Day 1, Hour 2 of solo parenting weekend: the 3 year old is living down to every stereotype about her age that exists. She believes "independent play" is a crime against children. 5 year old wants nothing to do with his sister in this state and wants to make a chocolate cake from scratch at 8 AM

In addition to physical buttons for the major controls, every car should adopt the Mazda center console navigation wheel. You can move through complex menus by twisting and clicking with a lot more accuracy than stabbing at a screen with your finger
