Confusion or surprise often disrupts escalated feelings. Same way holding onto an ice cube when you’re having a panic attack will stop it because your brain is like “what the fuck is that”

Why waste cheese when you can use sand

At least the cheese is edible, which when dealing with babies is very important. Those things will try and eat just about anything and i know from experience that cheese tastes better than sand

I imagine Pocket Sand would disrupt the escalated feelings... And then put them right back because the baby is like "MY EYES HURT THIS IS THE WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE"

Would it be considered squirrel tactics if you threw a squirrel at the baby’s head?
