so,
sisybabypansy...
yes you are for most part living an an adult baby...not entirely 24/7 a baby...
babys dont read, get told about corona virus, watch much tv shows beyond young cartoons, dont even know what finances are, and etc...
if someone was to truly be a 24/7 true baby/infant/2yo...
youd be woken up for morning, fed, changed and put in play pen whilst your caretaker cleans up, then maybe play a bit, then down for a nap...etc
living as a true baby isnt fun, its very very boring and most likely very damaging to the psychological well being.
yes, if you live as an adult baby, then that is fine, there is adult stuff going on...you talk, you interact at a level way beyond a baby or even a 2yo
its not wise to just be and do baby things...
myself, i have staff 24/7, have another as my POA...etc...and could easily live as a baby if that was my intention.
Im currently fighting some medical issues...
but basically im told when to goto bed, and gotten up and out if bed (sleep in segufix every night and for naps too, i sleepwalkq and get hurt, so that eliminated the injuries).
i can/could easily just limit myself to baby things, but that would be boring very quick.
i have a pacifier in bed with me, and my stuffie puppy, also a sippy cup with water...but i still talk as an adult and interact with adults on a way past baby level.
being limited to just baby things would be damaging...and i think youd loose your mind after not too much time.
id miss talkingmto people, as a baby cant talk, id also miss getting the information as to what is going on, etc.
bottom line...
living exactly as a baby wouldnt be very good after just a bit.
now...
I dont have a problem with being told to goto bed and getting strapped into bed, or in my crib...that is good...and sleep very well that way every night...
i dont have an issue with my power of attorney giving right to another.
dont have issue with being told to eat or having them give me my medications, nor with wearing pjs around...dont care its my house and ill wear whatever...
id merly need a play pen, and a high chair to complete a full baby setup...have a convaid stroller, crib, bed with segufix, back zip pjs with lock, booties/mittens, stuffed animals, sippy cups, bottles, use baby wipes for cleanup, even get changed by others sometimes (if they notice im wet/dirty at night, will just undo the crotch strap and change my diaper and not even unstrap my feet/thighs/hands...even a couple times didnt even wake up), have the staff on site to do everything, room in the house for anything, and still wouldnt really be a real baby routine as im an adult and think like that.
oh, im ic in case not known, with bad back, bad foot, etc...so disabled.
the reason i have most the "baby" stuff is it works...
sippy cup in bed is perfect, and if my hands are strapped down they can easily give me a drink...works good.
same with crib...easy to keep injuries from sleepwalking down...
always had a stuffed animal in bed with me,
diapers, wellq im ic...
anyhow, whilst can be done, but really living as a baby wouldnt be fun for long.
