I saw this and it brought to mind the whole [separate realities](https://www.gilespcroft.com/8-billion-separate-realities/) thing. It's from Tim Urban, of the brilliant [Wait But Why](https://waitbutwhy.com/?ref=gilespcroft.com) website.

(If you've never checked out the one about ‘[Your Life in Weeks](https://waitbutwhy.com/2014/05/life-weeks.html?ref=gilespcroft.com)’, it will give you quite the kick up the arse, but be warned 🚨 – his posts are addictive and you will lose a full *one* of those precious weeks reading them all!)

Anyway, he had a couple of kids and recently wrote a post called ‘[Tales from Toddlerhood](https://waitbutwhy.com/2025/10/toddler.html?ref=gilespcroft.com)’ that cracked me up because when it comes to parenting advice, then Yes – it's a frickin' minefield out there! 😂

Everybody's winging it, and everyone thinks they're right (which is what makes parenthood so much ‘fun’):

It brings to mind the little section of the book [Sanity, Insanity and Common Sense](https://gilespcroft.link/sanity-insanity/?ref=gilespcroft.com) (that should be considered your course textbook, as a Daily Reminders reader ☺️) where they're talking about disagreements in general:

> *“Incredible confusion can result when people attempt to solve problems by using his or her own separate frame of reference to decide who is right, who is wrong, who is telling the truth, and who is not.*

> *“The fact is that in separate realities, everyone is is right and everyone is telling the truth *as they see it*.”*

So important to be aware of!

p.s. I unpick this a little more in a previous Daily Reminder 👇🏻
