Parenting Tip (dad of 8). Band-aids. Keep a lot of them and use them for ANYTHING. No justification necessary. You want one? You got it. - Divisions by zero

Cracked up on this one
So true. We give our 9 year old a pack for Xmas each year. She’s usually at the end of the line when the next Xmas rolls around. I’ve put bandaids on tummies that feel sick. Win!
To add: Get hydro-seal bandaids. Game changing for healing. You will thank me later.
Dad of 8? Do you need a band-aid?
Nah, we’re good.
Bruh needs condoms
True.
Pro tip… Don’t buy shitty bandages. Go straight up Band Aid or Nexcare. I actually prefer Nexcare.
I’m committed to the fabric ones for sure. No plastic.
Trying to teach kiddo that putting a bandaid on only to take it off a few minutes later is a waste. Not having success with that one.

I know. Gentle reminders that it needs to stay on to work, buy cheaper bandaids if necessary (but I think the cheap ones always give the child a loose edge to pick. I really like the fabric ones, and I buy store brand), but keep using them.

Somehow the child gets a feeling of being cared for, and stays there as a reminder that you care.
