  • Using the word “refused” assigns negative intent to the kid. And maybe the kid did refuse(“I don’t like those toys”), but I find that unlikely it they started playing with them at daycare. Maybe there are toys at home they prefer. Maybe, as others have stated, its more of an environment thing. Most kids, even when they start to be conversational, lack the vocabulary to fully express themselves. They learn to say what they don’t like earlier than saying what they do like, and will often use black/white terminology even when the feeling is more nuanced.







  • Maybe it depends on your model(like it was poorly designed or something), but in general the soap compartment should deploy precisely when it needs to. But, hey, if it’s working for you then who am I to say otherwise

    I am currently on the other side - my soap compartment broke, and so I have to throw the packet in the bottom of my washer. It works… okay. The problem is, most of the soap goes out with the pre-rinse. So I often have dishes that I have to re-wash by hand now, versus never having to do that before. I dream of the day where I fix my soap dispenser.
