I thought that demands for black cotton panties and kalamata olives was the height of new moo entitlement, but GOMI showed me there are plenty of posts telling you exactly how you should worship moos.
Some tips from Fitnessista:So basically, become an unpaid servant. To hell with that!
- Family and friends can also help out by picking up some neglected chores while they’re over: dishes, laundry, vacuuming, etc.
- Food!
- Pet care or taking care of older children.
- Offer to return overdue library books, address thank-you cards, send out packages/mail, or any small things she hasn’t had time or the ability to get taken care of.
- Remember and honor her parenting style and wishes.
Avital also had this to say:
- Before you walk in the door, put your game face on. Set a timer, on your phone or watch for 15 minutes. When it goes off, get out of there!
And better not disturb moo's "beauty rest."- Bring a healthy meal. Include a salad or fresh vegetables. Only use disposable dishes.
- In addition to your meal, bring cut up veggies and fruit, unsalted trail mix or nuts, or other such healthy snacks for daytime munching for mom to eat while she's nursing.
Do you need me to hand feed her, too?- Go into the kitchen and spend 5 minutes clearing off a counter, washing a sink-full of dishes, loading the dishwasher etc. Don't ask permission, just do it. Then set the table for their dinner.
See my first remark.- Before you leave your house, put some paper towels and some powdered bathroom cleaner like Commet or Ajax in a baggie. Stick it in your purse. While you are at the house, go and use the washroom...and while in there do a three minute bathroom shine-up, using your paper towels and cleaner.
- Coo over the baby, but wash your hands before touching it.
Yet she won't think twice about plopping the diapered loaf on a food counter.- Take the garbage out when you go.
Only if by garbage, you mean moo and minion.

Sneak some Comet in a baggie...oh lord. Just when you think you've heard it all... should I peel the grapes before I bring them over, too?
Here's Avital's site if you want to read the list yourself.

whenever i visit any close friend who has had a kiddie, broken a leg, etc. i stop by cupcake royale and bring a half dozen, or i bring flowers. that's it. no cleaning, cooking or dog walking, unless the person is very, very ill; then i don't mind helping them out. but i've certainly never had anyone ASK me for any of this.
then again, i would never be friends with someone as entitled as these bitches. fuck
