They also have a rescued seaturtle with a damaged shell because of a boating accident, so they made a backpack for it to help it swim.

[@henrikstomsjo5613]

Please avoid the word "kid", it literally means goatoffspring, satanists worship the goat, it's a satanic psyop referring to GOAT of Mendes or BAPHOMET. Humans have CHILDREN. It's all about (mockery of) Scripture. Matthew 25:31-46: "But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the GOATS. ----------- Wouldn' t it be more logic if followers of Jesus Christ called their children LAMBS!? Updated with additional info!: The first use in the English language for “kid” as an identifier of a child is - “It was considered informal English by the mid-19th century and is now in common use. The kids' referred to when the word first referred to children were sold by criminals to sea captains who took them to British colonies as labourers or slaves. They were also youngsters enlisted by British sailors or soldiers.”

We have the technology and social support networks to overcome some of the limitations imposed by the relatively underdeveloped state of human infants at birth that allow for greater care and support for infants, such as the use of clothing, shelter, and medical care. Hence why the relative immaturity of human infants at birth was not selected against in the evolutionary process within human history.
