Hello, world!

I'm a father of one infant and one toddler. My stake in this site is to learn from you, and also to contribute as much as I can!

Based on my own childhood and parenthood, my specialties are (among others): twins, languages, and international aspects. For the record, I'm an identical twin and married to a fraternal twin. I speak 4 languages fluently and I've lived in 5 countries (Europe, Japan).

I enjoy using my experience to help others. That is why I am active at even more SE sites in the StackExchange network on topics that interest me.

valuable flair!

Outside of this site, I'm something of a Swiss army knife both professionally and in private, able to juggle a wild variety of things at once. I've worked in every kind of business that uses software. I'm also very good with tools, both IT and mechanic. Whether you need software design or assembling some IKEA furniture, I'm your man for the job. I'm generally soft-spoken but driven by clear principles.

To learn more about me, see my Google+ profile.

+1 for not leaving room for negotiation. It's vital to stand firm on important matters.

comment Punishment for stealing?
Please clarify: Did she steal the items from you, or from a store? The latter is a criminal matter and she definitely needs to learn not to do that - before authorities make things worse by enforcing the law.

Have you seen these existing questions about potty-training and in particular this related question?

3½ years isn't really "baby". And since the question is about a girl, I changed "he" to "she".

@AnishaKaul: Some kids learn this at age 1½, others at 2 or 2½... there is no specific "correct age", it's much more a question of when that particular child is ready.

comment Should we cut our infant's hair?
I realize my question might have been better suited to Skeptics.SE - My son looks funny from behind because lying on the back has worn off most of his back hair except for the outermost fringes which are as long as my fingers.
