    I’m sorry, this next bathroom project…Cars theme!!! My 15 year old son LOVED cars when he was a little boy, but if I tried to make his bathroom a cars theme now, I think he would be mortified and never, ever speak to me again.

      I had the same thought as a mom of four. No way. He’s agreeing for L’s sake and to appease Sarah and prevent one of her meltdowns. She must be so exhausting to be around.

        L has probably never even watched Cars because there is no princess in that movie and it’s for “boys” but she’s trying to make it out like it’s for the both of them. 1 is too old and 1 has never seen it 😂

      I thought the same thing as a mom of 4 older children. No way in hell he wants a Cars theme. He clearly agreed to appease Sarah and for L. It must be exhausting being her child and trying to preventing her meltdowns and drama.

      Seriously. When she said B was all for it, he prob just said that to please her. He’s a growing (almost) teenage boy, why does he need to have a cartoon bathroom? Not against it getting a refresh but why not make it a little more grownup. I get he shares with L but still. Not everything needs to be related to Disney.

        I’m pretty sure he’s 14 as of this past May. She’s just humiliating the kid at this point to satisfy her own selfish needs.

      Ya I thought it was a little ridiculous for a kid B’s age. Also anytime she posts like this asking for suggestions or recommendations what she really wants is free shit/services sent her way. I’m surprised the reno/designers she’s working with now don’t just give her a whole new bathroom.
