in case it's not obvious.. I am kidding.  I'm sure i have posted about most of those topics at some point in my nest life...

I am not wardrobe obsessed. I am obsessed with cute storage solutions that hide how much of a wardrobe I am collecting. Oops.

I didn't mean you!

I know. I was just feelin' guilty. LOL

I roll my eyes at all extremists - for any of the topics above.

Of course, my definition of extreme is likely way different than most!

I voted all of the above, but I'm really just jealous.

I wish I could obsess of any of those things instead of whether or not my children are going to be harmed by their psychotic father, or whether or not my BSC ex-IL's are going to take me to court for visitation.

I'm just bitter and grumpy because these two things are haunting my dreams at night. Ugh.

I'm don't have nearly those same concerns but wanted to echo your sentiment about the jealousy thing.  Sometimes I wish I DID care that much about these things.  But I don't.  And at the end of the day, I think it helps me remain sane.

Can I make my own combination? How about the ones who will lose their sh*t if their kid gets a ding-dong for snack, but then will call someone else a helicopter parent for being too involved in their kids' school. Like it's any less helicopter-ish to try to control what their kid eats at school than to want open communication with the kid's teacher.

I am not talking about 1 specific person, this is just something that happens here all the time that makes me laugh.

*guilty of all of those* but I try to keep my posts to a minimum.

I should have voted all of the above. Because some of the "obsessions" make me laugh. I just want to post "oh yeah, wait until they are teenagers. THEN you will have something to worry about".

I must be getting mellow in my advanced age (30 TOMORROW) b/c none of these make me roll my eyes.

Or I'm guilty of obsessing about all of these.  Hmm.

OMG so true, raising a teen sucks and I would do the 4 and 2yo stage over the teen girl any day...SD is almost 22 now but man our house was crazy when she was a teen.
