Link (sort of review… I couldn’t find a review I liked online, but this was close to a decent summary of some key themes): https://www.huffpost.com/entry/how-to-raise-the-happiest-kids-in-the-world_b_59e7a901e4b0432b8c11ec28
After reading the introduction, I told my partner, “we need to move to the Netherlands”. By the end of the book, I still feel envious of the supportive culture for parents and children that was depicted in the book but since I’m not planning on uprooting anytime soon, I will just have to remain envious!
I won’t go into a big summary of the book since you can find one online, but briefly, the authors (US and UK born married to Dutchmen and living in the Netherlands), try to explain how Dutch parenting culture creates children (and adolescents) who scored at the top of the Happiness scale of a 2013 UNICEF study. The book is a decent description of Dutch parenting culture: anecdotes aplenty with some supporting research. The authors reflect on their own childhood, that of their children and filled out the story with interviews (mostly of friends and neighbours but also including some prominent researchers).
Overall, I found the book interesting as I hadn’t known anything about Dutch parenting prior to reading the book. However, most of the applicable advice (as in, advice that foreigners could actually use in their own country and culture) was information I have previously read or learned from my own parents (respect baby’s sleep needs, play, play, play, play outside, education is about learning and broadening your mind not achieving academic perfection, to name a few). There were some random “tips” like how to throw a low-key kid’s birthday and a recipe for Dutch [aka French] Toast; I found these tips a waste of paper and they did not add anything useful since this type of information exists on a million mommy blogs. I hesitate to even call this a “parenting” book because so much of what was most interesting (and probably has the biggest effect on happiness) is ingrained in Dutch culture, education system, government, etc. (like a person who comes to your house after baby arrives everyday for up to two weeks and does cooking, cleaning, and teaches you basic baby care and breastfeeding; or the no-testing and play-based, child-led learning for all of elementary school with a notable lack of competition that is supported by

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Hi guys, so I came across u/CyrusNavarre's post about a Battle Royale between U.S. Senators here:

I thought it was a great idea, so I compiled a list of all of the most popular or distinguished politicians in every state. I limited myself to 4 of each person.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
Or would that be too forward thinking?

As far back as historians have found evidence of transgender people, they’ve found transgender children.
By Jules Gill-Peterson, New York Times, April 5, 2021
Ms. Gill-Peterson is an associate professor of English at the University of Pittsburgh and the author of “Histories of the Transgender Child.”
There’s a story I know of a young transgender girl from rural Wisconsin, who before the age of 5 made it clear enough to her parents that she was a girl, not a boy, that they changed her name and dressed her in girl’s clothes. When the time came for her to go to school, her parents arranged with school administrators for her to attend as a girl. She used the girls’ bathroom and participated in the girls’ 4-H Club. All in all, she was treated with respect, not bullied or shunned.
Maybe you can picture a girl like that today. But can you picture her in the 1930s?
This girl, whom I call Val in the book I wrote on the history of transgender children, socially transitioned, went to school and participated in extracurricular activities over 80 years ago. And she was hardly alone. In my research, I found stories of other transgender children like Val who were able to transition and go to school despite living in times when their identities weren’t commonly acknowledged. They were not forced into transitioning by adults. And they were certainly not transitioning because it was trendy or socially popular.
The high visibility of transgender youth in this country is quite recent, but transgender children themselves are not. Indeed, as far back as historians like me have found evidence of transgender people, we have found transgender children. So why don’t most people know about kids like Val? One reason is that long before there were words like “transgender” to describe these people’s lives, they passed under the radar.
The past several months have witnessed an aggressive legal assault on transgender youth across the country. Dozens of bills presented in over 20 states — and signed into law by governors in several — seek to ban, or sometimes criminalize, transgender children’s access to health care and organized sports. One of the central assumptions underlying these state-level bills is that transgender children participating in sports or needing gender-affirming health care are issues that did not exist until a few years ago, or that transgender childhood is a contemporary trend.
In the Arkansas state legislature, Joseph Backholm, a senior fellow at the Fami

Daughter: I'm hungry

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
