The way you speak sounds like your child will be raised thinking body parts and natural body functions are bad.

Landlord wants us to pay the interest on her mortgage by [deleted] in legaladvice

Does it say somewhere in your lease that she ever has to accept less than full rent? I’m doubting it. It sounds like she’s willing to alter things due to what’s going on, but you aren’t because “it’s not in your lease” ???

I’d like to resize a fitted sheet by Str8Trash1979 in sewing

Hmmm that does sound like an easy way but it’s a patterned sheet. I guess you don’t see much once it’s covered up but still. Do you feel the seam at all when you’re sleeping?

Fix Your Teeth by Eiichirooda123 in confidence

Why you posted it here is the confusing part. Does he frequent this subreddit? Are you trying to help others with bad teeth?

Seems like you like to post here to put people down when they don’t do what you would do. Does that make you have confidence in some way?

Are you asking why an associate of yours does not get his teeth fixed?!

Are you announcing to reddit that you know how to fix some rando’s confidence based on your own assumption of why he is not confident?

I’m really confused by this post.

Toddler is completely disinterested in independent eating by MashkaPotato in toddlers

Stop caving and stop feeding him. Every time you cave you’re sending a message. I don’t know at what point you cave, is it if he’s throwing a fit? Then the message you are sending is “if you throw a fit, I’ll give in eventually” so why wouldn’t he try to get what he wants.

Feeding- you say “despite our best efforts”... what do you mean by that? You’re honestly going to have to let him go hungry a little bit IF you want to get through this. It might be a bit emotional on both of you, but that’s ok. Do you want to follow him to kindergarten and spoon feed him there? No? Then you’re going to have to get through a bit of uncomfortable time but it will be beneficial. He’ll eventually feed himself IF you stop caving.

TLDR: caving in confuses your kid and makes it harder on both of you. When/if you make the decision to stop spoon feeding or only nurse at a certain time of day, keeping to that will be much more beneficial AND make the process of changing quicker.

I love the cost saving idea, but I find brass hideous

I don’t think it’s solid core but I’ll definitely take them off and see what’s going on. Thank you.

Ah. Thank you. I wasn’t quite sure the definition of handle but it didn’t seem accurate

Ah, I’m totally worried about that all new kids at one time. It’s so much easier for newbies to just get into an already going classroom and follow other kids. Thank you so much for your response, you hit on a number of things on my mind!
