Tinyest keeps ripping my glasses off and he holds them. He examines them, looks really thoughtful before ultimately shoving them in his mouth and biting the shit out of them. He can remove the first loop on the apple watch (fortunately not the second yet), and is very keen to try chew on my phone too. Most of my parenting is taking things off him before they get the shit bitten out of them.

My kid put chalk in her mouth when she was little. When I asked her why she did that she replied "because the green one didn't taste too good". Oh dear. "Sweetie we have food in the cupboard. You don't need to snack on chalk".

Chewing on things is how he thinks. You have a genius

Does he also bite the shit out of cardboard too, my friend’s kid did that at that age. Soaked the Christmas card I sent.
