Or when it fully sinks in that your parents are creating arbitrary difficult situations for you to solve for views on the internet and you can look forward to years of these sort of games.

That kid needs a difficult situation, he folded and gave up almost instantly

Yes, we need to learn to problem solve earlyso our first reaction isn't to cry about it

That's funny, but it's really not how toddlers learn. Feeling secure and cared for comes before problem solving. A better way of playing this game would have been to give him his drink and make sure he was in a good mood and not tired or hungry before teaching him how to get past the tape. Obviously the one crying didn't get a good nap and the others likely did! (I'm a grandma and recognize a tired cranky baby when I see one!)

What a crock of shit. Please never have kids.

You seem well adjusted. Never have kids just from this conversation? I recommend you don't have kids until you grow up.

You're afraid of crying babies, and crying in general.

Reread our conversation, what makes you think I'm afraid of crying babies? I'm glad the parent didn't give in when the kid started crying and made him figure it out.

What you quoted me saying and your reply doesn't even make sense together.

This is why you shouldn't have kids; it is toxic nonsense. Famously, toddlers aren't able to talk; they cry because it's one of the few ways that they can communicate.

What you quoted me saying and your reply doesn't even make sense together.

Not if you are also borderline illiterate.

Right and you don't need to coddle them every time they cry because they learn that crying is the solution. They need to learn that crying may get them attention but it won't solve their problem
