      Kids brains are developing and growing all the time. There is a more pronounced shift that is related to puberty, yes.

    Frank, like a lot of people, approaches this as a game to WIN. And to WIN, you've got to have mutually understood rules. With imaginative play, having fun IS winning. EDIT: They definitely could have added a fair bit, but remember - these episodes are only 7 minutes! That they cram SO MUCH into just 7 minutes is impressive!

    I love Frank! I believe he is the only confirmed autistic character in the show! He obviously likes sea creatures and knows a lot about them and thinks very logically so it’s very difficult at first to not just want to act how he knows octopi act, or play the game smartly in a way where he finds a “solution” to Chloe’s obstacles. But then!!! We see him try to understand what went wrong with the situation while also jump-starting a fun way to both be who he is and also make the game fun!

      Lucas here. I hadn't heard that Frank was Autistic. Where was that confirmed? That could inform a lot of what we see about his character.

    Oh I like Bluey Burger Shop. I don’t have any issue getting my child out of the bath. I actually WEAPONIZE Burger Shop to get my daughter into the tub. Me: You need a bath girly girl. Daughter: I’m busy playing. I don’t want to right now. Me: You can have bubbles. Daughter: I’m still playing with my Bluey game. Me: You can play Burger Shop in the bathtub. Daughter: *Makes a beeline for the bathroom* BURGER SHOP!!!!!

    S2E40 - OCTOPUS is also a good episode about parenting and how different houses teach and play with each kid, without spoiling the story, it also shows that there is no "one answer" when it comes to kids, some are very logic smart some are not, some are creative and others no so much, but so are adults/parents some are more educated in X or Y and other are more creative. S2E49 - BABYRACE this one always makes me cry, and funny enough is aim at parents, while been fun for kids to watch this one is heavy focus on first time parents or inexperienced parents ps. first time watching, no children but nephews that spend a lot of time with me

    The daughter was 6 years old when she was expected to pack her own lunch. Doing 15 minutes of research before you do the podcast is expected if you want someone to take you seriously. I only watched 10 minutes because you people are triggering.
