BACK OFF, THX!
Please Don’t Parent My Kids Like They’re Your Own

An anonymous writer recently spent a day on the beach with a bunch of other families and watched a little enviously at how they all functioned as a unit. Until… “two of the toddler boys began having a loud, aggressive disagreement over one of the beach toys. And before I could make sense of what was happening, the mom of one of the boys sprang into action. She separated the boys and scolded not just her son, but the other boy too, before putting them in time out. At that moment I knew that if the cute communal co-mothering relationship also comes with co-disciplining, I would have nothing to do with it.”

I feel like people will have big opinions on this one.

TRUTH VS. TIKTOK
Wait, Does Disney World Really Have a Dress Code? Here’s The Deal

“The idea of anything being free in Disney World is almost laughable. The theme park is known for being a budget buster,” writes Morgan Flaherty. “And it's because of this mentality that a certain type of video has started going viral on social media: videos where guests flaunt free outfits they've gotten from Disney World gift shops because their previous outfits had broken Disney World's dress code.” Don’t get too excited, though, and read what Morgan has to say, first.
