Exactly. Poppy is going to end up like Edgy if they're not careful... thinking she can get her own way in everything and being spoilt. It's not surprising Poppy thinks it's a game when her Mum is laughing at her for misbehaving. Serves Edgy right on this one, I hope Poppy continues to not get out of the car for her now

I thought exactly the same about the car carry on.....she’s not even 2 be the parent!!
I have 3 and my 3rd is way harder work than my other 2 and rules the roost. We mostly give in for a quiet life and I certainly pick my battles as otherwise I’d be constantly punishing

With toddlers you just tell them what they 're going to do, if you ask do you want to? Or shall we? Is the answer NO!!... Cos they are toddlers going through the toddler state of tantrums and finding their own voice. Tell them what's going to happen , count down and then reward with a sticker or just verbal over the top praise. God you d think by number 3 she would have learned. it's like she s trying to make out how difficult Poppy is.. When she s just a typical toddler

Great minds......I had a screen shot of Unmumsys sport day post but it wouldn’t up load. That’s exactly how to do it x

Completely agree with the criticism of bribing with food. Not a good routine to get into.

I find myself less bothered about it all when everything is fully disclosed
It wasn't an ad post I don't think, it was one of sports day where she couldn't get a pic of her biggest without getting other kids in, so posted a pic of her youngest watching instead. Reb thought to hell with it and posted a pic with loads of kids faces On!

It wasn’t an AD post but unmumsy mum
Eldest son had sports day she couldn’t get a pic of just him without his fellow classmates in it so she just uploaded a pic of her youngest watching sports day where Rebs doesn’t give a damn if she uploads pics of other people’s kids without consent to her followers!

Oh didn't realise it wasn't a #ad. Was reading through one eye before going to sleep and doing a bad job yeah that is shoddy behaviour on her part.

As a stand alone comment then, I'm less bothered when ads are disclosed

I don’t love commenting on other people’s parenting, god knows I am no mother of the year! But what do they expect when they film their lives like a reality tv show and the kids are the most interesting characters? I was cringing all the way through her coaxing Poppy out of the car. I feel like that little girl doesn’t know if she is coming or going and more and more it seems like she is performing for Reb. Really unsettlingly!

I’ve never thought to ask my toddler if he wants to get out of the car?! I just take him out.
What a ridiculous palaver all to get Poppy to entertain the sheep.

6 8 10.......she’s got these down to a T! (I’m joking about 6 )
I find the list odd, if she really followed those pointers then she wouldn’t read tattle would she?!

Point 1 ‘let go of things you can’t control’. You can’t control tattle Reb, as much as you like to throw around the world “police”, you can’t control what people say on a gossip site (bringing you to point 6) !

Organised Motherhood as done some more great stories this morning about Insta Mums and Influencers being "shady" and not labelling posts/ads/AF links correctly etc. Not saying for one second she is referring to Grabecca....!!! You can make your own minds up about that

I’ve been thinking.. do you think that Rebecca will find our comments more palatable if we write them in white text over a white background?
