My motto is “Moms don’t play.” (The other context also applies: I do not play.) Our third child joined the family with this system in place, and he is, as most third children are, remarkably independent.

Projecting her personal issues on to Moms in general rather than take responsibility and then blindly stumbling on the benefits of having multiple children without acknowledging why her system works.

Thanks contemporary schools system, very cool.

Try this with a single child and see what happens.
