✏ Rules
- DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
- No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
- No antinatalism struggle sessions

I'm currently listening to "How to Talk so Little Kids Will Listen", and it's pretty good. A lot about validating their feelings. Seems pretty good so far, we're having some trouble with our 3 year old and I think a lot of it is she needs more attention than she's getting right now.
The stuff you learn about effective communication with little kids works on people of all ages. Mirroring tone, validating feelings, genuinely engaging however you can - everyone likes being heard, everyone needs that attention. Let us know how it works!
