Here are a few parenting tips or just things we do for our children because this is what we think is best as of February 2008.
#1 We don’t let them watch TV because their brain wirings are not complete. Children need live human interaction.
#2 We do not feed them any form of soy, soya, soy milk. We think they are detrimental to human health.
#3 We do not vaccinate our children. We think vaccination is detrimental to human health. Our research shows that all vaccination statistics are lies to make $$$ for pharmaceutical companies. We think doctors are brainwashed or make too much money to give this up. The healthiest child we have is the one with absolutely ZERO vaccination and zero drugs consumed.
#4 We don’t give pharmaceutical medications to our children. No artificial vitamins. No artificial supplements. We just give them fresh, raw, fruit veggies and meats. Expensive but it works.
#5 We don’t give them processed foods. All foods must be prepared by us. We trust only ourselves. So in case of parties we stuff the kids before we arrive at the parties.
#6 We give them lots of good fats like extra virgin olive oil, buko meat, cow fat including bulalo, goat fat skin in kinilaw, fish fat with raw fatty fish salmon and tuna and other kinilaw, raw egg yolks (when they are older).
#7 We make sure our soap is of vegetable origin, not petroleum (detergents), we stay away for SLS (Sodium Laurel Sulfate).
#8 We do not use flouride toothpaste… flouride is a poison!
#9 We do reverse osmosis on our own water, we have a TDS meter and our reading is 2 to 4 TDS.
#10 Sleeping time is 8 pm.
#11 The children sleep beside us, in the same room. I think the US norm of kids sleeping in a separate room is idiotic and dangerous. We have adjusted to being parents even while asleep and wake up at a moment’s notice when a child is in need. And I get enough sleep even though I wake up at night sometimes. You will get the hang of it.
#12 We wait for 1 year old before we start giving solid foods. And only 1 food at a time. And do not begin with sweet foods.
#13 Try to breastfeed as long as possible so the children get a good start in life. The baby formulas are trash in comparison to breast milk.
#14 We don’t put anything on their skin that is not edible. IF it is not edible, don’t put it on their skin. Alcohol is toxic to the liver. Powder blocks pores. Lotions are petroleum products. The only thing we put on them is virgin coconut oil because VCO is edible.
#15 Sunlight. Every morning, we walk out on the streets and walk around bare topped.
I should expound on each one in future blogs.
