Abandoned? Definitely not. It’s just not as “acceptable” these days. (Grew up with family member OB/GYN from the 1950s and was definitely the type to do that shit)

Doctors used to perform “pelvic exams” on unconscious women all the time without their knowledge or consent. Totally legit practice back in the day.
A modest proposal for an hors d’oeuvres.

I agree wholeheartedly.
The only instinct a child has to get attention is to be disruptive. Eventually they learn patience, better verbiage, and how to time their interactions with others. Time isn’t really a concept yet and things are almost an “on/off” switch.
Hunger doesn’t exist during playtime until Hunger is activated, in which case, Hunger is all that exists. Hunger can only be eliminated with help as the cookies remain furiously out of reach. HELP!
“Attention-seeking behavior” is “hey I need help with something” in their first language. It’s up to the adults to figure out what’s going on. Finding out why they are being disruptive helps, a lot. If they feel they’re being ignored, work out spending time with them as reassurance… when convenient. If they’re hungry, take a moment to procure a proper snack, and then they’ll be satisfied. They might not even know what they need - do any of us really - and that’s where listening can be helpful.
Again, time not being easily explained such an on/off age.
I am not a child therapist. I’ve just worked with too many “difficult” kids.

Knew a guy who insisted he wasn’t addicted, but he can’t go a day without attending an AA meeting. 40 years, non stop. Even when in other countries for work, he finds them. Left his own daughters wedding dinner to make it to one.
He runs his own chapter where he lives. He’s had people follow the steps, sure, but some don’t. No matter how successful the latter are, he tears them apart for “not doing it right” and has turned his back on them for not following how he did it.

I was taking that to be “zitter” like it’s infected and probably should be seen by a professional otherwise it’s going to leave a nasty mark.

I see that you know your judo well.
“Giraffe” etymologistically speaking has roots in the Middle East, giving it a “je” sound: jarraf, zarafa, et al
“ultimately from Persian زُرنَاپَا (zurnāpā), a compound of زُرنَا (zurnā, “flute, zurna”) and پَا (pā, “leg”)”.
So if it’s “Giff” like “giraffe” - /dʒɪf/ - soft g like “George”. If it’s named after someone with a name like Kathy Lee Gifford, then hard G.
Twits for short. Just overall, forever.

If it’s legal to be in a swimming suit, it’s legal to be in underwear because you can argue it’s your swim suit.
Walk barefoot, toughen up your feet. I prefer having thumbs and hands to paws.
