I tried Dove’s Daily Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner after a sweaty workout at a spin studio and loved it!

At this price, use it daily for soft, manageable hair.
This shampoo and conditioner set is $7.49 at Target.

I have a 3-year old who is an only and is not used to sharing his toys. We have family coming over for a barbecue this weekend including three kids younger than him. How do I prevent him from throwing a tantrum when he watches other kids play with his toys?
My daughter is finishing first grade and has become a voracious reader this year. She loves going to the library, stays up as late as we let her reading, etc. However starting a few months ago she will only read graphic novels and says traditional books are too hard/boring. I don’t want to make it a Thing but do want her to be exposed to different kinds of story telling and more complicated plots, and there seems to be some research to support that. Any suggestions? I have started reading to her again at night from novels so she is at least getting exposure that way.
My kiddo is in K and the last day of school is next week. There’s a big text group with about half the moms in the grade and a couple of weeks ago, someone floated the idea of some kind of graduation party for the kids. Several people said it sounded fun and someone said to get in touch with her if you want to organize. A couple of days ago, she sends an email from herself and about 5 other moms to all parents in the grade that we’re going to have a class picnic after school one day, bring your own lunch (school gets out early that day) and then asks everyone to sign up to volunteer to bring snacks and drinks or set up or clean up etc. Is this weird that we’re expected to contribute to something that we never agreed to (I know we can skip, but its right after school outside the school, so kiddo will want to go)? And I assume I should contribute anyway if we’re going, so as not to ruffle feathers, right?
A vent to the universe…
We invited my inlaws to celebrate an early Christmas with us. We’ll get a Christmas tree, I’ll cook a big meal, they’ll get to open presents with their grandson. They said “Oh, not sure, we might have an event on!” It’s 6 months notice! You’re the one in charge of scheduling the event. His stepmum declined an invite for August because her shoulder is hurting…in June. They complain they don’t get equal time, but then don’t say yes, and then my husband feels rejected. My FIL left the country when we got married, and my husband is making the very long, expensive trip in autumn and his dad is complaining about having his 2 sons and 2 grandkids in the house.
My parents adore my husband and treat him like a son, but sometimes it places his own parents’ behaviour in a starker contrast, and he feels really sad. I think he needs to emotionally detach from them, but that’s hard to do.
Dear Self: It doesn’t make sense to quit your job. It doesn’t make sense to quit your job. Even though you really really want to be able to hang out with your kids all summer, it doesn’t make sense to quit it.
One kid has their last day of school today/tomorrow. Another kid goes for another (almost) 2 weeks with a holiday and a bunch of half days thrown in there. Littlest is still in daycare and I’m hoping that the teacher I don’t like because she seems to really not like him (or me?) hasn’t shown up in 2 weeks and I’m okay with that but also I wish he could just hang out with me.
Gah. I wish my job gave sabbaticals.
