@JFergusonAU Would you cut in half at the waist east/west or down the middle north/south? I think it’s hard nose north/south to ESTABLISH the run again.
New research indicates that fathers build bonds best with their children (and craft secure attachment in them) by "destablizing the child" in a "safe environment. Fathers in the study had a unique ability to make their children laugh and therefore create more perceived safety for the child which led to stronger attachment. Mothers made children feel safe too, usually with repetition and soothing, but the laughing and playing did not make the children as attached as it did when fathers performed it.
Several things jump out from this at me:
First, a father who is relaxed enough to laugh and play indicates a safe environment. Fathers are biologically the providers of safety, so if dad is relaxed, the world must truly be safe. Children may be picking up on this.
Second, being worthy of a father's time and attention is a huge marker for kids. A father's attention may actually mean more in many cases, as we've seen in other studies. The bond with mom is equally as important, but sometimes the bond with mom is taken for granted, where the bond with dad is taken as remarkable due to perceived other demands on his time.
What this means: Dads, you've got to be playing with your kids. As silly and disruptive as possible. They need this from you. It's one of the strongest ways they can bond to you.

@xray_media@Acyn Genuinely curious - how realistic is it that between late January inauguration, any sort of meaningful policy has been implemented reducing vaccines lead directly to the first measles death in 20 years in < 8 months?
@Zblackerby On that front - would be very curious to know cams succes/fail rate in 2010 on less than 3 yards to go. Gut feels like it was 90%+ which can’t be right… if so has to be some of the best ever for that metric?
@Zblackerby If it’s 4th and goal, from the 1 yard line, down 4, 0:01 on the clock in the 4th quarter…. I’m LIVID if the ball goes to a RB if the year happens to be 2010. Bo is the correct answer otherwise.
