Feel free to PARP me on any of the following subjects....

[aloha]

Church schools
Caesarians
What lovely people midwives are.

I think you all know my opinions by now!

What are your PARP subjects?

aloha
PLUS you are so wound up that you cant stop thinking about it all day, and you just have to log back into mumsnet to see if anyone posted anything that will make your blood pressure rise again.
oh no, I dont take mn seriously, not me

1 - "I wait on my husband hand and foot, why doesn't he respect me?" threads

2 - "Poor working class children, they have to eat sausage rolls and don't get stories read to them. It says so in the Times." threads

3 - "Please please don't report me, ds has only had 8 organic peices of fruit today, but did manage to hide pureed sprouts in his porridge" threads.

4 - "I have a multiple fracture - should I go to the doctor?" threads.

This study says...
Having a go at health visitors
Members profiles
Men being arseholes for various reasons!!

Oh and Gina Ford

But there are so many and still post!

OMG, MN has got so cliquey, come on this thread all my friends and tell me you agree.

Yawn.

What exactly does PARP mean? I missed it's appearance on mumsnet.

mears - copied and pasted from below:

I'd say a PARP thread is one that makes so so cross your heart races and you lose all your sense of humour PLUS you've said everything you have to say about one zillion times before.

hm - that's the stuff! my particular favourite are the ones where the op gets really snotty if someone disagrees.

Yes, particularly love weaning threads like that:

I want to give my 4-week-old baby scrambled egg on toast with ketchup and a fruit shoot. Tell me I can.

Ooh, yes, of course you can, my babies were on that by the time they were a fortnight old.

Do it do it do it!

Yes, their faces when they taste the ketchup is hilarious!

Errrrrr...you might want to hang fire for, like, errrrr several months? And not wean onto egg, just as a perhaps?

What do you know, mentalist? My babies are all big strapping lumberjacks at the age of five and intelligent as feck to boot!

Loon! I'll do what I want! With whatever spoon I see fit!

Dammit - where do you get off telling other women how to bring up their babies?!

Oh I missed Aloha saying that earlier - sorry.

Breastfeeding

Weaning

Caesareans

Oi!! Soapbox!! I posted a losing it with my kids thread

Better than 'I lost my kids' I suppose

I would like to except Mears from my general loathing of midwives btw.
She is Scotland's jewel and England's loss.

Oh forgot, homework for four year olds.

And school for four year olds, come to think of it.

church schools
why have kids if someone else is going to look after them?
it's only my opinion but nurseries are no better than miserable kennels
gina ford threads
name threads
midwives - except mears
i know i haven't had a baby yet, but i know everything already and will avoid making all the mistakes my stupid friends with children have made
weddings - should children be invited?
any wedding thread that contains the phrase "bridezilla"
help! my child has temp of 120/has just been hit by a car/sawn off own hand with duplo/what should i do? - er get off mn and go to casualty?
my dh is useless about childcare and housework, makes me beg him for money, demeans me in all possible ways, but i won't leave him because he is a good father
private education
picky eaters - you just have to be firm and not give them junk
everything is pretty tip top in my life - why do others find motherhood such a struggle?
london terrorist attacks - those londoners will do anything to get attention

oh so many more...

People who can't afford to have kids shouldn't have them - only rich people should

Mums are the only suitable caregivers a child can have - why nature felt it necessary to require a sperm donor is beyond me.

How can I make £1m in one week?

lol at this thread

Been said before, but any thread with the effing word "Beannie" in it-they are called babies FFS!!!

dropinthe a beanie round here means something rude

I've never been on a beanie thread. I thought they were referring to some class of toy. Like a beanie baby or something?

Tigermoth-have just got your CAT-great idea re cab-not around tommorrow but perhaps next Saturday,eh??

Know Tuam-used to know a chap who lived there too-long story-will reserve for popodom moment!!

Nighty night!!

A beanie is an unborn baby, I think. It's from the same drawer as babydust, babyglue and ickle-wickle pinkie toes, linguistically speaking.

Never read an effing Beanie thread-thought they were referring to impending Brats!!

(See---they really get my goat up!!)

What shall I name the child we haven't conceived yet?
Look at my photo - aren't I fat? No, I am, I'm really fat
All health visitors are the Evil Dead
What's everyone having for dinner?
I caught my DH looking at porn on the net
Controlled crying
My labour was 475 hours long and however dreadful yours was, mine was worse
How can I possibly leave my lying, cheating, lazy DH when I love him so much?
Boden is wonderful/frumpy/indifferent/expensive/cheap/AAAAAAAUUUUUGGGHHHH

Blimey. I never noticed they weren't in the "products" category! I just thought they were some playground fad that I'm still mercifully and smugly ignorant of.

Hmm. Stardust. WTF is that? Where does it come in? Sounds a bit JM Barrie and Wendy.

Hello-Hunkers!-sorry,not emailed you recently-trying to stay off the computer....yeah but,no but,....really!!
