one is sleeping next to me. he's 15 months old. the other is in bed with my 8mos pregnant wife one room over. we were all in the wyoming king until two weeks ago: the 15 month old could win a break dancing olympic medal in his sleep and has a penchant for headbutting her belly. have a family, a real family, and dont let any authority tell you that you need to make your kids suffer, cry, or feel isolated/lonely "for their own good." our entire culture is immensely cruel to babies and children, which in turn makes them miserable; all the complaining you hear about babies being loud and annoying is because of that misery.  do not vax at all, supplement breastfeeding with 100% organic no onions no seed oil no corn formula (bobbie is the only good one in the us), and refuse 100% of medical procedures in the hospital if mom and baby are healthy (heel prick blood test, eye shit, all shots including vitamins). cosleep until they are 2 or 3, do not be a fat miserable slob. don't drink or do any drugs while your kids are in your house. invest in a california or wyoming king bed for your whole family. always clean and dress your baby in attractive clothes and ensure they have a suitable haircut as early as possible so other people will react favorably to them and they'll engage with them and with life.  it seems like a lot of work, and it kind of is some of the time, but whatever you put into your kids, they will return you ten thousand fold. if you make their lives fulfilling and you enable their curiosity and exploration, you will have a beautiful and passionate family that will make you fear and shun death as you should.
