This is all sex education though. Nobody is saying you should be showing porn to toddlers, but age appropriate sex education comes from when they can speak. Names for body parts, the underwear rule, how a baby is born, this is all normal stuff you can teach pre-schoolers.

It's like those doomsday cults that have to change the date after each time the world doesn't end, first they said everyone would drop dead in weeks, then months, I think now they're claiming that it's a slow burner like smoking.

Nah, I've never been in the monkey house chewing ginger roots, they know this stuff, or work it out, not sure which really.

Parents used to teach, if you read in the dark (on paper, not on a screen, I must add), you’re ruining your eyes. But if you think about it: wtf does low light do to your eyes? By that logic, you’re constantly ruining your eyes while sleeping.

The theory is that frequently straining your eyes is an issue, so reading in conditions that are difficult to see in will weaken them, not that dark itself hurts your eyes.

Met aren't wrong here, the court documents have been released to the public, but they're not new information. He went to court over the one accusation, and if there was enough weight to the others he'd have gone over them too.

That's not to say any are untrue, just it needs significant evidence to convict someone in court, if that isn't there then there's nothing they can do.

I'm wondering if there's a medical condition here. What is happening to need showers between tampons?

Bleach and ammonia makes chloramine which is a poisonous gas, so that's 3 times you'd be dead.

A 3 year old needs structured play so you have two choices here, firstly find a seperate adult to do the things the younger child needs, or secondly you can do the same activity but tier it. So say you want to teach the older child to paint with watercolours, that's cool, get the younger one some paints too but they aren't learning techniques but maybe being given a colouring page and working on painting between the lines.

Maybe the older one wants to play pokemon, get the little one an age appropriate game or interactive story on the ipad and help them both.

You are allowed to get in the bath while it's running.

I would definitely isolate, it's still dangerous. My friends mom died about 2 weeks ago from Covid. It's not super difficult, you can order your shopping in and Amazon brings everything else.

That is allowed. Kids are allowed to do small jobs outside school hours, paper rounds, dog walking, babysitting, all fine jobs for teens.

A full time job that denies them an education is exploitative.

Tip of the nose, super sensitive so will hurt like hell, weird shaped so hard to do anything good, and it's right in the centre of your face so it's a jobstopper.
