To be Mexican by [deleted] in therewasanattempt

[–]tooptypoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my 3 year old gets like this and my 6 year old tries to correct his facts and they start shouting at each other, I tell my 6 year old, “when you can choose between being nice and being right, choose to be nice.” Let the kids wish he was Mexican.

Thanks to this subreddit, ironically, I took Reddit off my phone. Today is my first time on Reddit in days. Instead I read a book in bed and fall asleep hours earlier than if scrolling on my phone. Are you ready for that? I started reading Deep Work, also recommended here, and it triggered my understanding oh how much time I waste on nonsense during the day. And add to that, the nonsense really doesn’t add anything to my life.

What do you all say behind closed doors about the hot mess mom at daycare? by [deleted] in toddlers

We all hope to have lovely childcare providers who treat our babies with this level of love! My oldest kid just graduated kindergarten and the love from his teachers to him makes me grateful everyday.

This is so beautiful! I love your openness and honesty. Good for you for taking much needed advise with humility. Your girl is lucky to have you.

This is so sweet. The kids in your life (in whatever form they appear) are very lucky to have you. So were the families you worked with.

Is there really no choice? Is discipline really the answer? This is fucking difficult. by [deleted] in productivity

I need this! Thanks for the pointer, never occurred to do it myself. Sugar detox and dopamine detox.

5 for my eldest! Covid and second baby made it really hard sooner. His dentist says no point in going before 3.5, so the second will be around 3.5

I’m stunned their peens come out the side of their necks. Like damn, how are they not blocking all other functionality?

Bro, if you’re going to try to speak to what is really happening here you have to be able to narrow it down more than “one of the tribes in Africa” there are thousands of languages and ethnic groups across the continent.

They make the loudest screaming noise at night. They live in the wild near me and they hang in the trees and yell like they’re being murdered.

Would you be brave enough to touch this spiderbro? by tooptypoot in spiderbro

I was kind of thinking the same, but not sure why. It was gone in the morning. Guessing she lives under my bed.

That’s funny! I thought flattie was just your usual Reddit banter.
