We have a real hot tub. My son and his friends use it as a splash pool in the summer, and me and my gay DH occasionally watch the sunset with a glass of wine with the bubbles on. I couldn’t give a tit what mumsnet think. I love my life.Not council but guilty. My stepmother said it’s like step toes yard with a hot tub and everyone says is it a real one and are shocked to learn yes it is not a bnm blow up special. Not my fault I have “hobbies”

I remember a thread on Mumsnet where a woman was being awful about her little girl (I know that's 35% of all threads, I'll narrow it down!). Her child had an Elsa dressing up dress and was playing in it, it came time to leave to go to a family BBQ and her child wouldn't change/had a tantrum, so they didn't go to the family BBQ and op was very upset that her daughter had ruined her day/everything and embarrassed her. I was thinking pick your battles, take her out in the Elsa dress what's the big deal!sounds like me
mines a combination of having one of those mothers who thought a daughter was for dressing up in little outfits and showing off. The amount of times I’d dress myself all proud and be sent back to change because the shirt didn’t go/was for best/too scruffy. I also don’t like restrictive outfits/seams/tight/waistbands. Again probably from being dressed up and having spend the day itching.
so generally I wear loose black trousers and a vest top with a fleece. Easy, comfortable and no thinking about whether it matches
one of my greatest achievements as a parent is letting my children pick what they wanted to wear from practically day 1. Got my own back on my mother who was traumatised by me letting dd out the house as a toddler in a 70’s brown and orange flowery t shirt, with a pastel striped dress over and cat patterned tights, AND I told her she looked amazing rather than send her to change.
I now have two adult DD’s who have way more fashion and body confidence than I ever did. My mother is still traumatised. Shorts for a pub meal, make her get changed into something “nice” Doesn’t she have a nice dress?
A toilet thread really brings out the weirdo obsessives on MN. There are, apparently, so many unwritten rules about public toilets. I’m sure they’re started by the toilet troll and it gets them all frothing talking about weeing themselves while the “interested” OP is probably being all gross and trolly. 
I've just spent 2 hours in the hot tub recovering from a night out last night. Luckily I've taught my kids how to turn the shower on etc, so from my hot tub, with wine obs, I could hear that they are adequately cleaning themselves. My DH rather selfishly was out at his outing hobby, think balls, so its good I've taught my DC to be self sufficient when in my dirty sex tub
yeah that’s pissing me off too. They’ve gone past gender critical now to practically demanding toilet door genotyping to prove you don’t have a Y chromosome. Even external female genitalia doesn’t count as you could still be a man with a dsd.A toilet thread really brings out the weirdo obsessives on MN.

They really hate men and anything that could be even slightly male coded.
I've never had a hot tub, I don't even like baths, but my parents have a sauna in the garden. We call it the sex shed.
Am sure a few days ago we were talking about number of sexual partners. Just seen Simply Red Mick claiming he slept with three women a day. Wonder if any of them were N*ddy.
It must've just been a puff of dust on the third go.
Surely he’s too old for Noddy? Also too famous. Mick Hucknall probably doesn’t know who Dean Gaffney is - although he did date Martine McCutcheon who famously vomited in his dreadlocks, causing him to cut them off. Dreadlocks on white men are never a good look anyway.
That’s just bleeping daft. I saw Elsa in Tesco the other week - and instead of thinking “dreadful chav”, I just thought “aww how sweet, she’s living her best life”.
As a side note - we don’t negotiate with terrorists.
I remember one woman who’d spent 2 hours sobbing and shaking on the pavement as it rained - begging her 2 year old to let her strap him into the car seat.
That tit simply wouldn’t fly with me (poor, large, northern) - it would’ve been a firm hand to the chest and clipped in. No discussion, no negotiation. bleeping wet-wipes. Although obviously my kids are scarred for life having been treated in such a manner, but thems the breaks.
I bought my 4yo niece an Elsa dress (£7 from Tesco) and, no kidding, she wore that dress pretty much every day until she was 7. I’ve got photos of her wearing it over swimming costumes, school uniform, jeans and hoodies etc. She loved that dress so much. My sister is crafty and has added a bit of Elsa to the patchwork quilt she is making. Niece is now a tween and alternates between goth and punk, very retro girlThat’s just bleeping daft.

and wouldn’t be seen dead in an Elsa dress.
Same re seeing a child in any dress up outfit. It's so cute to see.That’s just bleeping daft. I saw Elsa in Tesco the other week - and instead of thinking “dreadful chav”, I just thought “aww how sweet, she’s living her best life”.

Again, same re the car seat. Like teeth brushing. It is non negotiable. You won't do it yourself/behave while I do it? I turn into bad cop.
Do we have an ‘overweight daughter’ troll?
When she talks about her daughter being bullied, upset, called names, not invited to peoples homes etc she does it (in my opinion) so gleefully. I feel so sad for the kid but she seems to be delighted by it.
There's a definitely a big daughter troll. Low hanging fruit really on pro-ana Mumsnet.
We went away with friends once and their toddler was going through a teeth brushing resisting phase. They took advantage of his outraged screaming to get the toothbrush in and said ‘the more you scream the more I clean!’
