I'm a parent with a 9-month old baby looking to chat with other parents. Can you recommend fedi accounts of parents with younger children who talk about parenting? (There may be many silent parents on here.)
Bonus points if they ride bikes / avoid cars, are passionate about climate justice, are COVID conscious / interested in public health, or concerned about LLMs & surveillance capitalism (all relatively common on fedi no doubt, despite conditions in the outside world).

@skyfaller Sadly those days are past for me now but happy to chat about this

@Lyle @skyfaller Yeah my kid is almost a teenager now, but still I do remember stuff from back then.
@adriano @Lyle @skyfaller Same here. I have two teens now, but those first few years were a seismic re-shaping of my life and soul. Are you wrestling with anything in particular right now?
Replying to @coreysnipes@hachyderm.io
@coreysnipes @adriano @Lyle Well right now baby won't sleep unless Mom is feeding her to sleep, baby won't let me help at all. Very inconvenient since I'm the housedad and I was previously taking care of her nap times all day.
Being a full-time caregiver is also a personal challenge.

@skyfaller @coreysnipes @adriano @Lyle well both my children are teenagers now, but both had those phases were they only wanted one parent, but they also had phases were they only wanted the other parent.
I know one always questions oneself in the phase one is not wanted, but rest assured, it will pass.
