Yeah, I'm often amazed at how the closest thing to realistic anger I've ever seen Daniel's parents fall into is when Daniel used his dad's sock to make a puppet. And the closest thing to a real tantrum that Daniel himself has ever had was when he was...like, over-exhausted or something?

Same with Bluey. That dad is setting expectations way too high.

we're not fans of the CIO method and aren't just going to let them go on and on for a half hour or more.

That never worked for us either. The kid definitely escalates. Resets work way better.

Bandit models a lot of good parenting, but he's way too much of a pushover to be an actual role model. Also, I'm sure you'd look like a super parent if people only got to see your absolute best moments.

Oh, that's a good point. My nine best dad minutes every week probably compare significantly more favorably to Bandit's than a randomly-selected nine minutes.

Bandit has unlimited energy and a team of well-slept writers. He's a good role model as long as you realise he is as unrealistic as any other cartoon animal.
