Does anyone let their N13er use messenger kids? I've gotten a few requests from parents doe L to connect with a classmate but I'm not sure I want him on any type of social media, regardless of how transparent it seems. But I don't want him to miss out on social interaction either :/ We do but I’m very selective on who is on there and he asks permission before going on. I also have the app lockdown do it will only work during certain hours. I’m actually teaching a class on how to restrict iPads and apps to other parents at school.

flamingo , will say I definitely enjoyed chick fil a. Loved the polynesian sauce. However, do not think it'd wait in like a 40min line to get it. I hear that's the norm for CFA!?!? Glad you liked it! Yes, the polynesian sauce is so good...they've started selling it at grocery stores and WalMart here! I've never waited that long. All the locations near us have double drive-thru lanes, and sometimes expand to triple lanes for peak times. They "moooooooove" (get it??) cars thru pretty quick. Longest I've ever waited is probably 15 minutes, but honestly it's usually 10 or less even at lunch time. The CFA drive-thru is an art form, lol. I have seen a couple people joke that CFA should handle the Covid vaccines...and then supposedly a CFA manager in South Carolina was called upon to do just that.

mamabear no social media for us at this age. Although granted, my kids are in school. IDK if I would feel differently if they were at home doing virtual school... but I don't think so. It's a pretty firm line for me so far.

But I don't want him to miss out on social interaction either :/ S and all his friends are on it. They use it a lot. They chat with each other and there’s a lot of Snapchat type features he likes. I have it set so I have to approve any friend requests. I was hesitant at first but it’s been a nice way for him to keep up w his friends during this time.

I got a text from dh right after I got to work that S threw up, which has continued all evening into tonight. I hope she’s the only one who gets sick.

Quoting myself to say by Snapchat features I mean funny faces and things like that. Like he makes himself into animals etc. there are also little quizzes he and his friends give each other (like would you rather eat cheese or spaghetti).

Poor S, trtlcrzy! I hope she feels better and that the rest of you stay healthy. mamabear, we don’t use it. One of Josie‘s classmates moms tried to make it happen last year but no one really took the bait.

That sounds like serious dedication! It's so worth it though. No one should have to wait 40 min for waffle fries.

Our CFA was supposed to be open already but dumb covid delayed it. I’m not sure when it’ll be done now, they’re still building the building.
