      you’ve never watched somebody set up for this shot? it’s not a balancing act, it’s a toss with the photo snapped at the apex. so yes, you did learn something today

        No it kinda is a balancing act. At least with my two sons, and I’ve done it with both many times. Around 6 months they start being able to balance if you hold them by their buts. They wobble back and forth and find stability. This is just the advanced version of that where you press them up above your head while they balance. It’s easy and they are never really unsafe, if they wobble you just drop your hand and bring your other hand up and catch their bum with two hands. It’s awesome.

        What the fuck are you talking about. That’s not remotely true. You just put the baby in your hand and lift it. It’s not that uncommon a “stunt”.

              when you have children, nature just turns off the part of your brain that says not to juggle your children over hard surfaces?
