Wife and I were in the backyard doing some yardwork... My kid opens the door, yelled "Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom!" And she replied each time until she yelled "I'm right here, what!" and then Teagan goes.... "nothing". This happened twice today. Just had to laugh at such a kid/parent moment.

 

Did he maybe fall out of bed? Or maybe a sleepwalker? Hope he's okay.

 

Something similar happened with my 3 year old. Was limping and crying that his leg hurt. We had no idea why. Got X-rays and some how he had inflammation in his hip. They just gave him pain medicine and said no running or jumping for a few days. He seems to be fine now but he hasn’t really had a chance to run and jump yet

 

We took my dog for a walk last night. Only thing I can think of is - he likes to walk on the snow mounds - that his foot got stuck in a frozen snow pile and he tweaked his ankle, then went to bed without ‘walking it off’ and it stiffened up on him while in bed for 11 hours.

By mid-afternoon he seemed fine. He’s been walking/running on it sincewith no problems.

 

Does anyone here have children with special needs?

 

No, but my wife is a BCBA(in a nutshell she works with children on the spectrum and other developmental disabilities). Do you need help with something? I can ask her

 

super nice of you to offer. but no, im gold. my son has a developmental disability, wondering if any other parents in here were in the club so to speak. :)

 

Anytime! I’m so sorry but I’m sure he is amazing.

 

Not something one really apologies for haha but I appreciate the sentiment. :)

 

I want to punch the creator of pepa pig in his fucking face.

 

I have no idea what that is...so yay for me.

Now Curious George on the other hand...

 

imagine a saccharine sweet family with a baby that NEVER FUCKING STOPS CRYING. also british accents.

 

Holy....moly...

 

Yeah we don't have cable so my son watches Netflix. Loves Word Party, Super Wings, Dino Trux

 

I think my son has kind of grown out of Peppa Pig. He's 3. He'll still reference it every now and then, but he never asks to watch it anymore. He's more into watching movies now...obsessed with the Cars movies and Minion movies. Still really big into Mickey Mouse and Puppy Dog Pals

 

Curious George is such a bad example and always gets praised for it in the end. Hate him.

 

I agree. Also, it cannot be understated how incompetent the man in the yellow hat is. It is truly shocking.

 

My 3-year-old is starting to call us 'mom' and 'dad' instead of 'momma' and 'dada' and it's SUPER sad because he's starting to sound all grown up

 

curious george sucks, but what pisses me off is that they make the man with a yellow hat off to be some rich rockstar yet hes supposed to be a professor. i'm a professor, i certainly dont own a condo in manhattan and a summer house in the country.

 

He must be rich to afford a monkey!

 

but he's a fucking professor. professors are broke by definition. (90% of the time)

 

Potty training tips for a kid who refuses?

 

How old are they?

 

I wish I could get my son to eat without having to trick him with reverse psychology.
