What can happen if your kid will walk around the house wearing only a diaper a drinking from a baby bottle.?

Hopefully, the home is warm so the toddler won't catch a cold. If any toys etc. are scattered around on the floor, he may trip, fall down and suffer some pain. So try to baby-proof the home as much as possible, and lock up cleaning fluids etc. usually accumulated under the kitchen sink.

Then relax. Don't worry. Be thankful that your happy child is getting some healthy exercise.

Answer:

Well how old is the kid? If he/she is older than 4 it could result to being a DL (diaper lover) and as they grow older could turn into an AB (adult baby)

How can I dislodge a very large object from behind my bedroom door. I'm locked out of the room?

To clarify: I had an old closet door, with a large mirror on it, propped up behind my bedroom door. My dogs were playing in the bedroom and must have shifted the mirror behind the door because when I closed my bedroom door behind me, I heard the mirror slide down and then fall... The door has a lever-type handle, with the lever turned vertically up instead of being horizontal (to keep the dogs from opening the door). The mirror seems to have fallen on top of this, and being that it's quite heavy, I can't move the handle at all. Also, about as far away from the door as the mirror is wide, there is a very large cabinet. Anyone have any idea how I can fix this, short of trying to climb through the second story window??
