I cannot believe that this got only 223 likes! Most of us did not experience proper parenting, and busked our way through our efforts to be parents as best we could. Thanks for this book.

God bless you for taking the side of children and people in general.

[@JanicePhillips]

I have a beautiful Tortie named Tricia and a Great Pyr/Akbash named Asha...whom we call Asher Dog sometimes in a funny voice. Can't wait to get this book to go with the rest! We love all your books, Doc.

BTW...I think your mic has a haint. 🤣

[@jeffbarney3584]

I get it and totally agree. The primary problem is that we do not recognize the profound intelligence seeking to develop with absolute trust in the formative wisdom the child knows it is emerging out of. The child then is communicating in an advanced language we deem primitive rather than primary as in first principle. We are as ignorant as we would be if we entered into an advanced civilization and demanded their method of communication dumb down to our own or we would drug and dominate them if not. Waldorf IS the remedy for this idiocy. Blanket statements to the contrary do violence to the hundreds of thousands of children including mine who are thriving with the understanding that children enter this life trailing clouds of glory.

[@jhouse8735]

I love Waldorf but sad to see our local school pushing vaccines especially during the pandemic.

[@eresu465]

I missed out on the link to the book! Can you put it again please T

[@talkinturkeywithtom]

here it is! amzn.to/3VWT1e7

[@justaman3333]

Noon to 1pm Eastern time on the 18th? Cheers

[@talkinturkeywithtom]

yes, thanks very much

[@hollyg738]

I will be ordering a couple of books! I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the Waldorf system. My daughter homeschools and basis’ her teaching on this.

[@snoweh1]

On Australian Amazon it says the book will be released April 1st. Is this correct?

[@talkinturkeywithtom]

we are contacting the publisher to confirm

[@snoweh1]

@@talkinturkeywithtom yes please, my sister is having a baby in April would be nice to get her a copy a bit earlier.

[@skynet4496]

Tom....Tell tricia to show you how to turn off the auto volume on your mic or reduce the volume cause your audio quality really sucks. It's distorted a bit, this is 2025 and you sound like tech from the early 00s. Compare to Andy etc...

[@talkinturkeywithtom]

we are working to fix it! Thank you

[@igamesaintsaintification1839]

It also sounded like you said that babies have wisdom. I just want to be clear to people, babies are not born with wisdom, they do not strategize how to get their parents attention. They are doing the only thing they can do, and discomfort of any form causes them to respond in the only way they are able: crying. It's how they communicate, has nothing to do with wisdom or strategic planning...

[@igamesaintsaintification1839]

I know you tried to avoid this issue but you stepped right in it. You said basically the baby "comes down into the body", twice actually. So now I'm trying to figure out, are you Hindu Tom or maybe Mormon, or just some mix of new age beliefs? Let's look at where the beliefs actually come from: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4a7hYKNh7J5l7c

[@jondhoe7023]

Where do children "come down from" Tom? Same place where viruses come from?
