Links Round-Up
Just in time for the third installment of the week o’ round-ups, I present to you: My Pee Pee Bottle. My Pee Pee Bottles are “Simple On-The-Go Potty and Hygiene Aid for Toddlers.” Also? They’re plastic jars you could probably find in your cupboard right now, for free! Thanks, Dominique! (via)
- Remember this Mama Drama post about ‘full-birth’? Well, a woman faced her insecurities and wrote an article about just that topic titled, “I Had a C-Section, Does That Make Me Less Of a Mother?” Then a bunch of angry women in the comments section told her to get a life and find some real problems. Thanks, Jaclyn! (via ParentDish)
- Here’s a story about a woman whose photo of her nude baby was removed by Facebook. Because this takes place in Australia, she’s pretty level-headed about it, and no ‘bows were thrown. BOR-ING. Thanks, Ruby! (via Courier Mail)
- Very Meri Tees are tees designed by kids for kids, with 3% of the profits going to the designers and another 3% going to charities chosen by the designers. It’s a great mission that encourages “self-expression, creativity and building confidence among children of all ages.” As opposed to, say, the Nike shirt* worn by ‘lil Justyce. Check it out! (via Entrepreneur.com and Very Meri Tees)
- A fight broke out between two women at a Children’s Museum in St. Paul, MN. According to the Museum Director, “There was some pushing and shoving, a few punches thrown, hair pulling.” Sounds about right. Thanks, Kate! (via)
- Danish-Norwegian artist Nina Maria Kleivan dressed her baby up as Hitler and other evil figures and everyone was all, “Oh no she did not!” And then she was like, “Yep, I did. It’s art, bitches.” Thanks, Leann! (via)
- Passive-Aggressive Notes is responsible for this gem of a note posted in a Richmond, VA apartment building. Reminds me of this and this. Thanks, (via PAN)
- I don’t think ‘cute’ is the best word to describe this 20 kilo Iranian baby, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t adorable on an ultra-disturbing level. Thanks, Katie! (via)
- This mom got kicked out of a Twin Cities restaurant for breastfeeding. OK, seriously? I’m ready for public breastfeeding to stop being such a hot button topic. They’re boobs, get over it! Thanks, Nick! (via)
- Here’s a depressing and complex story about a Russian orphan who was returned by a US woman who had previously adopted him. The whole story sucks. Thanks, though Marianne! (via)
- LOTS of people sent me emails about the 16-year-old Arkansas boy who’s suing his mother for harassment over Facebook. As one person said, “This is the wave of the future.” Thanks, Judy! (via)
*This kid is not ‘lil Justyce.
