Edit: LOL love the responses. You ain’t wrong…

Edit2: I posted this for giggles and have enjoyed it immensely. Thanks for the “parenting advice” (rolls eyes). My daughter is a shit show, but I wouldn’t trade her in for anything. She has three daughters, one of which is exactly like her and the two others are not. So…

    It’s definitely pre-wash. The pink tub would have collected water otherwise.

    In any case, it’s overful. A simple “hey, thanks for doing that, but if we fill too much, it struggles. We can run it more often if we need to, but I really appreciate the effort!” Is probably sufficient to the cause,

      It could also be sufficient to deflate her morale.

      In my tight friend group, you can do that and it works. But I’ve learned through lots of communication failure that different people view criticism as meaning different things.

      One person might take that as “oh hey some helpful feedback” and another might take that as “he thinks I’m worthless”.

      Overall, we should strive to create people who can take the criticism for the help that it is. But that’s not where we’re at.
