hi, TL;DR, does the father ACTUALLY spent more than 1 minute with his children? This seems as if she’s handing instructions to a nanny instead of her husband.
It’s that or the wife is a complete neurotic. Either way, poor kids…
It’s called humor people
Oh hey, it’s an interdimensional traveller from a universe where humour doesn’t exist, and even documents that contain the phrase “the ULTIMATE spoon” are completely serious.
Has this husband ever met his kids?
Probably not : P
Have you ever met a sense of humor?
Either she’s a horrible nag or he’s an incompetent good stereotype direct from a bad 90s family sitcom.
And by the looks of how messy and dumpy that house looks (paint chips missing, trash bag in the middle of the floor, brrom not put away, clothes strewn all over the couch), she has no grounds on which to complain. Looks like a white trash family to me.
Supposed to be..
. Incompetent boob stereotype…
Damned autocorrect
LOL, Ralph, with SIX young children in the house, even Martha Stewart on speed wouldn’t be able to keep the paint unchipped and the house in order. And I don’t think this is being neurotic, nitpicky, or treating her husband like a boob. What it is is a pseudo-malicious*, joy-filled little screed of a woman on the brink of a break from her kids. It’s simply introducing him to the “joys” and “relaxation” of her daily life of being a mom. You’d think he’d know some of this stuff but maybe he works long hours (or a couple of jobs) to support his family of eight on his one paycheck and so generally considers his non-work hours to be his own.
*From her one snide comment about how he made her get rid of all but two sippy cups, I get the sense that he tried to criticize the job she was doing as a full-time mom of six. This letter seems more like a “Wait until you actually LIVE my life before you judge” note. And she’ll be laughing into her pina colada with actually zero interruptions.
Lmao Elagie gets it, could even pick out what drinks she’s going to have by the bottles, Elagie gets it.
Maybe don’t have six kids who are obviously acting out because they aren’t getting enough attention?
Good point.
Yes! Thank you!
agreed
agreed
Yes. That’s a brilliant point. Well fucking done, you.
A three year old having tantrums and bickering with her sister about stuff doesn’t equal acting out…if the four Girls described here, only Penny and Quinn are annoying. I’m not even a mom myself, but you are way too judgemental here. My nephews are seen as good kids by most, but bedtime is a drag every single time, No matter how great everything was throughout the day. But the rest of the day was still worth it. If things really weren’t going good, do you really think she’d have enough energy and humor and time left to write her husband such a silly letter?
Lol. I thought Penny was three, and Quinn was older, but no, Quinn is the threenager and Penny is still a tiny baby. The two oldest, Jack and Ella, aren’t even mentioned here. She’s awesome from the Look at her Profile.
Meh x 4.
Well this was a wasted day.
And this is why I’ve made sure my Uterus stays Tennant free, forever. Fuck. That. Shit.
Tennant free. Fuck that. If David Tennant wants in my uterus, I’ll let him.
*tenant* you meant tenant, made all the more funny as you capitalized it as in a proper name.
Not really a grammar nazi, I just thought the reference was funny.
All I can think is why are you coddling these kids’ poor behavior? You will eat what a goddam make. end.of.story
You commenters are worse than the children described in the letter. What a bunch of whiny little babies. The letter was funny. IF you don’t like it, shut up and move on. Gawd you’re all annoying.
If you don’t like our comments, shut up and move on.
*starts the slow clap* ^_^
No, I’m not having that. Getoverit is right – you shut up and move on, you whiny baby.
it took some google stalking but I finally found out her kids’ ages:
Jack, 15, Ella, 12, Bailey, 9, Harper, 7, Quinn, 5, and Penny, 3,
Mom’s pretty fucking arrogant and disrespectful. Unless Dad is completely absent, in which case she should be long gone already.
