Cops were called, turns out some poor soul ran out of gas and just pushed their car into the drive to get it out of the street.

meanwhile at a school near me... https://westseattleblog.com/2023/11/police-investigating-drive-by-spraying-near-arbor-heights-elementary/ quote:An unknown adult in a car sprayed a substance that SPD believes may have been pepper spray toward several students and their families while they were walking on the sidewalk. The unknown adult immediately drove west on 105th and was not seen again as we dealt with this situation.

I'm pretty sure doctors are used to kids doing stuff like that, up to straight up lying and saying they broke their arm because daddy hit them. They probably only call CPS if

my daughter just went to town on a steak quesadilla, then in the bath complained about how full she was, and then a short while later pooped in the bathtub. now she’s happy and I can’t blame her.

I should add that at a birthday party yesterday, she ate 3 slices of dominoes and I had more than I should’ve, and it’s apparently thrown off out poop schedule, so that’s probably part of it. also the birthday boy looked exactly like a tiny Benedict cumberbatch, and I’m glad I resisted the urge to tell the parents. weekends with kids!

my niece and nephew were in town with with their mom this weekend so i got to interact with them a bit. both seem to be having speech problems. the older one is 8 and still can't say r or sh, so he very much still sounds babyish to me. also he talks in a complete monotone, like a robot. no inflection or anything. nice kid though, well behaved. the little girl is 2.5 and barely talks. well she babbles a lot like a baby but she can only say a few words and i didn't hear any sentences. seems bad. they don't have much money either. id love to try to help them out but the dad (my wifes brother) is really touchy about that stuff.

Got some new toothpaste and my son doesn't want to brush his teeth anymore. I tried his new toothpaste and it tastes like bubblegum rear end. Going back to bougie brand Tom or whatever. Lil kids are silly with adult toothpaste, just lil cartoon characters making an awooga sound and trying to scrape the cold off their tongue.

the cool thing about kids is they have no sense of space and play video games with their entire body. so anyway my kid just smacked me in the head with his switch controller because I was standing behind him and he didn't see me and now I have a swollen eye.

if the kid is in a public school, usually there is a school district speech therapist that can assist. if they are in private or charters then they have no obligation to offer anything iirc

as soon as my son was diagnosed with a stutter we got him an individualized education plan to ensure he was accommodated. private schools will either ignore the issue or make up a reason as to why your kid can't go to the school.

Six year old is gonna go places. We asked about his Christmas wishlist, and it started with "huge cheese" and "giant salmon". He had to be specifically prompted to think about toys, and he was way less into that.

Why force toys, we were at the grocery store and promised both kids a treat, the younger got a donut, the older got a pack of smoked salmon.

He's getting presents from at least 5 major sources, it's a matter of fridge space basically. He needs to get stuff that won't spoil. I myself have opted out of presents, and that didn't sit well with anyone, so taking the kids out is gonna be impossible, even though they'd probably be just as happy without all the crap.

When I was a child I would sneak away a big tube of shelf stable parmesan cheese. I'd hide in the closet and just eat handfuls of the stuff.
