My first is due later this year and I'd noticed we have no thread for discussing the joys (and not so joyous moments) of parenting. Rather it be sharing heartwarming moments of your little ones, lamenting the hardships of being a parent, seeking parenting advice, discussing disciplinary methods, or whatever, feel free to make your post about being a mother/father (or your inability to succeed at it) here.
 
Protect those kids with all of your heart and obliterate any trannies or other assorted faggots who even think of getting near them. If you do not you will be getting paid a visit from my heartless in the coming future.

For the love of all that is good and holy, never give them an internet capable device and monitor them if it's absolutely necessary for them to use one.
 
Congratulations ❤️
Any parents here who don't have any kind of support of family, what helped you the most? I want to start trying soon myself but I'm absolutely terrified. I unfortunately lost my mom recently and don't have anyone who can give me advice. Do some things come naturally? Is it just common sense? What's something you wish you knew beforehand?
 
Find literally any alternative to public school, and socialize them as much and as early as possible. The amount of mental illness that comes out of our public school system is ridiculous, and that's not even accounting for the indoctrination.

Is it really that bad? With private school so expense it would seem, perhaps overly optimistic, to me that there would be good public schools depending on the county/state/country you're in.
 
im not a parent but i babysitted a lot for my nieces and nephews, and i can say for certainty, that what you decide to show your kids will impact them immensely. so just be knowledgeable about the content you subject them to, i want to put a bullet in every parent that lets their kids watch Cocomelon.
 
Congrats. Being a parent is indeed one of the most challenging, but also most rewarding things ever. ❤️

The first piece of "advice" I like to give expecting parents is that the first week you have your first born child in the house, it is the biggest wakeup call that any human being can experience. All I'm going to say is that you can try to prepare all that you can, but once your baby is home from the hospital and it's just you guys and that newborn, shit gets real. It's an adjustment period and it takes a little bit of time to get into the groove of things. Trust me, this time period can feel intense and overwhelming, but you will settle into a routine and handle it like a pro. You got this!

Also ... Know that during these early years, there's going to be things that you will be happy to see your kid "grow out of" but there's also going to be things that you will miss. For instance, my first born was a cuddle monster, and I basically had to hold him all day long until he was almost one years old. He refused to sleep in the crib during his naps, so I held him. Sure, my days are more free now because he grew out of it and naps independently, but MAN do I miss those snuggles too. Take in the moments, enjoy those moments. These times are precious and the years will pass faster than you'd expect.

And finally, because we live in these modern times, limit the screen time and TV time (especially when the kid is under 2). Trust me, it's worth it. Read a lot of books to your baby, as it will be a great way to bond and a great way for them to develop their speaking/language and memory skills.

It depends. You might know this, but the schools are funded by their district's property taxes, so realistically if you lived in a very affluent, the local schools in your area would be very well-funded schools on par with that of private schools. At the same time though, you're still sending your kids to be taught by probably the worst generation of educators in history. People who weren't competent enough to get jobs in their fields of choice, people who were indoctrinated by college propaganda and think their world view is what is most important to teach the youth, etc. Like if there was one person who'd have a vested interest in turning the next generation against their parents, it would be the people who feel as if society lied to them and forced them into the hell hole that is capitalism.

That being said, as I mentioned, there are well-funded schools in places that aren't that ideologically captured, but remember, if anybody would be a pedo-sympathizing faggot looking to indoctrinate your child, it would be the pedo sympathizing faggot who is given unmonitored access to them for 8 hours a day.
 
And finally, because we live in these modern times,
Thanks for the heads up, honestly I'm old, like really old to have a baby (39) so, on top of concerns I may not have the stamina to keep up with the physical demands of raising a child in another decade, I realize things have changed a lot since I was a kid. I've seen a bit of it with my sister's kids but it just seems like theres a lot to keep up with these days.
 
Please don't just assume their gender, wait until they are old enough to talk and ask them for their pronouns. Also, avoid heteronormativity and gender binary-reinforcing colors like blue or pink. Stick to a nice neutral color like yellow or green.

They don't need a cell phone if they aren't driving yet. Someone else has a device to call mom or 9-11. You can call whomever they're with.

I am OBSESSED with the thought of having children, so as to save the white race, despite having never went on a date, being a kissless hugless virgin (h*ld h*nds when I was like 6 though (peaked in preschool).

Problem is I'm a diagnosed sperg. Autism is hereditary, and on the subject I constantly think to myself "I would Sudden Infant Death Syndrome my child should he be autistic". Really shows how good of a parent I would be.
