Not sure if daddy could step in, he is in the oil industry as well isnt he? He will have his own concerns surely.

long time lurker - but a cycling geek...Boardman bike stuff is mostly sold through Halfords, a quick search and Grabbys shiny new helmet is on the Halfords website!
We are a pretty outdoorsy active family, with the broken bones to prove it, but at the moment I am playing it super safe, no long bike rides, just playing in back yard and walks. It’s about not wanting to use medical staff and facilities even if just for a sprain or broken toe.
She’s so bleeping thick and selfish and why not put a seat on the back for Poppy, or get one of those chariots, my kids loved that.

Trouble in influencer land

Probably because she didn’t get one gifted and couldn’t possibly buy anything herself for her children xx
My 4 year old has additional needs and struggling to focus on anything for more then a few moments and then it gets ripped or scribbled over. As much as I want to teach her things she just doesnt want to and I'm at the end of my tether with it... I feel like such a crap mum when I see all these influencers doing so well with home schooling/ baking / cycle rides etc...
Influencers get paid to fake life, you are doing what is best for your child. That makes you a great mum not a crap one. You put your child first not the picture perfect insta life. I used to look at people like Meldrum and think wow she's got perfect kids, perfect Pat, perfect life but in time you see it's all false, it's built on sponsorship and adverts. They only show what's going to bring in the money, forgetting how to live in a real world.
Maybe it was that pink teddy coat thing they she filtered the tit out of like she does every product
It’s all chocolate coated tit. Please know thT as soon as you scratch the surface veneer of insta it’s absolute disfunction.
There’s are really good interview between my shero Jacinda Ardern and psychologist Nigel Latta about isolation, kids, family dynamics etc on her FB page, if you need some reassurance from someone qualified that you’re doing good.
Bikes again on Lee's insta 
I take it back about the seat for Poppy. Thanks for showing us Patsy.Bikes again on Lee's insta
Firstly, don’t believe a single thing on Instagram. It’s all smoke & mirrors, these people live in the Truman Show with every move calculated. Even the ‘bad/real’ moments are to appear ‘relatable’
Secondly please don’t stress. I haven’t done one single piece of ‘work’ with my 5 year old. is a crazy, stressful time and it’s more important we are all happy (as much as possible in this situation) &healthy.
Even head teachers have been sharing posts on fb encouraging people not to worry about schooling. If your kids thrive on routine & structure great. If they want to sit in pjs most of the day and watch films, embrace it. Every child is in the same position and teachers will prepare & plan for learning gaps when normality returns.
You are trying your best in an abnormal situation and that makes you a great mum xx
Also, this is part of the reason I hate influencer culture. Making videos of how to be a perfect home school mummy after 1 day then changing your mind to suit whatever mood you’re in in the weeks after.
so unprofessional and irresponsible with the following these people have.
Try not to compare yourself hun, I’m in the same position, a child with hfa, spd and dyspraxia, she struggles to stay focused and she can’t write without it hurting, we’ve just been reading and playing games, but the best thing is she’s coping. No ones a crap mum when they’re trying their best x
Who puts a mini skirt on a child and expects them to safely cycle and enjoy themselves??Poor Safiyah almost gave herself an injury trying to hop back up on her bike in Lees last post...
Poor Bertie, i hope they get that cat flap sealed before he does himself an injury.
Why is he locked out in the garden anyway

So the bike is an older model but still around £300 now if bought and also not the size for her if they want it to last. My at the time 5 year old got a 20 inch bike and now at 6 and a bit could prob move up to 24 inches and her seat is not raised near as high as saffys
Who puts kids in short skirts to go on a bike ride? Jeans, joggers, leggings, shorts any will do but not a skirt
Sorry, just saw your comment after I posted the same thing!
If you’re reading here Rebecca please please cut that dogs hair 
he can’t even see properly. At least cut his hair around his eyes! What’s stopping her at least trimming his eyes?
