No, we only have solid wood ones now, but that tall one fell on my daughter in Denmark.

She was fine, but I learnt my lesson about anchoring.... all of our tip-able furniture is tethered/anchored.

Ok good. I anchored my stuff also.

Where's stretch, she probably anchored her stuff too, being the handyman that she is...

I kind of feel like USCIS should put in big red letters diagonally across the I-129F, "do not plan your wedding until you have the visa in hand".

How long is the stage between walking a few steps between people or objects and full on walking? Curious parents want to know.

For the little turtle, 2 months...

Yes things are anchored. The Tornado is a climber it's a must have with her.

[SAT 9,609]

Anchor Tornado. It's easier

If United wasn't the only non-stop carrier between here and my kid I would no longer use them. Almost EVERY FRIGGIN TIME I have to call them for this unaccompanied minor for my kid (because she's over 12) I have issues. I end up having to call them 2 or 3 times! The last time before this, I didn't, which gave me hope, but now I have issues again. I was like dude, I'm not letting you hang up the phone until this is fixed. He's like it may take 24 hours. (They're just trying to get me off the phone.) So I said "if this is not fixed in 24 hours, and I have to call back AGAIN, what do I get out of this? This is wasting my time because your company can't do this the first time. I understand it's not your fault, you're just an operator and I will talk to a supervisor about it if you want me to to get this figured out." He was like well you can if you want to (and I hear some lady in the background yabbering to him....) So I'm on hold again AND..... They finally get it figured out!! I very nicely said thank you for finally getting it figured out and I really appreciate it. Have a great day!

In my mind I'm also screaming but why does this have to be a friggin ordeal?

I think I should talk to a supervisor anyhow when I go to pick up my kid because honestly, this is BS.

I bet you wanted to punch him, or somebody, in the nose...

And I used the unaccompanied minor service because she's only 13. I don't want her trying to get through security and customs alone yet. Not in a large airport. In Denver I can take her right to the gate. I pay them extra money to make sure she's okay on the flight, to give her peace of mind to ask for help if she needs it, and to get her through security and customs in Canada (in both directions) without issues.

omg you would too

[SAT 9,609]

No I wouldn't lol

So, the nanny, picks up the kid from school. It's the last day, half day. They go to the park. My daughter and this other kid wanted to see if they're in the same class next year. So they take out their report cards to look. And now their report cards are switched.

When I looked at it, I was like what the...six 3s?

She went backwards?

So now I went over to their house, and they're not home...

My kid had perfect attendance

[SAT 9,609]

I just went there again. No-one home. How frustrating.

[SAT 9,609]

This other kid. Honor roll student. But the difference between him and my kid is, his father works in a Fook restaurant outta state, mother and father don't speak English at all. The kids doesn't go to any tutoring or after school. He's doing it on his own. Good kid.

The teacher had a lotta good things to say about him.
