Regarding the AITA: I am a parent, and I have a two-year old, and you guys were 100% correct in your verdict. First, as a parent, you can never assume that someone else is watching your kid unless you explicitly ask. Second, childproofing is HARD. Like, toddlers will manage to get into things that you have no idea are a hazard, but they somehow magically manage to make them one! Toddlerhood is really difficult and scary because kids are really mobile and capable, but they have no sense of self-preservation. I think I, too, would probably be upset/angry/annoyed with my friend at first, but probably/hopefully reassess when I calmed down. I know sometimes it's frustrating because I'm hoping that, when we're staying with someone (e.g. grandparents), I'm hoping that someone else will step in to give me a break. But I've realized that I need to ask for it, and that as long as my husband and I are physically present, we are ultimately responsible for our kid.
Totally agree that it is the parent's responsibility to keep an eye on their child unless they have specifically made an agreement with someone to babysit. If the mother had simply asked her friend to keep an eye on. the toddler when she left the room to talk on the phone the whole problem could have been avoided. I bet the friend watching over the child would have waited to go to the bathroom or taken the child to his mother before leaving the room if she knew the mom expected her to watch over him.
Hi Hannah and Shane! I was the overly excited woman waiving at you in opposing traffic today and just wanted to say that I am here visiting from Virginia so it was such an amazing gift to see you both! Thank you for waving back! It totally made this trip unforgettable!!!! ❤❤❤
I agree Hannah. I'm a mom of 3 kids and it's my responsibility to make sure my child is safe. You cannot expect a person who doesn't have a child to know everything that needs to be childproof.
Regarding AITA- the parent is the responsible party. Different kids have different interests. I never had to worry about my kids eating magnets. I had to worry about my kids eating soap. So, anytime I have traveled with my kids, I needed to baby-proof places for toxic soaps. Other people have to put all the keys up high, some have to cover the outlets, some have to close all the doors. It’s the parents’ responsibility to know their own kid and check for safety accordingly.
I'm a parent of an 8 month old, and I honestly have zero expectations for my friends to do any kind of baby proofing when I visit. I take full responsibility to care for my child's safety, and if I want to step away to do anything, I ALWAYS ask whoever I'm with if they're comfortable watching my baby or not.
I love this podcast so muchh! As a fellow Minnesotan, you can only imagine how sad I was when my husband said he saw you guys on a walk last week or so. He was on his way to a job (he is a painter), he was so surprised to see you guys, but didn't wanna bother you! haha. Wish I was with him I would have loved to at least say hi! haha. I hope you guys make it safely to LA! 💗
Yes! Every bite has to be the best bite because I never know when I’m gonna feel nauseous or suddenly full and then miss out on my favorite part of the meal.
Regarding the “Asshole” story……the “disconnect” is where the Mom takes the phone call in the other room without saying “Will you watch Junior while I take this phone call?” The host would have said, “Sure” and would have stayed and watched the kid. It was the guest Mama’s fault to assume her friend was aware of this automatically. It’s too bad they just couldn’t talk it out and smooth it over. Oh well…..
Regarding the AITA: I am a parent and when my kids were toddlers we had things baby proofed but I had an experience once where another parent came over and their child got into some things in our house that my children had NEVER touched. I realized that you have to baby proof differently for different kids. Even between my kids, one got into completely different things than the other. There is no way a non parent would know what your kid might get into. You are 100% right in that the parent in this case was responsible
Loved the episode. It’s sad how much I look forward to your shows. I love AITA, Hannah’s Deep Dive, Would You Rather, and all the daily life experiences you guys share. Can we look forward to another Christmas season duet this year? (Yes, please). I think the AITA format would work for many topics or interesting events past or present. I really enjoy the discussion that follows. Thanks for all the great episodes. I hope you guys enjoy doing them as much as we viewers enjoy watching and hope the chanel continues for a long time.
I agree with Shane on being the smartest. Most popular could end up losing popularity but doing something dumb. So being smart would enable you to navigate social situations.
Shane is correct about people who have lung issues. I have COPD and had issues in the Smokey Mountains. Ya'll keep rocking this! Love the podcast and the other videos. Congrats on your visit to the White House ❤😊😊😊
As someone with a great memory, but also adhd, I can tell you I will always remember appointments and meetups, but I am chronically late for everything. I struggle with estimating how much time tasks take. And I hate having to just wait, so it tends to trip me up and make me arrive 5 mins late to everything.
I think the woman made a conscientious effort to make her environment safe for the child. I also agree with Hanna it’s the mothers responsibility to make sure the area is safe.
thank you Hannah! I was upset listening to this story... her friend is expecting her child-less friend to know anything and everything about having a child in a home that normally has no children around?? Completely irrational for her to have that expectation. Thats not your friend. 100% agree that it is the parents responsibility.
I always enjoy you. Some of those would you rather were difficult. I often think of things that I wish had gone a different way and years later I appreciate that they didn’t . I hope that makes sense. I will be 80 in February and since I am in independent living, I have lots of time to sit think and remember. For the longest time most of what I thought were times and things that I wasn’t happy about, and became really depressed because I blamed myself for everything unpleasant. At last I have realized that I must put the past in the past and leave it there. I have so much to be thankful for now I know thinking happy thoughts need to fill my future. I am not the sharpest tack in the box but I try to always do my best. Thank you for your posts you touch many people and your love for each other is something the world needs more of . You are loved. By the way Shane I live in Allentown Pa, so many things you often mention I am familiar with😊
Shane, my MAN! Coffee is the staff of life. Leftovers, yes, were we separated at birth? Wait, I already have a twin brother. 😂 Gotta go for now, will be back to finish this video. Love you two to the moon and back. ❤
You are the mom- know the environment and what needs to be done to keep the kids safe . Anytime we enter an AirBNB the first thing we do is do a sweep to put Everything hazardous up and throw outlet covers one
regarding the first question of the "would you rather" - if you haven't yet, you should really read flowers for algernon by daniel keyes. it perfectly outlines what hannah is worried about with being the smartest person in the world, and it's a fantastic book overall :)
I ran a home daycare out of my house for several yrs. I had heard a tip to crawl around on your knees(about the same height as a 2yr old) to see their perspective. Although I thought I had gone above and beyond child-proofing, I was so surprised at the things I found to be deemed unsafe for little ones, at that height!! A toilet lock is also a MUST if you're going to have little ones in your home for frequent visits!! I'm pretty sure I'm the reason my parents stopped having any more kids-i had my stomach pumped 4x before I was 4yrs old, plus 3 trips to E. R. for ipecac syrup.. I ate EVERYTHING!! 🤢
Parents are ALWAYS responsible for the kids. IF you go to a home that does not have children it is the PARENTS responsibility to ask the home owner to remove said items while you are visiting. And also the PARENTS responsibility to watch the children. Safty first, setting child in a car seat or high chair or play pen or stroller may also be helpful if you need to be in the bathroom or away for a minute or two. As a mom, grandmom and daycare provider for many years I always made sure the children were safe before I left the room. Folks who dont have kids have no idea how fast children can get into things, so AGAIN PARENTS need to be the informer and responsibile for their child,
"A real big spoon, one that would be used for rice," Girl, I eat my rice with a fork, teaspoon, chopsticks or my fingers. How big is a rice spoon? Is it like spoons you eat vegetable soup with or the porcelain soup spoon that come with chinese soup bowls or the wide, flat ones that come with rice cookers?
Wausau Wi Lemongrass restaurant. My newer favorite is Rib Eye Garlic Pasta (level 2 spice with tiny side order of jalapeños) & next door is a chocolate Cafe for some sweets.
Oooo, Hannah... Idk if you've ever heard of hyperthymesia, but it's a condition that some people actually have where they can't forget things. Their brain processes everything and keeps it stored, and that seems absolutely terrifying. 😂😩 Many people who deal with it will literally live in a blank slate home because anything can be triggering and cause an rush of overstimulating memories. Imagine being able to remember every single day of your life, ever single moment of that day in vivid detail. We forget things for a reason. I would be miserable lol.
Thank You! I have always want to ask you about your weight but I did not dare. My son is 16 years old, he weights between 60 and 70 pounds, he gains weigh one month and loss it the next. He uses a wheelchair and I fight with the doctors every time. His doctors doesn't care about his weigh, but when I need to go to the ER or meet a new doctor they always, always have something to say about his weight. His food is mashed and I gave him the shake that you talk. Thank You!
you should try avacado toast with salt pepper and tumeric! mmmmmm its fast and easy too ( the tumeric can be a little weird at first but its really good for you)
THAT PERSON WAS TALKING HOW MUCH VEIWER YOU BOTH HAVE. OF COUSE YOU HAVE ALOT OF VEIWS. AND THAT YOU GUYS ARE BORING. NO YOU ARE NOT BORING. YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST. ❤ THIS IS WHY YOU HAVE SO MANY VEIWS. LOVE YOU BOTH.
As a parent, I agree with you. Your child is never anyone else’s responsibility except your own. You can’t expect the houses of people who don’t have children to be child proof. The friend had made an effort already, but if your not a parent you don’t think about those things. And most parents don’t either until they make changes to baby proofing as their child ages and it becomes apparent as to what needs to be proofed. If the mom had wanted them to watch her kiddo while she took a phone call she should have said that to ensure he was vexing watched. But honestly, if she was a good friend and knew that she wasn’t comfortable around kids it shouldn’t have ever been pushed off on her to begin with.
Shane keep drinking you after dinner beer. On google it says "Light to moderate consumption of beer may help decrease the risk of heart disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and type 2 diabetes."
Shane… I Gotta be honest with you… I’ve been listening to what you have to say in this video and all….but all I’m looking at is all that neck real-estate for that tattoo!!!! I think you should try wearing some temporary tattoos and see how you feel committing to work on your neck…. It really really really looked good on you…. And then it will help you in future interactions with ppl confusing you for a child!! (not that you need to do anything to change you…) I just think tattoos can be very sexy…when done well I did printable tattoos and tried out my ideas temporary before committing to them permanent, and that really helped me in my decision making process …. But… don’t even get me going on total sleeves. !! Btw…. I love you guys so much and no offence Hannah, but I get it I get it…. Shane… you have undefinable magnetic pull…..in other words… you got that somphin somphin…. 🥰😘❤ (sorry I’m such a creeper today…. I probably need more coffee.)
As a 39 year old man with Spina Bifida, i require very specific nutritional needs. Anything Calcium fortified, like yogurt and milk, plenty of Protein to keep my skin healthy and it heals faster since im prone to skin breakdowns and pressure ulcers. It's a lot to keep up with but i have to do it for my health and wellness.
I am a Mom of four kids. In no way would I ever expect a person with no to automatically know something like that especially when so many parents don't even know nor find out until things have already happened to their kids
For AITA: this reminded me of having a group of women and their children (3 and under) over to my house. My daughter was an infant so I didn’t know about baby proofing. The toddlers were grabbing things off the shelves as I was moving items out of their reach. It was definitely up to me to move things and learn. In AITA: the Mom was at fault
As a mom of 3 now adult children, I always lived by "my kids, my responsibility". I had plenty of friends who did not have children at the time I did, and I would never leave my child in the care of someone who wasn't comfortable or interested in children. It's not fair for either side.
🎶On the road again…just can’t wait to get on the road again… something, something, making music with my friends, I just can’t wait to get on the road again…🎶 (That’s how I sing it 🤣)
20:15 would u rather 1 I rather have the smartest child in the world because Popularity fades as we enter the workforce and doesn't matter at all while having smarts is actually useful for life. It may make their school life miserable cause popular kids can be really mean to the smart kids but its worth it imo. 2 live life without being able to forget because then i can remember all the memories i had with my papa. 3 Date with someone who's punctual because I HATE it when people are late. 4 I rather be forgotten after my death then be remembered for a bad reason. 5 Stop time because then I can freeze time and memories 6 travel a lot because I always wanted to travel.
I was once helping my cousin (we were both just 21 years old at the time) watch her infant son. I put him in his changing table and walked quickly to the bathroom for something, then back to the bedroom. She had just walked into the bedroom, and was staring at me, open mouthed in shock. "You LEFT him in here??" she gasped. "well yeah, he's on the table, what's the problem?" She went on to tell me all the things he could have done in that moment, starting with rolling off the table. "...he can do that...??" I asked, amazed. Yikes! The good news is that he survived my occasional baby sitting , and is in fact a perfectly healthy 40 year old man now 😅 I, however, never did have kids, and to this day would have to think hard about what I need to do to keep one safe 🤷♀️
I love that you are thriving I hope you live a long life I am 65 and 97 pounds many think I have cancer but i am very healthy for my age I am just lucky i guess. I believe God put us all on earth for a reason yours is to give inspiration to others, I think.
I could get by on a Begel and a mug of coffee for breakfast. A sandwich and a mug of coffee for lunch. Than 3 or 4 slices of pizza or a foot long sub with a cup of tea for dinner.
I agree it is the Mom's responsibility. Also it seems to me that the mother is unable to picture things from her friend's perspective which makes her seem very self-centered.
Is it possible that the mother was angry at herself for not noticing the magnets and projected it onto her friend? Also, moving to a hotel is way too dramatic for this situation.
Hi Shane & Hannah 🤗 What is the name/brand please of the high calorie shake Shane has?🙏 My man (DMD) has tummy tube at night since he too can't eat enough and as the special shakes here in France made him 🤮 but his tube can also give him some 🤢 I wondered if your option was better that maybe we can order online. Thank you in advance 🤗🤗
She’s not the asshole…As a mother I can say that its the mom’s responsibility to ask if it was ok to just check out the house for any hazards since they were staying there for a few days…people who aren’t parents may not think of things like this. I know when I became a mom it was stressful and felt like I needed to keep my son in my son at every minute…but, by the time my daughter was born 2 years later I was so laid back.
Thanks for doing this my man. Could you tell us more about the protein shake you have pls? Im a 48 yr old with lifelong digestive problems and protein absorption issues 110lbs….. no matter what Im enjoying your sharing
Hi Shane and Hannah!😊😊. A question, if I may? When Shane received the results from his first tests, on your journey to parenthood, was an optimal healthy diet suggested? Like vegetables, in any form, in the way of protein shakes if that is preferred? AG1 maybe? Pureed form? If it is the taste that puts Shane off, many other things such as fruits can be added in small amounts. Just so that Shane can get his system as healthy as possible, in the hope that this can be a permanent change. Anything to keep Shane in his family's life for as long as is possible. We all love sugary things, believe me. I have to check myself so often, but still have to have something. 😊 In my 70s now, but still want to be around as long as I can. Much love from this Nana in NZ! 💞💞💞🌞🙋🏼♀️🚐🇳🇿
Let's reword the memory one, "Would you rather be able to forget anything you wanted to, or remember anything you wanted to?" This way, it's not forgetting or remembering EVERYTHING only the things you chose to.
Friends and family will NEVER care about your children the way you will. Family is probably worse than friends actually. I learned quickly that it was all on me and my husband and it’s better that way.
I agree with you both. The mom is ultimately responsible for her child. I think both adults are very poor communicators, however. The mom could've specifically asked the friend to watch her son (but perhaps that was implied when she took the phone call?). The friend could've let the mom know she was leaving the child alone....😬 Both ppl seem irresponsible. 🤔 When I was a new mom, my sister's home was like a death trap for my kids. Every family gathering was held there. I had to stay extremely vigilant and keep a hawk eye on them the whole time (sharp corners, open outlets, choking hazards, etc). When I suggested they try to baby proof a little to help make family visits less stressful for me (outlet covers mostly), my sister and her then husband refused. If anything horrible would've happened to my kids bc of their lack of care, I prob would've been pretty upset at them. So, I can kind of see both sides. But I'm very vigilant with my kids and wouldn't leave them with ppl I didn't trust. But that doesn't mean accidents don't happen. They do. Plus, if a friend of mine didn't like my child bc they "didn't like kids," that would be a definite red flag for our friendship anyway. 😬🤷♀️
You are right, it's the parent's responsibility to keep their child safe. However, when I had kids, I felt a little crazy creep in. The weight of caring for a baby and raising a child is heavy. The risk to making a mistake can be catastrophic. My initial reaction may not be the kind, rational one. But I'd come back around, I think, and apologize if I did place blame on someone else. It's also a little jarring to have kids and then realize you can't move about in the world as easily as you used to. You can't just take a call when you need or want to. You can't eat or pee or sleep when you need or want to. And that frustration may also be the source of some parental crazy. We're sorry. We'll keep trying to do better!
Please excuse the curiosity but do you mind telling me why you have the vitamin protein shake at night instead of the morning ? Is it better for your system at night ? I am interested to see if it might be something I could do to help with my health problems or is it just personal preference ?
AITA: when my half brother had a kid, my parents child proofed the house. He would point out issues (this had never been his home), and never left the kid with them without checking. He lost custody of the first kid, and is now in prison for some intense DV in front of the next two kids... Yeah the friend could have asked but that's said with hindsight and the mom is irresponsible for not being proactive. That plus the friend walking past the mom to go to the bathroom, it sounds like the mom is mad at herself and projecting this anger onto the friend. I'd be patient with that a day or two, but this situation is emotionally abusive. Being end-the-friendship angry bc your kid got hurt when you *knew* no one was watching them--after you had repeatedly left the kid alone--then reaching out after the fact just to drill this in further? Fuck that.
Per the AITA: both the mother and the friend are the a-holes. The mother for not asking the friend to stay with the child while she took the call. The friend for not telling the mother that she needed to leave the room. Both adults failed. And neither one failed because there were magnets on the fridge. Neither one should have left the child without communicating to the other adult.
The mom was the asshole… I have kids, and would have 100% scoped out the house a bit when I arrived to check for hazards. And I KNOW friends without kids are clueless so I’d never assume they were good on their own lol. Just a clueless first time mom, and also an asshole for ending a friendship over a stressful situation.
If I had a child and had a friend babysit, I would still give reminders. Like,.. joke around and say my baby likes to put a lot of things in her mouth. I’m always afraid of her choking. Make sure to not let anything small enter her mouth. Also she likes to climb stuff…, etc. likewise I don’t have babies right now but if a friend had me babysit, I would look up safety measures and ensure nothing would fall and watch her like a hawk. But I’m pretty paranoid and conscientious myself so… ish
Regarding the AITA: I am a parent, and I have a two-year old, and you guys were 100% correct in your verdict. First, as a parent, you can never assume that someone else is watching your kid unless you explicitly ask. Second, childproofing is HARD.

Regarding AITA: you are RIGHT the mom is AITA
Totally agree that it is the parent's responsibility to keep an eye on their child unless they have specifically made an agreement with someone to babysit. If the mother had simply asked her friend to keep an eye on. the toddler when she left the room to talk on the phone the whole problem could have been avoided. I bet the friend watching over the child would have waited to go to the bathroom or taken the child to his mother before leaving the room if she knew the mom expected her to watch over him.
Hi Hannah and Shane! I was the overly excited woman waiving at you in opposing traffic today and just wanted to say that I am here visiting from Virginia so it was such an amazing gift to see you both! Thank you for waving back! It totally made this trip unforgettable!!!! ❤❤❤
How fun for you!😊

I hope you guys make it safely to LA! 💗
The more I watch these the more I appreciate Shane's sense of humor! 😄😄
I have a health condition and can totally relate to making the most of each bite. I'm with you Shane
Yes! Every bite has to be the best bite because I never know when I’m gonna feel nauseous or suddenly full and then miss out on my favorite part of the meal.
I think the mom in the story knew fully well that it was her fault but was unable to face that she had put her child’s life in danger.
I agree with your response to AITA. I have a 15 month old baby and I absolutely do not expect anyone to baby proof their house if we were to visit.
Totally agree that it is the parent's responsibility to keep an eye on their child.
Regarding the “Asshole” story……the “disconnect” is where the Mom takes the phone call in the other room without saying “Will you watch Junior while I take this phone call?” The host would have said, “Sure” and would have stayed and watched the kid.

100% agree with Hannah - smartest person in the world sounds like a miserable life. Ignorance is often bliss.

I did enjoy this junkyard episode. You two are so well suited for each other. Thank you for a fun time!
Agree it’s totally up to the parent to watch the child!!! Parents sometimes have a habit of becoming to relax while visiting
Shane is correct about people who have lung issues. I have COPD and had issues in the Smokey Mountains. Ya'll keep rocking this! Love the podcast and the other videos. Congrats on your visit to the White House ❤😊😊😊
Hey guys. I enjoy your videos. What people say are there opinions only. You guys are a beautiful couple. Your honesty with each other is awesome.

Shane, you will experience huge health issues if you do not start drinking more water. It’s so incredibly vital for everything.
Shane-thanks for sharing your diet! What’s your favorite meal ever and what kind of shake do you drink before bed? Love you guys❤
Shane, my MAN! Coffee is the staff of life. Leftovers, yes, were we separated at birth? Wait, I already have a twin brother. 😂 Gotta go for now, will be back to finish this video. Love you two to the moon and back. ❤

Would love to see you both travel in accessible RV
I'm a mom of 3 adult kids, and I agree the mom is the one to safety check the house.

Their brain processes everything and keeps it stored, and that seems absolutely terrifying. 😂😩 Many people who deal with it will literally live in a blank slate home because anything can be triggering and cause an rush of overstimulating memories. Imagine being able to remember every single day of your life, ever single moment of that day in vivid detail. We forget things for a reason. I would be miserable lol.
26:22 I love Hannah’s “oh here we go” lol
Thank You! I have always want to ask you about your weight but I did not dare. My son is 16 years old, he weights between 60 and 70 pounds, he gains weigh one month and loss it the next. He uses a wheelchair and I fight with the doctors every time. His doctors doesn't care about his weigh, but when I need to go to the ER or meet a new doctor they always, always have something to say about his weight. His food is mashed and I gave him the shake that you talk. Thank You!
I’m with Shane… dinner leftovers for breakfast are my absolute favorite breakfasts lol
“ You have never had a good thought in your entire life!” LMAO😂
I love the way Shane pushes Hannah’s buttons 😂
you should try avacado toast with salt pepper and tumeric! mmmmmm its fast and easy too ( the tumeric can be a little weird at first but its really good for you)
I absolutely love watching you two. You make me laugh! Have a blessed day!
THAT PERSON WAS TALKING HOW MUCH VEIWER YOU BOTH HAVE. OF COUSE YOU HAVE ALOT OF VEIWS. AND THAT YOU GUYS ARE BORING. NO YOU ARE NOT BORING. YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST. ❤ THIS IS WHY YOU HAVE SO MANY VEIWS. LOVE YOU BOTH.
As a parent, I agree with you. Your child is never anyone else’s responsibility except your own. You can’t expect the houses of people who don’t have children to be child proof. The friend had made an effort already, but if your not a parent you don’t think about those things. And most parents don’t either until they make changes to baby proofing as their child ages and it becomes apparent as to what needs to be proofed. If the mom had wanted them to watch her kiddo while she took a phone call she should have said that to ensure he was vexing watched. But honestly, if she was a good friend and knew that she wasn’t comfortable around kids it shouldn’t have ever been pushed off on her to begin with.
Shane keep drinking you after dinner beer. On google it says "Light to moderate consumption of beer may help decrease the risk of heart disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and type 2 diabetes."
Shane… I Gotta be honest with you… I’ve been listening to what you have to say in this video and all….but all I’m looking at is all that neck real-estate for that tattoo!!!!
I think you should try wearing some temporary tattoos and see how you feel committing to work on your neck…. It really really really looked good on you….
And then it will help you in future interactions with ppl confusing you for a child!! (not that you need to do anything to change you…) I just think tattoos can be very sexy…when done well
I did printable tattoos and tried out my ideas temporary before committing to them permanent, and that really helped me in my decision making process ….
But… don’t even get me going on total sleeves. !!
Btw…. I love you guys so much and no offence Hannah, but I get it I get it…. Shane… you have undefinable magnetic pull…..in other words… you got that somphin somphin…. 🥰😘❤
(sorry I’m such a creeper today…. I probably need more coffee.)
As a 39 year old man with Spina Bifida, i require very specific nutritional needs. Anything Calcium fortified, like yogurt and milk, plenty of Protein to keep my skin healthy and it heals faster since im prone to skin breakdowns and pressure ulcers. It's a lot to keep up with but i have to do it for my health and wellness.
You guys are so funny always look forward to your podcasts
I am a Mom of four kids. In no way would I ever expect a person with no to automatically know something like that especially when so many parents don't even know nor find out until things have already happened to their kids
For AITA: this reminded me of having a group of women and their children (3 and under) over to my house. My daughter was an infant so I didn’t know about baby proofing. The toddlers were grabbing things off the shelves as I was moving items out of their reach. It was definitely up to me to move things and learn. In AITA: the Mom was at fault
Needed this video today. Thank you! It was fun!
Denver, CO is exactly half way between St Paul, MN and L.A.
As a mom of 3 now adult children, I always lived by "my kids, my responsibility". I had plenty of friends who did not have children at the time I did, and I would never leave my child in the care of someone who wasn't comfortable or interested in children. It's not fair for either side.
🎶On the road again…just can’t wait to get on the road again… something, something, making music with my friends, I just can’t wait to get on the road again…🎶 (That’s how I sing it 🤣)
We just got back from grand Marie and stoped at Beth fudge and gifts.
We bought 2 pounds of fudge.
One of my fav foods is quick oats, banana, honey and granola! It’s a fav breakfast/brunch!❤️
20:15 would u rather
1 I rather have the smartest child in the world because Popularity fades as we enter the workforce and doesn't matter at all while having smarts is actually useful for life. It may make their school life miserable cause popular kids can be really mean to the smart kids but its worth it imo.
2 live life without being able to forget because then i can remember all the memories i had with my papa.
3 Date with someone who's punctual because I HATE it when people are late.
4 I rather be forgotten after my death then be remembered for a bad reason.
5 Stop time because then I can freeze time and memories
6 travel a lot because I always wanted to travel.
I was once helping my cousin (we were both just 21 years old at the time) watch her infant son. I put him in his changing table and walked quickly to the bathroom for something, then back to the bedroom. She had just walked into the bedroom, and was staring at me, open mouthed in shock.
"You LEFT him in here??" she gasped. "well yeah, he's on the table, what's the problem?" She went on to tell me all the things he could have done in that moment, starting with rolling off the table. "...he can do that...??" I asked, amazed. Yikes!
The good news is that he survived my occasional baby sitting , and is in fact a perfectly healthy 40 year old man now 😅 I, however, never did have kids, and to this day would have to think hard about what I need to do to keep one safe 🤷♀️
I love that you are thriving I hope you live a long life I am 65 and 97 pounds many think I have cancer but i am very healthy for my age I am just lucky i guess. I believe God put us all on earth for a reason yours is to give inspiration to others, I think.
Yeah I get abuse for my weight, I'm depressed about it wont allow people look at me I'm 88 pounds.
I ❤ warhead soda. Peach, green apple and watermelon are my favorite.
Luv u guys!!! Thank you for being transparent… ❤❤❤
I could get by on a Begel and a mug of coffee for breakfast. A sandwich and a mug of coffee for lunch. Than 3 or 4 slices of pizza or a foot long sub with a cup of tea for dinner.
For breakfast…Leftovers from last nights food are my favs, especially pizza and pasta.
It’s totally the parents’ responsibility to look around a house for dangers, especially if your friend has no children.
I agree it is the Mom's responsibility. Also it seems to me that the mother is unable to picture things from her friend's perspective which makes her seem very self-centered.
Lol, that was so something i would say Shane.... so, on that note. Have a nice weekend. 😂
Loved this video and you both❤❤❤
Shane, I eat dinner leftovers for breakfast too!! Haha. I always crave something savory in the morning and it's easy too
Is it possible that the mother was angry at herself for not noticing the magnets and projected it onto her friend? Also, moving to a hotel is way too dramatic for this situation.
Hi Shane & Hannah 🤗 What is the name/brand please of the high calorie shake Shane has?🙏
My man (DMD) has tummy tube at night since he too can't eat enough and as the special shakes here in France made him 🤮 but his tube can also give him some 🤢 I wondered if your option was better that maybe we can order online. Thank you in advance 🤗🤗
Shane must of been to a nutritionist many times in his life. 😂😂😂
She’s not the asshole…As a mother I can say that its the mom’s responsibility to ask if it was ok to just check out the house for any hazards since they were staying there for a few days…people who aren’t parents may not think of things like this. I know when I became a mom it was stressful and felt like I needed to keep my son in my son at every minute…but, by the time my daughter was born 2 years later I was so laid back.
I’m a parent and 100% agree with Shane & Hannah
Thanks for doing this my man. Could you tell us more about the protein shake you have pls?
Im a 48 yr old with lifelong digestive problems and protein absorption issues
110lbs….. no matter what
Im enjoying your sharing
Hi Shane and Hannah!😊😊. A question, if I may? When Shane received the results from his first tests, on your journey to parenthood, was an optimal healthy diet suggested? Like vegetables, in any form, in the way of protein shakes if that is preferred? AG1 maybe? Pureed form? If it is the taste that puts Shane off, many other things such as fruits can be added in small amounts. Just so that Shane can get his system as healthy as possible, in the hope that this can be a permanent change. Anything to keep Shane in his family's life for as long as is possible. We all love sugary things, believe me. I have to check myself so often, but still have to have something. 😊 In my 70s now, but still want to be around as long as I can. Much love from this Nana in NZ! 💞💞💞🌞🙋🏼♀️🚐🇳🇿
Let's reword the memory one, "Would you rather be able to forget anything you wanted to, or remember anything you wanted to?"
This way, it's not forgetting or remembering EVERYTHING only the things you chose to.
Brunch, dinner, second dinner is the best eating schedule 🎉
As part of the multi hour early club, nothing wrong with that at all!😂
The parent needs to be a parent and should not expect somebody to babyproof their entire home or watch them. The friend needs a reality check.
May I suggest eating your pretzels WITH your fudge 🤤 delicious!
Friends and family will NEVER care about your children the way you will. Family is probably worse than friends actually. I learned quickly that it was all on me and my husband and it’s better that way.
How many grams of protein are in the high calorie shake?
Hey guys. I know you guys aren't sure of the attaches on ...but with all being said how long should you be quiet untill retaliation
I agree with you both. The mom is ultimately responsible for her child. I think both adults are very poor communicators, however. The mom could've specifically asked the friend to watch her son (but perhaps that was implied when she took the phone call?). The friend could've let the mom know she was leaving the child alone....😬 Both ppl seem irresponsible. 🤔
When I was a new mom, my sister's home was like a death trap for my kids. Every family gathering was held there. I had to stay extremely vigilant and keep a hawk eye on them the whole time (sharp corners, open outlets, choking hazards, etc). When I suggested they try to baby proof a little to help make family visits less stressful for me (outlet covers mostly), my sister and her then husband refused. If anything horrible would've happened to my kids bc of their lack of care, I prob would've been pretty upset at them. So, I can kind of see both sides. But I'm very vigilant with my kids and wouldn't leave them with ppl I didn't trust. But that doesn't mean accidents don't happen. They do.
Plus, if a friend of mine didn't like my child bc they "didn't like kids," that would be a definite red flag for our friendship anyway. 😬🤷♀️
GOD BLESS, LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS. I SAY TO MYSELF, I WISH YOU GUY WOULD MAKE MORE VIDEOS. LOVE YOUR LAUGH, MAKES MY DAY. ❤❤❤
You are right, it's the parent's responsibility to keep their child safe. However, when I had kids, I felt a little crazy creep in. The weight of caring for a baby and raising a child is heavy. The risk to making a mistake can be catastrophic. My initial reaction may not be the kind, rational one. But I'd come back around, I think, and apologize if I did place blame on someone else. It's also a little jarring to have kids and then realize you can't move about in the world as easily as you used to. You can't just take a call when you need or want to. You can't eat or pee or sleep when you need or want to. And that frustration may also be the source of some parental crazy. We're sorry. We'll keep trying to do better!
If you remember everything you would remember to be on time
Somewhere in the middle of Minnesota and Los Angeles?? Is Shane using his GPS (Grubs Positioning System) to pinpoint his location?? LOL
Please excuse the curiosity but do you mind telling me why you have the vitamin protein shake at night instead of the morning ? Is it better for your system at night ? I am interested to see if it might be something I could do to help with my health problems or is it just personal preference ?
Also , the mother is the responsible one unless there has been prior discussion / agreement for shared oversight .
My favorite snacks are popcorn and fudge. Protein is chicken. It used to be steak but chicken has come out in front.
Blimey I'm surprised the spoon doesn't stand up in that coffee with that much sugar 😂
AITA: when my half brother had a kid, my parents child proofed the house. He would point out issues (this had never been his home), and never left the kid with them without checking. He lost custody of the first kid, and is now in prison for some intense DV in front of the next two kids... Yeah the friend could have asked but that's said with hindsight and the mom is irresponsible for not being proactive. That plus the friend walking past the mom to go to the bathroom, it sounds like the mom is mad at herself and projecting this anger onto the friend.
I'd be patient with that a day or two, but this situation is emotionally abusive. Being end-the-friendship angry bc your kid got hurt when you *knew* no one was watching them--after you had repeatedly left the kid alone--then reaching out after the fact just to drill this in further? Fuck that.
Per the AITA: both the mother and the friend are the a-holes.
The mother for not asking the friend to stay with the child while she took the call.
The friend for not telling the mother that she needed to leave the room.
Both adults failed. And neither one failed because there were magnets on the fridge.
Neither one should have left the child without communicating to the other adult.
The mom was the asshole… I have kids, and would have 100% scoped out the house a bit when I arrived to check for hazards. And I KNOW friends without kids are clueless so I’d never assume they were good on their own lol. Just a clueless first time mom, and also an asshole for ending a friendship over a stressful situation.
If I had a child and had a friend babysit, I would still give reminders. Like,.. joke around and say my baby likes to put a lot of things in her mouth. I’m always afraid of her choking. Make sure to not let anything small enter her mouth. Also she likes to climb stuff…, etc. likewise I don’t have babies right now but if a friend had me babysit, I would look up safety measures and ensure nothing would fall and watch her like a hawk. But I’m pretty paranoid and conscientious myself so… ish
Definitely the parents responsibility.
