✏ Rules
- DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
- No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
- No antinatalism struggle sessions

One thing that really shows the limitations of capitalism is when both parents are sick. We were both down and out last weekend and there's just no one to take over unless you have grandparents willing to help out or can arrange and pay someone. It's almost worse being sick over the weekend because you have the kids with you the whole time and need to try keep them entertained whilst feeling so flat.
Give me the communal groups to offload the kids to.
