saw a woman comforting her sobbing child saying “i already told you, you have to keep looking forward, looking back just gets you hurt” and i thought she was sharing a beautiful life lesson about the importance of letting go of regret and resentment. but it turns out the kid just wasn’t looking where he was going and ran into a wall
Repeat after me: I draw so good. Not everything needs to be a banger. I'm not a content machine I'm a person who makes art and art takes time. Inspiration comes in waves and when it recedes that's when I should let myself rest

The kids gonna stop n get up lmao. U say if u don't get up right now I'm gonna give ya a whip on the arse..1...2...n I bet they'll get up.
No. You remove your child from the scene (because children are often reacting to overstimulation such as the grocery store is too loud, the room is too bright, there’s people they don’t know around, they’ve been there too long etc) and go somewhere quiet. You then sit with them as they cry, reassuring them that you are present, and once they have stopped crying you offer comfort and ask if they know what it is that they were so upset about. Then you calmly talk to them so they - and you - can understand and fix the problem that was the root of the tantrum.
Bad example;‘Why are you crying?’‘I’m hungry’‘Well we’re going home soon!’
Good example;‘Do you know why you were crying?’‘I’m hungry’ ‘We’re at the grocery store to get food. We only have three more aisles to go. We can count them down together. Then we’ll go home and we can eat.’
Children don’t understand ‘soon’; even for adults, ‘soon’ is a relative term. children understand things like ‘three aisles. Two. One. Now we’re going home!’
Children need communication, understanding and teaching. Not beating, intimidating or belittling.
Get therapy.
I’m always amazed by posts like this, because they get mad at the child for “deciding to cry” without once consider that the child has an internal mental state and is unhappy. It just never occurs to make the child no longer unhappy, just to make the child shut up.
Don’t make me tap the sign *the sign says “To a baby, every mild discomfort is the worst thing they’ve ever experienced.”*
when I was six or so, we went on a vacation with my extended family. One of my cousins, a toddler, would scream and cry if her parents ever left without her, which they repeatedly did anyway. My mother gave up entirely on figuring out what to do, and so set her in a room alone to “calm down”. I got in trouble for idk arguing or something and was put in time out. My mother told me I was stuck in the room with my crying cousin until 1: dinner or 2: I got her to stop crying.
“why are you crying?”
“I want my parents”
“theyre not here”
“I want them”
“…. They’re coming back, they just went to the store”
she stopped instantly. She didn’t know they were coming back. She’d been adopted a year ago. Her first parents didn’t come back. No one had told her that these parents always would.
Little kids have minds, just not experience. Treat them like it and youd be amazed how well they respond
Your job as a parent isn’t to make your kids behave. It’s to teach them how to handle the problems they’re having. *That’s* how you get well-adjusted adults.
It’s not your kid’s fault if you don’t know how to help with their problem.
can you get in trouble for remembering a detail about someone
is it normal to notice details

While undoubtedly designed as a research and conservation tool, and probably even valuable as a way for the inland ultra-rich to dine on extra-fresh red snapper, I choose to believe this is just one guy who likes to take his fish for walks.

"you have to buy switch 2 games, don't you think the workers deserve to be paid?" that's not how that works. that's not how any of this works. you dumb motherfucker. they get a salary. they don't get royalties
Also the commercial success of a game doesn’t mean that the employees keep their jobs, just in case anyone’s forgotten about all the closures of studios right after releasing wildly successful games
I will forever be profoundly unimpressed with people who take pride in their unkindness to others
im reaching my fucking limmies bro. im almost at my limmies
Hello I haven’t been in the fandom for a bit—what’s the consensus on Tears of the Kingdom’s story? Feel free to reply/reblog/tag with explanations
EDIT: Please let the fourth option also represent an opinion of the game being bad/FLAWED overall. “Bad” in this sense just encompasses any bigger senses of disappointment or dislike, not irredeemable or horrible.
your unreliable narrator fucking bit me
thats not how they told it
June 5th can't come fast enough
All the posters in the game just look like this to me.
