  2. Does your baby seem to nap best when they’re lying on your chest? You are NOT alone! 😴⁣ ⁣ I’m Brooke a Pediatric NP 👋🏼 Follow @simplywell.baby to learn more about your baby or toddler.⁣ ⁣ It’s common for babies to nap on their caregivers, especially when they’re small & when they’re not feeling well as older babies or toddlers.⁣ ⁣ 🙅🏻‍♀️It does not lead to a spoiled baby. ⁣ ⁣ 💁🏿‍♀️It may allow your baby to get a good nap. ⁣ ⁣ 🙅🏼‍♀️It is not your baby manipulating you. ⁣ ⁣ 💁🏾‍♀️It might be comforting for your baby. They are able to hear the familiar sound of your heartbeat. ⁣ ⁣ 🙅🏽‍♀️Is not safe if you are napping too. You need to monitor them. Set yourself up with a television show or a good book that you’ve been wanting to read. ⁣ ⁣ 💁🏻‍♀️They will be outgrown. Many babies outgrow contact naps between 4 & 8 months of age. Though older babies & toddlers usually will find your chest quite comforting if they don’t feel well. ⁣ ⁣ 💤If your baby wants to always nap on you and you prefer that they don’t, you can get them to nap in a crib with patience and consistency. ⁣ ⁣ 👇🏼 Comment below if your baby naps on you?⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ Disclaimer: The American Academy of Pediatrics says that the safest place for your baby to sleep is on their back on a firm mattress, without any pillows or blankets, and in close proximity to you. ⁣ ⁣ 🥰Did you find this helpful?

  2. “The real danger is not that computers will begin to think like humans, but that humans will begin to think like computers.” Sydney Harris I don’t find as much value in social media as I used to these days, mostly because it has become severely perverted by AI which has majorly taken out much of the authenticity and creativity. Don’t get me wrong, there are some things that I do still find helpful, and there are some genuine humans and creators out there that are still sharing wonderful wisdom and beautiful artwork and creativity, but more and more, a lot of the content is becoming like an overwhelming digital slop or “junk food”. Not to mention the amount of harm that it’s doing to our kids and parents just keep handing over these devices, with an illusion of “parental controls” not understanding that really doesn’t make much of a difference in terms of what it’s doing to your child’s brain and the risks that exist either way with putting the weight of these devices onto their shoulders. You won’t find me spending as much time on here, or posting nearly as much at all as I used to, as I’m pouring more of my time and energy into my family and my community, where I just think it matters more. This post, though, this felt relevant enough for me to take a few minutes to put together for anyone else who may be feeling similar. ❤️ “I FEAR THE DAY THAT TECHNOLIGY WILL SURPASS OUR HUMAN INTERACTION. THE WORLD WILL HAVE A GENERATION OF IDIOTS.” ALBERT EINSTEIN

  2. If you’re looking for a deep dive into this topic, with concrete examples from my own parenting community, you can find it in my newest Substack piece — the link in bio takes you there! As someone who’s done a lot of organizing with children, I get asked “how do you do it?” a lot. At root these questions are testament to the way in which caregiving creates in us a drive to build a world that gives more care. But long work hours, limited childcare, and household responsibilities make finding time for organizing meetings, or even finding the right organizing meetings to go to, let alone participating in direct action that might get you arrested, feel virtually impossible for the average parent. This is where I think it’s important to challenge us to get back to basics about how we are in community in the first place. Learning how to radically be in community is a potent political act in an industrialized, capitalist culture that has eroded collectivism and connection in favor of individualism and isolation, that has siloed us into “nuclear” families who are responsible only to ourselves. It is the kind of work that will get us ready for the world to come, the world we or our children or our children’s children will have to build on the remains of the unsustainable empires that now teeter on the verge of collapse, because in the end it is the only world that can be. You know the phrase, “we keep us safe?” This is the work that allows that to be more than a slogan. Because all the organizing in the world is for naught if at the end of the day we don’t actually know how to care for each other. As kids get older, the possibilities for more “traditional” political mobilization become more accessible. But it’s always easier if you already are rooted in a community who can support you in it. In that way, radically committing yourself to the work of community building comes full circle. Head to the substack to keep reading.

  3. If there’s anything I’ve learned in the last 16 years of parenting, it’s that kids don’t feel safe because you shield them from the oppression and injustice of the world.   They feel safe because you stand up against it.  Children are some of the most marginalized people in our society; they are inherently drawn to justice. Raising your baby in an environment of liberation is good for your baby! And while linking liberation struggles to sleep is in some ways it tongue in cheek, in other ways it’s not. Most Western narratives around #infantsleep reflect the demands of colonial capital more than they reflect the needs of infants (or their parents). It’s no coincidence that the field of developmental psychology and “parenting experts” (most of whom were yt men who had no direct experience parenting) flourished contemporaneously with industrial capitalism. Most of the “sleep training” theories that still haunt us today ultimately serve colonial capitalist demands for worker productivity more than anything else, and rely on us internalizing the message, from our earliest moments, that biologically and developmentally appropriate needs for connection don’t matter or must be “trained” out of us. Colonial / industrial capitalism has spent a lot of effort fracturing kin networks into individual consumers, leaving new parents alienated from tradition and support and vulnerable to myths that further its agenda: that we cannot trust our instincts, that we are ultimately alone and only responsible to ourselves, that the solution for most things is consumption. It’s continuing to rely on these message to currently manufacture consent for g3noc*de. Disrupt it. Your baby will thank you.

  1. One of the greatest gifts we can give our children is the solid ability to analyze, weight facts, and draw rational conclusions. In a post truth, post facts, post all sorts of things culture, the arts of logic and rational thought are becoming exceedingly rare...and necessary. We live in a culture that constantly bombards us with messages about what we should think. Our children especially are exposed to everything and its opposite regarding what they should think and believe about themselves, others, in the world. It is far more important to teach our children how to think than teaching them what to think. If our children are equipped with the skills needed to think through facts, social messages, and all of the information that flows past them, the “what” will take care of itself. We can show our kids what it looks like to form opinions and positions based on facts rather than assumptions. We can show them how to relate to others based on factual observation and patterns rather than stereotypes, beliefs, and assumptions. We can teach our kids what it means to ask great questions and dissect things through the Socratic method. We can teach our children logic and rational progression through ideas. We can teach our children to distinguish between facts and stories. We can teach our children how to effectively engage the world and draw their own solid, rational conclusions. . . #raisingboys #raisingdaughters #raisingreaders #margaretmead #raisingstronggirls #raisingsons #dadlife #dadlifeisthebestlife #singledad #singledadlife #yogafamily #christianfamily #familyvalues #valuesmatter #homeschoollife #fatherandson #fatherhood #parentingtips #parentingadvice #divorceddad #bonusdad
