Go rub some dirt in it, kid

That will be what I say as a parent. Make it my catchphrase. Maybe I’ll call him baw instead of kid

If it's a boy name him Baw, if it's a girl, Bawdrey.

Not that I disagree with you, but let's be fair. The infant mortality rate is much lower in modern times and in civilized countries.


I agree. That's why I commented on vaccines. We've curbed the infant mortality rate with our vaccines. Antibiotics can sometimes be necessary but generally speaking we are now over-prescribing our kids.

We are not germophobes, kid goes to daycare and we have a dog, etc.. but my son has a weird reaction to Oats... so strange.

Peanut butter was invented by the government to keep the white man down just like heroin


Two white men stole George Washington Carver's recipe for peanut butter, copyrighted it, and reaped untold fortunes from it. While Dr. Carver died penniless and insane, still trying to play a phonograph record with a peanut.

If I had lactose or peanut allergies I would be freaking screwed.

Oh no, they don't know if he does so they just don't let him eat seafood.


I know a couple who fed their son peanut butter for the first time while sitting in their car right outside of an ER.

Ya know, in case he was allergic.
I hear this isn't uncommon.

I'm allergic to nothing, but I was constantly sick up until around 4 or so. I did allergy testing around then too, which probably helped with my no allergies now.

Both of my kids live with runny noses and I know my son is allergic to dogs and something outside, which is unfortunate because he loves dogs and only wants to be outside.

We are hoping that by continually exposing him in small doses he grows out of it. He just turned two so he hasn’t had peanut butter yet, but that’s something we will be trying very soon

Idk anyone with a food allergy


Odds are you do or did but don't know about it. Most people with food allergies are children and outgrow them by adulthood. I did, now I'm a fat boy
