Babies fucking love being tossed around. They demand it until your arms are jello. Their giggles are totally worth it, though.
I used to "body slam" my niece and nephew into the couch all the time (not actually at full speed of course). Give them the 'ol peoples elbow. They really do get a kick out of some rough housing.
Do you remember how well you could rebound from physical activity as a child? They're like little balls of rubber. I practically look at a trampoline and break an ankle and there they are doing all kinds of flips and shit.
my niece cries when I won't let her chew on paint chips.
The children yearn for the mines
Difference is, being tossed around is developmentally important for babies and toddlers.
yeah, if you're the adult in the room, it's your job to figure out how to do it safely. you don't just let toddlers do whatever the fuck they want because it makes them giggle
You seemed to take issue with tossing around babies as a general concept.
Lol right? There are ways to play with them that keeps them safe.
being allowed to chew on things is very important for young children. notice how I don't let them chew on things that they shouldn't though? that's how the adult brain is supposed to function
