaving school at 14 and a life on the dole.

I'm not very keen on dogs.

I love fireworks and have even been known to let them off in my garden.

There shouldn’t be any homework for primary school children.

Children won’t grow up to be damaged and resentful adults or fail their GCSEs if they don’t have their own room

I love socialism.

I love staying in pyjamas all day.

I don’t think trans rights conflict with women’s rights or that gender neutral/unisex facilities are inherently dangerous.

Marriage is patriarchal no matter how much you think you’ve chosen it. Changing your name to your husband’s is unfeminist.

Not all men are abusive it controlling
Trans women are women

@hicoolcatsandkittens

Tories are scum

That's massively popular...

I love fabric conditioner

Another here who loves living in England . I want to reclaim the English flag from the racists. What's wrong with loving the country you love in?

Primary school is childcare

Dogs make your house smell bad...and they really don’t need to wear clothes

That it’s ok to take a pram or buggy onto a bus (clearly not using the wheelchair space though)

@hicoolcatsandkittens

Tories are scum

I agree they are!

I don't like cats

Trans women are not out to get you

That you can’t predict, prevent or insure against every possible hardship in life before you have children
