I’m not sure expecting two year olds not to pull over dressers is unreasonable

Lucky though it was that cheap toysrus or Walmart pressed stuff stuff

If it had been Bellini it coulda been bad

I’ve got five

My first was a two pound preemie that woke up every 45 minutes till doc gave us dope for her at 5 months so she slept in a SIDS canoodle with us

The rest were in Crib 15 feet down the wood floor hallway next to us from after two weeks home from birth

I would have heard it but some folks don’t wake up easy

They obviously are attentive folks cause they kept video in there they could see I guess while they watched tv or made the beast with two backs

Don’t be too hard on them

Things sometimes happen despite best efforts

I have to admit that I'm even worse than a "hover parent": I'm an MV-22 Osprey parent! I have raised three sets of kids: 1st marriage; one daughter - second marriage, two stepsons - third (and final) marriage I have a son and daughter (currently 9 and 11 respectively). I love the company of my kids but have that oldest-of-ten-children memory of how seriously in trouble kids can get when they are just out of reach.

They don't sleep in my bed, but their bedrooms are on the same floor and the doors stay open so I can hear everything and I am a VERY light sleeper as time in Vietnam will do for you. I also have all of the state-of-the-art safety devices on all harmful items/chemicals and all firearms are well secured. Trust but verify, as they say.
