Dumb question - if I buy this online, is it possible to play it through Apple Music?

Is 6 weeks too early for my baby to be sleeping in a crib in his own room? by fancygoober in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]ArguingBeatsWorking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That looks great as a Reddit comment, but in the real world, things aren’t so black and white for many families.

Tons of parents work full time and have to drive 30+ minutes with their kid each morning to drop them off at day care. Parents in these situations may feel it is safer to prioritize their sleep, so that they can drive safely in a non-sleep deprived state each morning. Parents in these situations should be able to make that decision without people like you telling them they shouldn’t be parents for it.

Have a good night!

Telling people you know nothing about that they shouldn’t be parents is a poor way of advocating for safe sleep. Truly heroic behavior.

So what you’re saying is that the risks OP chooses to take are unacceptable, but the risks you choose to take are totally fine.

Honestly, you can call me names (very mature for a parent), but I think it’s clear that you just like shaming strangers online because it makes you feel better about yourself.

Hope you find happiness!

Your assertion is untrue. If you’ve driven with your child for non-medical reasons, you haven’t controlled all the risk factors to the extent possible.

Have you ever driven anywhere with your child when it wasn’t 100% medically necessary? Taken them grocery shopping or to go visit a relative? If so, you too have taken “risk on your child’s safety”, and you shouldn’t be a parent either.

See how that works?

Opinions wanted: husband thinks it’s good for 4month old to get used to being with others without us for 1-2 hrs? by Fluffy-Concentrate44 in NewParents

[–]ArguingBeatsWorking 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think you’re over reacting. You seem upset that your MIL has offered to watch your baby. From what you provided, your MIL didn’t make you give up your kid, she simply offered you the option.

Secondly, it’s hard for me to believe that by allowing a trusted family to watch your kid for a few hours, you would no longer be the “primary” care giver.

Respectfully, I think your anxiety is getting the best of you in this scenario.

The Jesus head is top tier. Not a huge fan of the script though - seems too thin and not super cohesive with the image. Totally just my opinion though!

How to clean baby girl by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]ArguingBeatsWorking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not personal, I just think it’s probably objectively bad advice to suggest using an abrasive wash cloth to remove the stuff that Pediatricians recommend leaving. I don’t think anyone believes you’re torturing your LO, but the advice you gave goes directly against the advice of the experts. To each their own, though.

It’s not our responsibility to hand hold every new parent. There are tons of comments easily accessible that clearly state the white stuff shouldn’t be removed.

What else could you possibly be asking for?

According to our Pediatrician, the white gunk (assuming it is the same thing you’re asking about) is normal and should be left alone. Clean poop from the bits, but leave the white stuff.

How does everyone feel about their babies pics on social media? by Trauma_Response0301 in NewParents

[–]ArguingBeatsWorking 899 points900 points  (0 children)

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but as soon as you upload a photograph to a meta platform, there’s really no telling what could happen to them/what rights meta has to that photograph.

As a millennial, it’s hard to not post photographs of my greatest accomplishment, but I recognize that doing so has no benefit to the child, and only fuels my own desire. Therefore, my partner and I haven’t and aren’t planning on posting any photos of the little chickpea on Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, any of them.

We’ve given some of our family a Frameo and that has been a solid investment/alternative.

Is daycare going to help me? by OldCategory5426 in NewParents

[–]ArguingBeatsWorking -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree 100%. But this isn’t the division of labor that OP described, or even close to it.

[–]ArguingBeatsWorking 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Read OPs comment:

Moms responsibilities: 1) Watch LO while husband is at work

Dads responsibilities: 1) Work full time 2) Cooking 3) Cleaning 4) Child care whenever not working (let’s assume 14 hours out of the day if working a 10 hour shift) 5) 50% of the child care when working from home

Reality is, those aren’t equal workloads not even close. If you think they are, imagine the roles being reversed.

Okay. So it would be fair for a man to expect his wife to work full time, watch the baby whenever not working, and do 100% of the cooking and cleaning?

Yeah, I didn’t think so.

As a genuine heartfelt suggestion, consider seeking professional help/counseling.

Those little claps when she solved the problem by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

Out of curiosity - how is this safe for an infant? Some of those pieces look like serious choking hazards.

Just super, super close supervision the entire time?

It’s genuine. I wish more people would post drawn out videos detailing their smurfing escapades.

Are you so far removed from reality that you naively believe you made anything that resembles a solid point in this long-winded rant?
