jfc. this caption should actually state that babs LOVES the juicy
time few moments she spends hanging out with her kids, between them finishing their 4.30pm evening meal, and them being banished to their bedrooms at 6pm.
she can "wang on" about it all she likes, but it's very clear it's all just for content. babs prefers her kids at this age because - unlike at the toddler stage, which she absolutely hated - she can distract them from asking her "difficult" questions about "grown-up" topics by turning on a movie and shoving them a packet of sugary snacks, bribe them to leave her alone with plastic tat and banish them to their bedrooms immediately after tea, to ensure she can prioritise her precious netflix time without them. i don't think she needs to worry about them reaching a point where they "don't want to chill with their mum" - which, by babs' definition, refers to ethan sitting across the other side of the room on a separate sofa, watching tv while he cuddles the dog, and ignores babs - but more so that they will no longer comply with her enforced toddler bedtime routine and her own "slow moments" slumped on the sofa downing sugar and watching tv without them will be cut short!
