This is excellent. I've tried to explain to my mil a million times how two blue eyes can still have brown eyed baby when mothers side are all brown eyed. Genetic throw backs happen!!

Which is why true siblings can have different looks and even different DNA. MY brothers and I are a perfect example. Mom was half Choctaw and half Chickasaw (full blood Native). Father was Cherokee/Welsh by his father and Scots/Irish by his mother. Brother 1. Dark hair, dark skin, blue eyes and maternal fathers (Choctaw) features) Brother 2. Spitting image of mothers Great grandfather Dark hair, dark eyed and dark skin. Me. Baby sister, mothers features, black eyes, medium skin, and Paternal Grandmother's Red hair. (actually a very dark auburn). Genetics are weird.

Recessive green?

I'll stick to "look at all the cute fishies", tyvm

This also works with people and peoples when talking about multiple distinct sub-populations like tribes.

TIL

They should have something showing this in ever Ob/Gyn office and waiting room so the Dads can see it too.

No thanks

Men just have no idea—-and they would die if it they were the ones giving birth and dilating like this. No wonder so many “manly men” faint dead away watching their wives give birth.

NOPE

My son's head was 16 cm. He ripped end to end.

Find a Mom... cannot upvote enough.

This is all a pretty good advice but nowadays it wouldnt be surprising to give even a pre-school child a mobile phone or even better .. some sort of lte smartwatch made for kids. Of course these things can fail ( unable to carry and not lose a phone .. unable to answer calls on watch .. most of them still allow to request the location remotely, keep wearing and charging it etc .. yes probably the parent would have to check that daily ) but its another possible step. I think actually slipping an AirTag onto a child (as a parent ofc ) is a valid tactic. Not sure if a normal one or a silenced one would be better. If it beeps and an adult is there to read the airtags info via NFC its a plus .. if the child ends up throwing away the airtag they found .. a silent one might be better.

Why just find a "Mom with kids?" - that's sexist and leaves out other capable of helpful adults to protect the child and look for his/her parent/s. Sheesh.

My parrot could do as well.

These ‘change your language’ graphs are silly, sometimes a more aggressive tone is needed.

I hate the stop crying

When my mom taught high school English and someone was swearing for obvious attempted shock value she asked them to write the same sentence they just said ten different ways, same intensity, using words that don't include swears. She also accepted it when one student said that she could make it softer, but swears were still appropriate.

I think a stern "We don't talk like that," is far superior to just requesting of the child "Please use kind words" (oh pretty please little one, if you feel like it, if you don't mind, please use kind words - unless you don't want to). You don't have to be mean, but you can be firm.

But children need to learn how to interact with others who don't spare their feelings as well

Feel along the breastbone (sternum). Compressions should be on the lower third of it. Compressions need to be 1/3 the depth of the chest. If you break ribs that can be fixed. Doing the Compressions properly is more likely to preserve life than being too scared to break ribs. DO NOT BEND ELBOWS LIKE YOU SEE ON TV. Proper CPR is a bit brutal. Also, you need to bring the jaw forward to open the airway.

Well, I"m doomed. My nipples are no longer in the place they used to be.

They don't teach compressions on female gendered mannequins, which is resulting in a fear of "touching" a real female and getting sued, which is resulting in MORE females dying due to not getting help from bystanders. This is the same for Paramedics and other professionals. The mannequins need to have breasts that "flop" like real ones to teach people that experience, to get them past that fear so they can really make a difference and improve outcomes.

How many churches need to push lawmakers to exempt them from reporting these crimes before people see the truth about those churches? Mormons, Catholics, Muslims, etc I'm looking at you.

I wish this was around when I was small.

I could have used something like this. For much of my life I thought the parent of any type of cousin was an aunt/uncle. So for a long time I was calling the parents of my first cousins once removed aunt/uncle. Nobody corrected me. Well, until the one, a local country singer, performed at our school and I announced to all, very proudly, "He's my uncle".
