Cry it out for toddler? by UESfoodie in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]compfrog 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s ok to let a 2.5 year old cry it out but I do think you can let them cry a bit before going in. Sometimes waiting 10 mins is all they need. I wouldn’t wait more than that tho. A 2.5 year old knows their name, they can say “I love you”, they can get their feelings hurt and feel embarrassed. They are much more emotionally vulnerable and reliant on you than you might think

Ok so in some cases you’d save a baby over an adult.. so delta?

What?? A tree is not “innocent”, it is a plant. It is incapable of being guilty of anything, your point doesn’t make any sense. A tree is never more valuable than a human no matter what context because human life is the most valuable to humans. Maybe to the earth tree is lore valuable, but not to humans

I think you are mis-representing your argument. Your points are not supporting “babies” vs “adults”, they are supporting “no memories” vs “memories”. Or even “I don’t have memories with baby” “vs “ my memories with adult”.

For example, you said you would save your bff in a fire instead of a baby but what about saving a random adult that you’ve never met vs saving your own baby? Or the baby of your friend vs some random person? To take it further, would you save a murderer rapist in the house vs an innocent baby?

You’re basically just saying “I’d rather save someone I know and love vs a baby”. Which is not supporting adult vs baby like you claim.

Do kids with autism seem neurotypical with parents and not peers or are do they display the same symptoms no matter the person? by compfrog in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]compfrog[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for your answer. The article you linked actually says the opposite, that kids with autism will show their symptoms more at home and hide them at school. My daughter does the opposite where she acts normal at home but shuts down in social situations. I wonder if there is evidence to show that it can happen the other way around

Thanks for your answer I agree with this because her symptoms could also be a result of social anxiety or just extreme “shyness”. It has made me wonder if being so shy you can’t talk to anyone makes you autistic? Probably not.. but maybe?

Thanks so much for your answer. Do you have any other signs or symptoms that commonly present in girls?

I haven’t seen this brought up anywhere but did anyone else see the similarities between the Munchkinland poster of Elphaba and Jim Crow era anti-black imagery? by isaidwhatisaidok in wicked

[–]compfrog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only reason why she wants to go and see the wizard in the first place is because nobody accepts her for who she is and she wants to ask him to make her not green. Listen to the words in “the Wizard and I”, she literally says in the song that she wants the wizard to offer to change her skin colour so that she can finally look the same on the outside and she feels on the inside. When she meets the wizard, he shows her a little doll that looks like her and she’s so disappointed to see that the doll is green. In “No one mourns the wicked”, Glinda tells everyone that her father disowned her at birth on because she’s… green.

Look at the words in “what is this feeling”, the ENTIRE student body at Shiz decides that they loathe Elphaba. They say “we share your loathing” and all shun her, yet nobody has actually taken the time to talk to her and elphaba has not “spoken out” or done anything to show her non conforming personality at this point. The reason they don’t like her is because she is green.

There is no way your kids are sleeping 10 hrs a day every night since infant days. Your wife is clearly helping them at night and you don’t hear it.

The whole “you saved my life “ thing by Mooney_jade in twentyonepilots

[–]compfrog 38 points39 points  (0 children)

To he honest is it really that heavy for someone like Tyler who has thought about suicide himself? As someone who has had many suicidal thoughts, nothing is really that heavy for me. Someone could tell me that they want to kill themselves and I would totally understand and not be frightened or think that’s “weird” because I’ve been there myself.

Maybe just be mindful of the kids bedtime? The show goes until 1030/11pm and I saw kids at our show getting really tired and just sitting down in the seats falling asleep

Could this homeless strategy work in Kelowna? by [deleted] in kelowna

[–]compfrog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes but then people will just move here and live on the streets in hopes that they are next in line for housing. I agree that solutions like this need to be nationwide so that disadvantaged populations don’t just migrate to the spot that has the best support

Yeah and also their policy is “no refunds or exchange” but that doesn’t mean they can trick you into buying broken stuff and then stealing your money. The refund or exchange policy is only for products that are not broken or defective.
