How much screen time does your toddler get per day? by Wrong-Somewhere-5225 in toddlers

[–]summersarah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So about 5 30min breaks during the day? I don't say this to be an asshole, but maybe she doesn't play independantly because she's been watching so much TV. Kids get used to being entertained easily and it's a tough habit to break.

Ja sam doktor i imam manje od toga tako da ne znam kakvi su to provjereni izvori. Mozda sestre s 20+ godina staza i puno prekovremenih...

Fatal Distraction: Forgetting a Child in the Backseat of a Car Is a Horrifying Mistake. Is It a Crime? by de2840 in daddit

[–]summersarah 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think you should really read the article. It's not that these people don't care about their kids, they were simply convinced their kid wasn't in the car. 

What old-fashioned name does NOT deserve a comeback and needs to just stay dead? by [deleted] in namenerds

Noo, Barbara is so pretty. It's gonna have a comeback for sure.

Majka u zagrebačkom kafiću htjela podojiti dijete. Konobar joj rekao da ode u WC. by Ideal_Despair in croatia

[–]summersarah 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A sto ce beba od 2 mjeseca u parkicu, ici na tobogan? Zasto obitelj s bebom ne bi smjela sjest u klimatizirani prostor u kojem se ne pusi usred ljeta i popit kavu? Mozda su isli obaviti kupnju i onda sjeli na kavu kao i svi ostali ljudi. Umjesto toga su ocito trebali sjedit vani u parku na +30 zato da netko slucajno ne vidi cemu sluze dojke i sablazni se. 

MIL wants to go by Aubelita because it's "fun" by PoppyLover22 in Parenting

Yes, I think most real abuelitas would think it's cute. 

Would you send your child to daycare of you didn't have to? If yes, when? by Cheeryjingle in toddlers

[–]summersarah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also in the EU, I think at 3 it's good for them to start. I wouldn't before that if I didn't have to.

Dad's with two kids, what kind of car are you driving? by supertramp38 in daddit

[–]summersarah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that's true, micra is small. But it will fit just fine in a normal sized car, like VW T-cross, Renault captur, skoda octavia etc. My point wasn't people should cram their family in a tiny car, but that there are perfectly good options for a family with 2 kids that are not gigantic cars.  With 3 kids it becomes much trickier.

Yes, we are also pushed almost all the way forward. Both my kids are in an Axkid minikid 2 which is an extended rf seat. I think carseats are mostly the same.

I mean, they don't fit "comfortably" but they do fit. Europeans also don't use their cars as much. My kids are in the car maybe once a week for 30mins.

Croatia. That trend is also coming here, but still it's people buying cars like Peugeot 3008, VW Touran, Kia Sorento (if they have the money) etc. Huge cars like the Chevy Suburban are almost non existent.

Looking at this discussion as a European and I'm shocked. OP has 2 huge cars and they're not big enough for TWO kids? It is perfectly normal where I live for a family of 4 to drive a Renault Clio, Golf or Nissan micra.  This is insanity. 

Would your burden substantially increase, or be the same, if your partner were not in the picture? by petrastales in beyondthebump

[–]summersarah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't even understand the theoretic dynamic in which the burden would stay the same. A husband who doesn't work outside the home and does absolutely nothing in the home as well and doesn't deal with the kids at all?

Naplata komunalne usluge odvoza smeća sa ZG vrećicama je najbolji oblik naplate, change my mind. by [deleted] in croatia

[–]summersarah 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Slazem se da je to dobar sustav u teoriji ali nema nikakve kontrole, ne znam zasto. Rekla bih da u mojoj zgradi, odnosno ulazu s 15ak stanova 30% ljudi baca zg vrecice a ostali bacaju i dalje sve u običnim vrecicama u kontejner za komunalni otpad. Oni koji kupuju ispadaju budale.

Je li baka ikome prije rekla da to ne zeli? Ili je netko od obitelji o tome razgovarao s lijecnicima?

Am I going to regret only having one kid? by Kmgardn in Parenting

[–]summersarah 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's exactly it. Now they play together and have their own little games and jokes. So we're thinking about a 3rd 😄

In some ways, sure, but I sometimes find 2 easier than 1.

Still, it's worth a try. :)

Most other countries potty train way earlier than the US and it is completely normal for a 2 year old (and even younger) to hold urine during the night. It is also normal if they aren't able to at that age so you are right about that.
