    Hunt, gather, parent

    @redeemed121 Same with us! I never did chores during her naps, only with her, and she's allowed to touch everything that isn't dangerous (everything but knives and the fireplace).

    Does sleep training even work?

    @hary89 60000% this. Everyone always says not to judge, but there comes a time when someone just leaving their child to cry and scream for literally hours is neglect.
