In a Disney book we have, it definitely says 21st birthday. What I find more confusing is that Chip seems less than ten years old. So do the servants not age at all while under the spell?
My mom babysat (NBA player and coach) Scott Skiles when he was a kid, my aunts and uncles were extras in the movie Hoosiers, and Dave Letterman's junior high English teacher was my junior high English teacher (several decades later).
As a child, that would sound like a great idea. As a working parent, I would be pretty mad about a last minute cancellation like that. I live in Minnesota, where snow days are inevitable, but I don't feel like this is a good reason for me to have to either find last-minute child care or call off of work and leave my unit understaffed.
It rubbed me the wrong way that at the very end of that linked article the interviewee compared cord-clamping to (male and female) circumcision. Not remotely the same thing. The placenta is an organ that is made for one specific purpose--nutrient and gas exchange for a fetus. When that job is done, the placenta stops working. Removing what was designed as a disposable organ is not the same as removing living tissue.
My 3-year-old came to me at the park once crying because a baby *almost* touched her. She also got really upset the other night when I told her she couldn't take the broom and dustpan to bed with her.
One year in college my roommate and I bought coloring books and crayons the week before finals so that we could take coloring breaks during studying. It was very therapeutic.
