I’m curious about the increase in daycare for babies as also contributing to diaper use. The entire manipulation of young parents is just evil. Mom has to work to pay for meals out, a new car, formula and….those high dollar diapers. :(

'I had to downgrade my life' - US workers in debt to buy groceries
"I’m a Democrat," says Ms Ellis, who lives in the Philadelphia suburb of Norristown. "I love voting for them. But Republicans are speaking volumes right now and Democrats are whispering."
“I want somebody to help me, help the American people," she adds. “Joe Biden, where are you?”
Learn what 2nd hand shops are. Downsize your wants. I'd love to get my nails done once a month, over $125, it stopped. My biggest need is new Severe hearing loss Professional Hearing Aids. That will have to wait. New lenses for my glasses need to come first. Not cheap either. Zeiss is my go-to brand. Best on the market.
Dag, Unbekomming, you leave no stone unturned. Diapers?? OK, here we go. While standing in Tiananmen Square on a chilly morning, getting ready to enter The Forbidden City, wondering where all these Chinese people came from, a man standing in front of me had a very small child sitting atop his shoulders, when I noticed a hole in the child's snowsuit, coolie cheeks staring me in the face. The child didn't walk yet so the mother was standing nearby with a stroller. Baby & toddler clothes in China are created with holes at the bottom. When I came home I researched.
Come to find out the average age of Chinese children already potty trained was 9 months. Say what? And China is a backward country? No, I don't think so. I've done a bit of traveling and believe me, nothing could have prepared me for the magnificence of Shanghai. Another story.
I bought 4 dozen cloth diapers when my boys were born, no way could I afford paper ones, but my sitters insisted, so one package lasted quite a while. At home, always cloth. Cloth diapers are cold and noticeably uncomfortable, paper ones caused rashes because they are warm and hold a lot more. Both were trained by 1 year. My granddaughter is 3, just graduated from diapers to pullups, oh joy. I am forever astounded at the gadgets bought, money wasted, energy spent and time invested in cluttering up a house with stupid stuff that is more easily and cheaply done the old fashioned way. On that subject I could write a book. Lazy is expensive.
My 3 were raised with cloth, there were no disposable until the last one. I saw no reason to change. After three babies became dust and garage rags. Till worn out.
I threw the bottle away at 1 year and that is the Key starter. Started potty training, all boys. On one of those floor models. Gerber training pants turned out to be the best. Those too were passed down. Each one had a different time of learning. As a new mom, I loved having my mom's advice on #1. From there I was an old pro.
Money was tight for a low-rank Military family, there were weeks when diapers were washed in the bathtub and hung out to dry. We did without a lot. BAQ stunk. Still does.
Throwing the bottle away is something I never did. I know, I know, folks berated me for that. But I saw the need. It was a comfort thing for them. My boys hated sitters, hated preschool, so I took them out. They drank just fine from a cup at an early age and entered 1st grade, no kindergarten. They did not want to be separated from us or each other.
I lined up 6 bottles at the bottom of the fridge for them till they were between 3 and 4. They'd run into the house for a sit down, rest or nap, open the fridge, grabbed a cold one and headed for the couch. Old habits die hard huh, they do the same thing today, only now their choice of beverage has changed.
Each child is different, as are cultures, if it works that is what counts. My youngest was the hungriest, smallest, and hated school till the day he turned 18 he quit, just a few months from graduation. Won't get a GED. Prefers to learn from watching, and then doing. Doesn't seem to bother him to make less money. As he now has 2 daughters, he gets the freebies. Pisses me off. The newest granddaughter is 2 months old, I saw her once in the NICU. I wear severe hearing loss hearing aids, and the background noise hurts. There are 8 in the to small house. I gave up caring. My sanity and hearing are more important. I've provided enough. Wiffie runs the show.
Last event I shared wth my 3 adult children, they took me out for sushi as a bon voyage. I was heading for the Kibera slums in Nairobi Kenya, to volunteer wth Street Orphaned kids. All 3 "held" their cell phones. We didn't "hold" conversations. I ordered a large sake drank it down! Woodstock generation Granny Chicago
We all did and do what's best in our personal life's for our children. Management of a household from Father Knows Best, The Brady Bunch, to Sex in the City it ain't been an evening cocktail for the "berated" I salute you CM.
Me too 3 children from 1981-1998 all cloth diapers, no plastic bottles. No McDonald's happy meals. No Disney wardrobe movie themes. Woodstock generation Granny
Extreme trauma surrounding the issue of urination caused me to grow into a child that was TERRIFIED of the sensation of needing to pee, let alone going to the bathroom to do it, leading to me holding it for so long that it would find it's way out (all of it) at VERY inopportune and embarrassing moments all the way to the age of 12. And of course, those moments only made everything worse;-)
"Whisper words of wisdom, let it be." (or let it pee;-) I LOVE to see that people are getting a better understanding of "pottie training" and spreading the word!
I never worked when my children were in diapers. I used cloth ones nearly exclusively, and found that if we ever used disposables (only in traveling situations) that my girls would end up with rashes that took a week or so to heal afterward. As a one income family, we had very little disposable income after the bills were paid so it was an easy decision. I have fond memories of taking clean diapers off the clothesline, hung from lines tied to trees in the yard of our rented farmhouse.
Has there been any one more influential in human civilization than Edward Bernays? He has exploited human psychology from every angle to separate people from their money. The same techniques are used by other institutions for other reasons. The CIA teaches these strategies to their agents, how to see them in others and how to use them. Here is the thing, kids should be taught early how this whole operation works, so that they don't follow the pied piper for the rest of their lives, regardless of whether the issue is diapers, vaccines or eugenics.

Procter and Gamble is a company that is void of human interest!!! They treat pregnant employees poorly with very poor management especially in the albany ga plant🤮
What a fascinating article. I suspect that if someone tried to market the China solution to potty training - the Procter and Gamble medical cartel would swoop in and lawfare them out for f business. How many more illnesses, like extended diaper rash, are created to "drive the economy?"
In Bali, babies are held by a family member (incorporating all the extended family) until 6 months old. Then a special ceremony is conducted for when the baby's feet first touch the ground. The babies are never in diaper.
I remember chatting with a Balinese man holding a baby. He just held her out at arms length for her to pee and then back in to his body after. So adults can learn the cues from the baby.
I understand for many years adult diapers have out sold infant diapers in Japan. Also, looks like the leader of the not so free world wears them as well.

Great story, thank you!
I was in China the in the mid 80s and saw lots of babies with bare bums - but never thought about it this way.
Not everyone is bamboozled, thank God. Some of us are strong and prone to a suspicious nature and doing research. No baaaaa here!

Yes, GR8 article. We must be skeptical of everything.
Perhaps Joe should switch to cloth? https://timothywiney.substack.com/p/sleep-walking-in-diapers

THANK YOU!!
Now if you can rid yourselves of the Royals ties and get your politicians not to pee on ya and tell you it's raining, you might become a free people.

Oh my, everything you described was me. Never had a dryer, still hang clothes outside.
