Opinions: how old is too old to be in a crib? At what point would you consider it wrong to not transition them into a toddler bed?
My son will be 3 in about 2 months (11/1) and is nowhere near ready to be out of the crib. He also has not figured out how to climb out. His sister never liked the crib much and was an escape artist so she transitioned before he was born.

When they can fully sleep in a twin (or for those that use tot beds).
As soon as they start escaping out of it or they need more room. If not then I don’t see the harm in keeping them in a crib. So I think you’re fine.
We left our oldest in his until he was 4 because he never tried to climb out. By that time he was so big he touched on both ends.
As long as he's not Spiderman and climbing out I'd leave him in there for a while longer than go straight to a twin. SKIP a toddler bed ..it's not worth it.
The side comes off his crib hand turns into a toddler bed, otherwise I would do that :). Thanks! Yes, he’s not even trying to climb out yet and is really content.
@amysbabies oh yea just take the side off when he's ready. I did that too with my 2nd...thata what shes on now.I made the mistake of getting my 1st a toddler bed which lasted 2 minutes it seemed lol
I personally think there’s no reason to rush that. If he’s content I’d stick with it
I usually move them out around 3 but if he’s not ready and not climbing out I don’t see any reason to switch him
In my opinion up 3 years old is the limit.
My daugther was probably 2 1/2 when I switched her, she also liked her crib also didn’t climb out but I would find her lifting her leg over.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
If he’s not climbing out then leave him in the crib!! It’s sooo much better to not deal with them getting up all the time. My son started climbing out of his crib at 23 months so we had no choice to convert to a toddler bed. It was rough. He was up all night for the first week. We tried so many different things but he wasn’t truly ready until several months later. My daughter on the other hand stayed in the crib til about 2.5, I think, and she had no issues converting. She never got up.
