    Three months ago she was projecting that she should get a new dog ahead of Winnie’s death so she could transition more easily. But not til Donny was potty trained and I feel like she made it sound like that was not that far off. So I thought he was older.

    Good luck with potty training a kid who doesn’t appear to talk. How is he going to tell you that he has to go? Grunt at you? I don’t think that Jen knows the difference between parent trained and potty trained.

    I think the school potty trains them and I doubt Jen is reading materials the school posts. She just does what “works for her.” She has been cold and authoritarian since she had baby Winnie.

    Right.

    I once took an education class & had to observe the teachers in the child development center that was part of the college.

    They had classes from birth to 4 years old. And there was a specific class for the not-yet-potty-trained toddlers in the 18-24 month range. The teacher & her assistant trained them.

    And, when they were trained, they moved up to the next class.

    So, while I guess parents had to be consistent at home w/ what the teachers were trying to do during the day, for the most part, the teachers potty-trained the students.

    I'm thinking it's probably really similar at Donny's & CC's school. The teachers are doing the real training, & Jen is sticking him in a pull-up at home.

    I didn’t mean she read them. I meant that was likely the group mentality at school & those who support the school (Suzanne). So Jen is probably hearing the training advice from her MIL and, since potty trained kids mean no diapers, which means more Jen time, it definitely works for her.

    At any rate it all comes down to an expensive little spa trick. They must casually ask people first how much they’ve been around horses.

    There was movie about 10 years ago with Sandra Bullock called 28 Days. Her character is a rich-ish alcoholic who goes to rehab and there’s a scene at the facility where they are doing the horse leg trick thing for some kind of ridiculous zen reason. She fails but then, upon release from rehab and during a crisis, with inspirational music playing, she walks up to a NYC police horse to try the trick and she does it. She is cured!

    I’m thinking there must have been some stupid movement making the rounds of retreats and the like with this horse trick symbolizing something about letting go or being one with nature or some other symbolic bait for the Jens of the world.

    We joke about that scene every time we pic hooves at the barn.

    *rubs forehead* How the hell does Jen even find these types of camps, seminars and conferences? I saw her stories and the camp looked like it was in a dusty meeting room at the Hyatt. :20130930101758-5e972761: $600 for that crap? Plus room and transportation and required supplies? So what DOES the $600 per person cover? Because I’m not understanding. I’m not understanding.

    She could have done all of this at home but then she couldn’t escape her family and breathe heavily in Instagram clips.

    And she can cut the “gee golly” routine about how awkward it is for her to vlog. She may be a little rusty since she only does it sporadically these days, but there was a point where she was almost a daily vlogger.

    I cannot wait to see the entirety of that craft room/office. Because what I saw made me laugh and shake my head, and that was just a corner. She has to get it under control because she is sliding into hoarder territory.

    It’s funny how she’s now admitting so much, like giving up on being plant-based, that wreck of a room and how she still hasn’t learned her lesson when it comes to these care packages for new targets.

    From what I could see she has so many nice and cute pictures on her memory keeping thing but all the pics she post on her instagram suck.
