“So cute, I can just eat him/her up”

Random question but where do all of your little ones eat their food, my son sits at the table on a booster seat, my daughter has just started working in a nursery.she said he would be classed as behind as he’s not sat independently

Bless her she’s just come down stairs and said I hope I’ve not upset you mum it’s just what I’ve noticed at work , me personally I’m happy for abit of info from her, it just made me wounder so thought I’d ask x

Rant - husband doing bare minimum

I asked the husband (rare occasion) to feed LG dinner, I prepped the food and handed it to him whilst I cook. He gave her a few spoonfuls and gave up as she was refusing. When I'd asked how he fed her, he hasn't put her in her highchair (which she's used to and knows its mealtime) and he was feeding her in his lap...
