"So that was a street festival with a fat: she ate a lot, she barely smiled, she sat down whenever possible and complained when she couldn't, she ignored her baby for long stretches of time and just kept shoving food at her (waaaaay more food than a baby that age needs or should have), and she didn't even seem to think it might be a good idea to try to clean the sticky food residue and dirt off her baby before the baby ate again with those same sticky hands." This is a great summary of every fat cow mom.

That poor kid.... The dumb bitch doesn't consider what a gift she has.

Fat moms are disgusting but you're super creepy about kids and come off as super judgmental. This story is just you bitching that a toddler's hands were too dirty. "gotta eat a peck of dirt before you die"

I was really stunned. I remember taking Older to a convention when she was around that age and just spending most of the day trying to amuse her and make sure she got to play and walk around as much as possible, but the fat didn't even seem to care. Just kept shoving food in front of her.

It would be nice if he could. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed. Before I met her and realized she's a pig I felt awful for him, how devastated he was/is at the thought of her leaving and taking Baby with her, but yeah, now I think thy'd both be better off.

I thought it was fascinating, course I'm not around little kids all that often. And the idea of this pig letting her kid get that dirty and doing nothing about it is just nasty. I mean if my kid was that rancid after a day at the fair I'd at least find a bathroom to give the tyke a little field scrub but that's me. I've been told I have a small thing with germs! 😷

Well, thank you!
And yeah, I was horrified. I have a little germ thing as well--I once decided to count the number of times a day I wash my hands, and lost count after fifty and that was around noon so I hadn't even gotten into something like making dinner yet, where I wash them constantly--but even without that, and even knowing that babies and toddlers can be kind of gross, I was really shocked. Sure, the kid needs a bath, but you should be able to clean her up right here, too. You should have been cleaning her hands and face after everything she ate, ffs, that's just what you do. I can't count the number of times I've done things like wipe snot off babies's noses with my bare hands because it was about to reach their mouths or something (and then washed my hands, of course), you just...you keep your baby as clean as possible and worry about yourself later. You don't leave a little one with sticky dirt everywhere and shrug like there's nothing you can do, that's what baby wipes and tissues and such are for.
(Babies are gross, lol. It just doesn't seem or feel gross because they're so adorable and sweet, but objectively they can be pretty disgusting.)

That's crazy. My son just turned two, and the only time he's in the stroller is when we're somewhere crowded or we have to get somewhere quick. And he hates it everytime. I mean, toddlers want to walk and move, right? Absolutely bizarre.
[–] DorothyMantooth [S] ago
Yes! And I always figure the more practice they get at walking, the better. It was a busy festival but not crowded, if you know what I mean, and with four adults to help keep an eye on her she was fine when she was finally allowed to walk around--like I said, her mother never bothered to chase her, but her husband or mine or I always did, and everyone she toddled past/in the booth she managed to walk into, lol, was full of smiles and kindness.
I'm still just so confused by the idea of taking a child in diapers anywhere without wipes. My husband and I talked about it on the ride home and couldn't figure out what the thinking was there. Even when they reach that age and have some "regularity," you know, there's still always a chance. But I guess cleanliness really isn't a thing for fat moms.

Yeah, that's just gross. I always have wipes and an extra diaper even in my small purse when we're just popping down to the corner shop. You never know what can happen.
