I watch gentle parenting and Montessori teaching videos on TikTok because I love children and they're so wholesome. But fully half the comments are always like "I'm not doing this, I can't stand that whining", "I don't have the patience for this", "I'd ask the hospital for a refund lol", and my favourite, "Respectfully, this is why I don't want kids".

It is not actually fucking respectful to get on a video about being kind to children just to say "yeah no fuck that". You don't have to be a parent, but sometimes you're going to have to deal with children because you share a society with them, and they will be loud and annoying because they are children. You are still morally, ethically and humanly obligated to interact kindly with them and object to caregivers who react punitively. You are obligated to try and empathize with the child because you are a whole adult and they are new to planet earth. Of course they're annoying and irritating, even I have the urge to snap when I first hear those tantrums. I watch these videos to learn to deal with that irritation and look beyond it to empathize with the overwhelmed child. It's a training in compassion and patience for those with less capacity and agency than you. If you don't want to use this controlled example that you can scroll away from to learn that then why are you even commenting?

And they're still better than the people who do already have kids and are planning to have them but can't stop announcing that they prefer to power trip and visit pain and humiliation on humans in their smallest, most vulnerable form who depend on them to survive.

Maybe if these people's own parents had bothered to teach them how to deal with their own shit instead of behaviour modelling assholery they would also be functional adult humans with more patience than a toddler by now.

When completing a new crochet plushie I think to myself “it can’t get cuter than this”

and then I make something like this bengal tiger cub plushie and it’s like I’m competing with myself

And I think “okay well now it really can’t get cuter than this.”

I’m unsure how i will ever be able to top this level of cuteness again…but it could happen!!!

Toddler - Numbered Peg Boards

Look at that focus! The Numbered Peg Boards help toddlers develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination as they grasp and place the pegs into the holes. The numbered pegs introduce early math concepts, such as one-to-one correspondence, counting, and number recognition. Additionally, independence and self-confidence are fostered as students complete this work on their own, all while promoting cognitive and physical development.

Today, we met a guy whose from Arizona but has 2 kids and has lived here in Spain for 5 years. His kids are in a Montessori school that teaches both English and Spanish and it’s only $350 per month !!!!

I was like holy forking shit, are you for real???? The same program ENGLISH ONLY is 1200$ per month in the USA.

I want to cry. Why did my ancestors leave Spain for the stupid new world 😭😭😭
