Which one of you has twins? Balty, Soup?
 

Did the parent say it, or did the twins refer to themselves (itself?) in the third person(s)?

That's an extra creepy thought.

It was the dad.

Are they cute girls?

the dad may be thinking ahead ala Earl Woods, and wanting to foster sibling inter-play now, prepping them for a twins-lesbo porno career. There's money in them thar hills!

Fair enough, but my kid is the same size as one twin stacked on the other,* so he'd be OK and he's really mild mannered, so they would be OK. Frankly, these are strange people anyway, but I thought it would be fun for my kid to have someone(s) to play with now and then, so I ignored the other things**.

*I am not discussing the Olsens, so get that image out of your head!

**The mom told me she couldn't breastfeed because "the babies didn't like the taste." Have any of you tasted formula? Also add in some more troublesome homophobic and racist ramblings.... OK, maybe it's best if I just keep my kid away from them after all.

You should have whipped out my breasts and said, "here, kitty kitty."

Yeah, they are pretty cute, but I assume genetics will catch up with them at some point, so I'd say the porno angle is not so likely unless they start young.

Mine or yours? No kidding - I took them some formula coupons way back and said I wasn't going to use them (this is when the Lexling was maybe 4mos old) and her response was a puzzled "Isn't he too young for cow's milk?" or something of that nature.

Handy parenting tips for dealing with the Brangelina Baby
 

Sure, we've clearly missed the boat by not having our own babies named by the ruler of Namibia, but what now? When our children start grappling with the omnipresence of the Brangelina Baby, Slate has the simple answer to life's vexing questions.

• Common Questions, Compassionate Answers:
  
  Why can't I be the Brangelina baby? The first thing many kids want to know about the Brangelina baby is, "Why not me?" Research indicates that children as young as 3 months old are sensitive to their own status. And even the dimmest children know that the Brangelina baby is receiving a lot of attention and praise. Older kids might look at the photos of the Brangelina baby and wonder why they were featured on so few magazine covers or news reports at the time of their birth.
  
  Parents should patiently explain that all babies are special. The Brangelina baby might seem like the most important baby in the world, but it wasn't so long ago that everyone was talking about Violet Affleck, Sean Preston Federline, Apple Martin, or what's her name, Brian Benben and Madeline Stowe's kid. Make sure children understand that they are special, too, albeit in a much more narrowcast market sort of way. ...
  
  Is the Brangelina baby better than me? The only way to answer this is directly and honestly. Tell them: Yes, the Brangelina baby is better than you. But Mommy and Daddy, Grandma and Grandpa all love you very, very much. Less than they love the Brangelina baby, but with as much of their hearts still available.
  
  ***
  
  Can I be friends with the Brangelina baby? No. He/she doesn't care about you. You cannot even look directly at the Brangelina baby. Explain that photos of the Brangelina baby are shot through special lenses, and that prolonged exposure to the Brangelina baby will make your child go blind.

Best time to transition to private school
 

Bright pre-teen 6th grade boy (11) w attention issues is stagnating in local public school. Getting mostly Bs Cs but very bright and not fitting in with the Joneses. Doesn't do the work unless it's (1) interesting or (2) he's on the brink of failure. Scores in the average range in standardized tests, except for IQ. Thinking because of attention issues that a boarding school might be better but he does seem a little young for that now. Might want to have him step back and go a year behind. For example, have him go into 6th after 6th here or go into 7th there after 7th here.

Also good (but not superstar) athlete who basically competes in any sports he tries but doesn't have enough initiative to truly excell. Would like athletics program to be a part of the mix.

Any thoughts on when to make the transition? Any other suggestions?
