To ask if you’re mumsnetty enough to be on mumsnet? 😂

[notmumnettyenough]

I don’t think I am so I’ll start and if you want to you can share your own mumsnet ‘failings/crimes’ in the comments 🤷‍♀️😂

I am not married
I am a SAHM
I don’t shower every day
My showers are at least 15 minutes long
I can’t drive
I don’t own a house or have a mortgage
I do things with my child even though they won’t remember it
I will have a big age gap between my children as we’re not planning to have another one before the first starts school
I am still breastfeeding
We co-sleep
I am not no-contact with either of my child’s grandparents
I enjoyed Baby Sensory
I don’t like wine
I don’t spend all my free time cleaning/tidying
I don’t mind making my partner lunch
I haven’t been to a wedding as an adult
I enjoy the toddler stage
I can’t make a chicken last multiple meals
I start buying Christmas presents on Boxing Day
I keep cards
I don’t limit screen time
We always go food shopping together
Me and dp always go to bed at the same time
I take my child with me when I meet up with friends
I don’t mind if the house gets messy/there’s toys everywhere as my little one plays
I feed my child food that I know they will eat
I parent as child-led as possible (if it’s not safe or harmful to anyone then I step in but other than that I encourage independence)
We don’t have a dishwasher or tumble dryer

There’s probably more 😂

I don’t have children.

I now await the usual “But why are you on MUMSnet then?”

Nope.

I'm on benefits
Can't drive
Have a council house and won't ever give it up or own a house
My kids eat UPF all the time and sugar

I'm probably the MN antichrist but I've been here 20 years 😂

I like my DH.
I drink wine without asking if anyone thinks I have an alcohol problem.
I love ultra processed food!

Everything I do seems to be a big no no on MN. I definitely don't earn the MN 6 figure salary.

I don't use the "d" prefix. Just say husband, partner, daughter, son

I'm an American, so I definitely don't fit in here.

DS is five and we co-sleep
I am mid-forties and only have a £10k pension pot
I was a SAHM for a few years and didn’t miss working or adult company
I don’t need ‘me time’ in the evening
I don’t have a joint bank account with DH
Our finances are not pooled
We are not equal partners in our marriage; he gets to do what he wants and I fit in around him (and that’s the way it will be until I am in a position to leave
I am size 12 and consider it slim
DS has no hobbies, goes to no clubs and has not had swimming lessons

A chicken does one meal so I should be banned from MN

Oh, and I fucking love Pringles!

Great thread!

-My DH doesn't have a mysterious hobby
-I wash the bowl my dog eats his biscuits from in the dishwasher (😳)

• my kids aren't particularly high achieving - in fact both my eldest have just about scraped through their GCSEs and I'm not especially worried (they are happy and well adjusted)
• I work part time and have no intention of ever going full time even though my kids are teens.
• I've never fallen out with a friend over hen night plans.
• I'm not bothered if someone parks in my spot outside my house.
• I don't know anyone who gets Botox
• I get on very well with my neighbours on both sides

There are probably lots more!

I don't have children & neither does my OH.

My OH doesn't have a super outing hobby or a stressful job.

I sometimes allow my washing to get "darked on".

I answer my phone to private numbers.

I answer the door even if I'm not expecting someone.

I have never bought a large chicken,let alone feed thousands for months on it.

While I'm not broke, don't have mental health or relationship issues, I'm not naive enough to think it couldn't change in an instant.

I enjoy weddings.

Nope.
Financially, I don’t do everything in ‘joint pots’.
If dc wants to go to university, I won’t be obsessing about Oxford or RG.
Smokers don’t bother me.
I won’t charge adult children ‘rent’ or expect them to be grateful that they still live in their family home.
Never insisted on all household tasks being 50/50. I have more days off than dp and like certain things done my way. So we have our own ‘ jobs’ round the house and we stick to them.
