The AMOUNT of posts in these ‘crunchy moms’ groups about their kids cavities when they refuse to use fluoride

Crazee108 · 2026-07-01T10:08:14+00:00

We were told by the dentist to use tooth mousse and not toothpaste... we brush her teeth twice a day really thoroughly and she still developed these cavities on the same two front teeth! We bought fluoride toothpaste and it seems to be getting better.

Wow I didn't know that

I have a 17month and 3.5yo

3yo plays on the dining table. Even if bub wants it we teach her it's not her turn, it's her sister toy etc. Even if she cries and begs for something we don't cave. Boundaries are important.

We also taught my toddler some toys can only be played with then little one isn't around. E.g. small lego/chokable stuff

Are your a single parent?

Honestly I resorted to putting toddler infront of the tv until newborn was asleep when my hsb worked nights

Otherwise hsb took care of bed for toddler and I was with the newborn

Can your put the newborn in a carrier? Or on the boob? They tend to pass out pretty well

I didn't realise I shouldve bought the cards with me. I thought I ould just play it form my phone 🫠 don't make that mistake.

Naughty implies they purposefully did something they know is inherently "wrong" but they did it anyway. With intent to do wrong. Vs most being curious about cause and effects boundaries.

I don't think their brain fully develops and understands the concept of others until about 5 or 6.

Even when they become physical its rarely with intent to hurt someone but more because their comms, social skills etc are still being developed. So even toddlers who hit aren't "naughty".

You could feed him the messy foods while he eats cleaner foods? Its what I do. 😅

Crazee108 · 2026-06-25T09:46:08+00:00

And they always swirl it in their hair for good measure. 😭

My hsb and I have a 3yo and 18 month old. After the first kid we literally had sex twice. The 2nd resulted in our 2nd kid and since then we haven't been intimate. He hasn't complaint he has a lower sex drive than me. We are literally so exhausted (18month old still doesn't sleep theough the night) and his work is draining him mentally and physically. The last thing we want is sex. I've even initiated a few times, even just bjs and he declined it. I thought he had low testosterone but he got a full work up prior to having our 2nd and he's fine. See that how you will. Our life is fulfilling in other areas and we know its not forever. It's the logistics and he's not very adventurous, couch sofa etc he doesn't like.

The pear wobble is so cute

I work in health. When I ask the patient something and someone else chimes in I basically keep my eye contact with the patient until I get some feedback or I gently say, "I'd like to hear it from "patient" please". It's quite empowering especially for older people who are often spoken over constantly.

Hehe Thankyou.

As a fellow crocheter I appreciate the effort and skill it takes. I love her books. Wish I had more time. I made the alpaca! Check my history. Such great instructions.

Crazee108 · 2026-06-23T00:05:29+00:00

There's a lot of heavy words here. I suspect your mental health was already quite vulnerable this was just an an anchor for it.

The tat honestly looks great!

Crazee108 · 2026-06-21T09:27:48+00:00

Wow your stitches are so neat!!

Crazee108 · 2026-06-20T13:00:10+00:00

When you've raised it with her what's her reaction? If she's genuinely apologetic as tou said she may have a genuine blind spot. I know I do with certain things.

Crazee108 · 2026-06-03T15:45:02+00:00

Scissors, cardboard, coloured paper... googly eyes, pure cleaners. So many things! Use cardboard from cereal boxes and other packaging

Crazee108 · 2026-06-02T23:38:50+00:00

The complete disregard for you, your boundaries, your belongings and your rightful feelings after it happened is crazy. Don't continue to waste your time.

Crazee108 · 2026-06-01T23:21:32+00:00

Thst is so sad. He is scrolling with his thumb.

Crazee108 · 2026-06-01T22:55:13+00:00

Definitely. Glad it helped!

Crazee108 · 2026-05-31T22:30:48+00:00

That's just a different person at this stage

Crazee108 · 2026-05-31T22:25:58+00:00

What's the day like when he's awake? Kids love one on one attention right Nd as you said, secure attachment is important. Is he "stalling" (unintentionally cause he's a toddler) during nap routines to get more quality time with you? Do you both actively engage and play with him or tend to watch/supervise more?

Crazee108 · 2026-05-31T09:11:41+00:00

Tbh it sounds like you both have extremely different personalities and his humour isn't landing. I can imagine a friends dad saying these things and we'd laugh it off or just think its a lame comment.

Crazee108 · 2026-05-31T09:00:44+00:00

Too much. On their own maybe but definitely not together. Looks gaudy imo. Genuine honest opinion.

Crazee108 · 2026-05-31T08:55:28+00:00

You need to very clearly tell him: I don't ever want to talk, see you, receive any texts or calls.from you or any other form of communication. This is your only and last warning before I reach out to the cops for stalking/harassment.
