parents inside once again


ok....my very strong and resourceful 7.5 month old son is now very mobile and DANGEROUS!!!!

Had a close call yesterday ill spare you(and more importantly ME) from the details of.

Anyways, no harm done, BUT i need some very good cupboard and drawer locks. The kind that allow you to pull it out a little bit and then release a lever are NOT good enough.....i learned that yesterday.

Any suggestions for good products that would fit the bill??

magnetic locks require you to slide a magnet in the right spot to open them.

He doesnt need toughened up......believe me....the kid can take anything. I think being born with the double hernias and fairly extreme colic makes him feel no pain. Ive watched him fall more times than i can count into walls and the railing on his crib so hard his head makes this loud bonk sound..............he either laughs or just rubs his head.......

hes gonna be TROUBLE

Im not a big advocate of spanking in the first place, but even if i was it would be pointless in his case

when he gets old enough we will have no choice but to use the gorilla tape in lieau of beating................

I figure a chain/harness setup to a ceiling bolt will work
