my youngest was born at 99.7 percentile weight which is to say his mother pushed out with no epidural a baby that out of 1000 was the third or fourth heaviest and he slept thru the night almost immediately he was a big baby lol he’s absolutely normal sized now. he asked me today if he has adhd coz I do. I said I see some similarities but also differences. I hope he’s more “normal” than me

ours went through a phase of sleeping until 7-7.30am every night and it was amazing but now it's 6am every day which sucks she sleeps all the way through though unless she gets cold or occasionally wakes up from a bad dream so go gently caress myself I guess?

daughter is perma attached to my wife so if she's up so is daughter. 430am? yeah gently caress it why not. it's like a light switch she detects someone is up she's instantly awake. total craziness and can't wait for when I have to crowbar her out of bed when she's a teenager. she's always been a pain to put down but getting her up is super easy at least

I feel like there’s some cursed monkey paw somewhere that answered our prayers and we’re gonna pay for it down the line here somewhere. I think I’ve mentioned it before, but my wife used the book “12 hours of sleep by 12 weeks old” as the basis for sleep training for all of our kids, and it basically boils down to the kids nursing schedule being realigned so that they get enough food to not wake up at night her sister used the same book for her kids, but had much larger boys over our puny girls and it took something like 16 or 18 weeks for them to sleep through the night cuz they could pound milk down like champions and eventually needed formula to supplement at night

Helping a friend setup accounts for their kids' anroid phones. Lol Google's parental control stuff is pure dogshit (undoubtedly intentionally, but also some of this stuff feels designed by people who don't have kids). For starters the setup process asks if you want Google to track the kid's activities for advertising and marketing. It's not needed for any features to work, its just for ads. Also, when the kid turns 13 they are removed from the parental controls. Now I am not saying its good to spy on everything your child does till they turn 18. But I also don't think they should have unfettered access to all the weirdo and fascist poo poo on YouTube just because they turned 13 either. --- Separately, my child and all their friends/classmates are now at the age (elementary school) where they don't know their own strength but it's not negligible either. You have to teach them how to be gentle with certain things . They love to just slam things with full strength. Opening/closing doors/drawers/cabinets. Turning on/off water faucets. Putting down plates. It doesn't surprise me that a quarter of the exhibits at the local children's museum are always broken. If there is a button, kids will absolutely slam the poo poo out of it. I'm sure a third grader could cause a new Joycon to drift like crazy in about 5 minutes.

Pulcinella posted:Helping a friend setup accounts for their kids' anroid phones. There's a lot that sucks about it. It doesn't have the concept of blended households; my kids have either me as the primary for the family group, or their mother, but there's no way to say "it is ok for this other person to also be considered a parent." This is painful when the setup flow for new hardware requires a parent to verify that it's ok. A parent who lives an hour away. And who maybe does not want to have to give their ex wife their Google account credentials. Extremely frustrating because they HAVE app based authentication that goes to my phone when they want to install something. It works! It actually works great! But there's no way to have it do that for other flows. The workaround was, of course, to change my password, give her the changed password, then change it again (but not to the old password!!!! that's been used too recently!!! oh yeah 0ldP@ssw0rd1 is fine, it just can't be 0ldP@ssw0rd.) which is only an acceptable use case because I trust my ex wife enough to not abuse that. This is clearly not going to be the case for other situations, where ultimately the two solutions will be "bring the hardware with you next time you see other parent" and "create a duplicate Google account that only gets used for things for the other parent." This cannot go wrong, especially as one device can have multiple accounts added. And then, this doesn't even get into cases of step families, etc. Just an utterly frustrating lack of functionality that, at best, has its basis in a "this is why we can't have nice things" security model of people spying on other people via family accounts. Realistically, it's because they decided that this is Good Enough, and children of divorce can just eat even more poo poo because it's not the use case for anyone with the power to change it. I am mad about this!!!!

does apple have this? afaik it doesn’t, my kids are part of my family on icloud and not their mother in any way also, one son a) lost his phone and b) forgot his icloud password so we made a new account, that’s fine, but because the old account is a child’s account it can’t actually be removed from my “family”, only transferred to another one what if your child dies? just forced to look at their face until they would have turned 18

one of the twins wanted to remove the training wheels off his bike. “here’s the wrenches, try and figure it out and I’ll help you if you get stuck.” now to get him to a parking lot to practice, the kids school is only a mile away.

nah, no beans here. the difference is that bean dad was an rear end in a top hat about it and belittled his daughter, let alone barely helped her. One of the things I am trying to impart on my children is an attitude to just try and figure something out yourself first if you can. sure, at six, their capabilities for that are limited, but this particular twin is a goddamn carbon copy of me to a scary degree; this is exactly what he needs for his brain.

first day trip was a success! hour and a half car ride without any issue, play play play, used the potty there(!), and an hour and a half car ride back. "what part of the beach trip was your favorite?" "All of the parts!" of course he only napped about 20 minutes on the ride home and has been an impulsive mess this evening. can really tell that executive function is one of the first things to go when a toddler brain gets tired.

devmd01 posted:one of the twins wanted to remove the training wheels off his bike. The right way to tech a kid how to bike is to remove the pedals/cranks off a bike that's sized correctly, then let them shuffle and figure out their balance *first*. Then add pedals back in when they get tired of balance-biking. Both our kids learned how to pedal-bike that way before they turned 3, in one case right after they turned 2. Volmarias posted:Meanwhile, if I tried that with my kids, they would decide that perhaps bicycles are just too much trouble? Kid#1 decided they wanted to ride to school with their friend so we've been practicing that (going great). Of course kid#2 saw this and decided "I can do this too, AHBVIOUSLY". Their average speed is like 12kph and the school run is now taking forever. evil_bunnY fucked around with this message at 09:26 on Aug 21, 2023 |
