I'm thin and pretty damn cute. Not as cute as I used to be because you know, 52, right...but this guy needs to hear me out on this... I stated my size because you seem to be struggling with your wife's size and choices.

Please, please, please, DO NOT admonish her for not wanting to put the baby in daycare. I raised 3 boys. I was terrified to trust anyone with my kids.

My oldest son was "lost" at daycare at 3 twice. The first time, he was just in the kitchen explaining to the cook how a proper Caesar Salad was to be made. The second time they handed him over to a strange woman, not listed as an approved adult but claiming to be his grandmother. She was his grandmother, but so not the point.

I decided to only leave my kids with family after that. My middle son and baby were systematically abused and molested by my husband's uncle.

NEVER EVER SHAME YOUR WIFE FOR PROTECTING YOUR CHILD! That's not a weight issue, that's a real issue a mother is worried about. At 18 months, your daughter may not even be able to talk enough to tell you if she's mistreated. That's not weight, that motherhood. Please....just don't...
