Our nearly 5yo still wears a pull-up to bed for bladder control. Pity training was tough with him in general but he hasn't had an awake accident in half a year. His body just doesn't hold it in or wake him up while he's sleeping. Happens every other week or so during nap time at preschool too, and that's with them making sure he goes at least twice before his nap. His older sister was potty trained on two days including overnights when she was 2.5.

notaspy posted:Being dry overnight is about a hormone, either your kid produces it or they don't (until they do). hmm interesting. my 9 yr old nephew still has to be on night diapers and parents are wondering if there is some muscular skeletal going on(tight muscles , toe walking) however their area has crappy pediatricians. I may bring it up next time I see them.

My six year old is way ahead of the curve, and he made tons of dyslexia style mistakes a year ago because reading was (and is) still something that he needs to practice. Left handedness on the other hand, we got him with that at age one, and the younger one also seems sinister like his mother.

i had dysgraphia growing up but thankfully it only manifested itself in my handwriting (which is dire and i hold onto pens in a weird/non-standard way). i am glad i never had any difficulty with writing or expressing myself other than the physical task itself. loved writing and reading too.

that's wild. writing stuff down feels great you should do it often. I like how my handwriting has changed over the years and now I write in ALL CAPS and it looks just like my mom's. Freud what does it mean?

^^ that sucks a ton. Remember to make special mom-toddler time, and it will (hopefully) pass. I went through the same and now it's fine. Partly is also toddler maturity. drat toddler, not seeing all the invisible bitchwork your mom puts in!

drat. The days of my 2 year old quietly staying in his room until 9am on weekends are over. Now, when he wakes up at 7, he comes into our room and our glorious lie-in is ended prematurely Edit: although today it was 8am, so not as bad as it could have been

6 year old started off Mother's Day by telling her mother she was always lazy for sleeping in so things are going great! I know that empathy doesn't really hook up yet but love being worried that I'm raising a sociopath.

my kid is in a U8 league and every kid on his team is chill and working to pass the ball and listen to the coach except for ONE kid who just wants to speed around with the ball and shoot on goal without ever looking at his teammates. the kid also has a wild temper and he tried to swing on another kid when the opposing team scored a goal. it's so bad that he loses his mind during practice if his "team" loses the scrimmage. like dude it's your own loving teammates. calm down. according to his mom the kid plays soccer with his dad a bunch. literally never met the dad or even seen him.

The hockey parent experience looks a bit miserable from the outside, at least for anything even slightly competitive. Renting early morning rink time to get in a little more practice before tryouts for the next league district over *Nixon voice* my god
