You should probably teach your toddlers that their stool belongs in the in the toilet, not the kitchen.

Why are these things $200? These are plywood or MDF. The baby tax is worse than a wedding tax.

There are also some good ones on Etsy that are cheaper. That’s where we got ours from, some small company in Lithuania. It was self assembly, but so simple it shouldn’t be a barrier.

I ended up building my own. The kids loved it then we gave it away on Nextdoor. Was a fun little weekend project if you have the time.

Lol at the people raising their own children. Get some servants and a governess.

Having the time to raise your own children is the mark of status in the modern age.

As DWW said years ago - in the 2020s having kids at all is the real flex.

Why would I want to waste my time dealing with children when I could better spend it somewhere they are not?

They're not so bad. I followed foo's advice of parenting and just explained to my toddler to use her words, be respectful, etc and magically she is!
