Yes, you heard it right. I bought my daughter a phone at age 11. Before you get the pitchforks out I have a very good reason. And for the record, it was never my intended plan to get her a phone. Seriously, I thought that she would not be getting a phone until high school […]
Bad Parenting is About to Happen – One More Month of School Left
I have no idea why or how it happens but after Memorial Day, I lose all motivation to deal with my daughter and school. You see New York public school students are literally the last kids in school in the entire country. Even the private school adjourn by the middle of June. Throughout the […]
Statue of Liberty
While my daughter and I were out walking, we passed a Crocs store. My daughter immediately noticed that the giant Statue of Liberty “picture” was made entirely out of little baby Crocs.

“Because I said so” #parentingtips
When I was growing up, we never argued with our parents and I mean never, even as adults. When my dad said do something, we did it. PERIOD!
