I'm a software engineer because I love figuring stuff out and couldn't imagine doing anything else.

How can I keep a 14 month old busy at some activity for longer than 3 minutes Alternatively you can wait until they are 4 years old at which point they will have double the attention span! Just imagine, 6 entire minutes of peace and quiet. We can all dream. |

3 year old has a fit when arriving at daycare Fixed some typos and spelling. Edited one line for clairity (too much him/her made it hard to read) |

3 year old has a fit when arriving at daycare That is brilliant advice! I never liked the "sneak out" that my son's first day care provider would encourage. I tended to ignore her but always felt strange doing so. I had to balance what I felt was right with what a professional was telling me. Your line about temporarily making things easier for the parent and the provider was particularly poignant. |

Our 4 year old won't fall asleep until 11pm Ahaha, I had to laugh at "She doesn't sleep in late, and is up by 9:30 every day." I think most parents would agree that a 4 year old sleeping till 9:30 is late. Most parents would also kill for such a luxury ;-) |
