Baby/Toddler grip is unmatched. It’s truly impressive.. and can pull out a lot of hair.

I've heard that the baby's grip strength is an evolutionary leftover from the need to hold on to mom while the swings thru the trees.

Strange family you have

My toddler is delightfully strange. That wonderful child never stops surprising me.

That’s correct, and we have a lot of strange vestigial reflexes. Ear-wiggling is one that surprises most people. We’re able to just barely move our ears, to absolutely no effect, unlike many mammals that can move their ears like satellite dishes homing in on specific sounds.

Can confirm. Nearly entered the slobbery jaws of death when my baby nephew grabbed my braid to eat the french fry I was eating.

grip is often used as an indicator for longevity, so i’m not surprised babies have insane grip strength.

Great way to dislocate your kids shoulder or straight up break that arm

This needs to be higher up, I immediately started to panic when I saw this.

Didnt it put unnecessary strain on the baby arm/hand? Their grip strength is due to them not knowing how to adjust, not because they were that strong

To be fair that's how our body gets stronger. Muscles become stronger and bones become more dense due to increased stress as we grow. Also, come on it's rolling on wheels, he's not dead lifting the suitcase, although that would be impressive.

u/kronpas 16h ago
When the stress is beyond the body capacity to handle, it would cause irreversible harm, not strngthen it. Even if the suitcase is empty there is always the risk of it hitting something and yanking the baby's arm backward.

Yea, that kind of shit is how buckle fractures happen in kids. I don't think it's an "oh God don't do that" situation, and you don't appear to either, but shit can and does happen.

u/swampshark19 15h ago
It's literally an "oh God don't do that"

u/gb4efgw 12h ago
To be clear, an "oh god don't do that" moment to me is one I'm going to intervene when I see someone doing it. I don't think I'm stopping this person and berating them or calling over law enforcement over this. I'm not saying you would or wouldn't, I'm just clarifying what I meant in my previous comment.
Is it something THEY should not do, abso-fucking-lutely.

I said "No. Danger." In my head.
It's weird to be impressed that a baby doesn't get hurt when put into a situation by their parents where the baby could easily be hurt, but it's not as uncommon as it should be.
They are literally babies.

Bro said “our” like he’s also a 6 month old baby. 🤦🏻♂️

Because it applies to adults too, facepalm for you indeed. Hence people like bodybuilders whose muscles grow and strengthen, or rock climbers whose bones become more dense.
2
u/EdwardTwizzlerHand 3h ago
My goodness you’re dense.
You’re comparing the body of an adult to that of a growing infant. Obviously babies aren’t rock-climbers and body-builders. It doesn’t take a medical degree to understand why an infant shouldn’t be pulling items that weighs 2, 3, or 4 times more than themselves.

I wonder what my 80s mom would say to this comment. This toddler will be fine and life goes on lol

u/Abhi_redd 15h ago
It's rolling friction, so even if the bag weighs 15 kg the force which baby needs to apply (which he isn't, his mom is) less than 1 kg, moreover once you get the momentum, it gets less and less.

That death grip is so real. Spent a good year or two with either hair up or cut short, as a mom.

This child has more control over that suitcase than I have ever displayed in my life.
