Quick Tip: That Aint Chocolate
This is Diaper Delinquence Month. The donkey provides proven methods to avoid changing stinky diapers.
The Dipstick method
This method is a bit risky and a bit underhanded, but it will work.
NOTE: Your child has to be walking for this to be successful.
Once you identify a stinky diaper, locate your wife and ensure that she is busy. After you confirm this, grab the baby’s hand and stick it inside the diaper. Make sure to get a little poo on the fingers. You do not want to risk illness because of ingestion, so just a little is required. Snatch up the baby quickly and run to where your wife is. Without her seeing you, face the baby toward your wife and push the baby forward while making an unidentifiable noise. Your wife will see the baby walking toward her and hopefully notice the poo on the baby’s hand. She will immediately change the diaper, and you will have set the expectation that the baby will be digging inside diapers for months to come, ensuring quick reaction-time on the part of your wife.
NOTE: If your wife isn’t the observant type, you may need to wipe a little poo on the baby’s cheek or forehead for increased visibility.

Actually, this explains a lot about some of the things I’ve been encountering at home lately. I guess I can cancel that appointment with the child psychologist.

That is some of the most HORRIBLE advice I’ve ever read! Oh, but it’s funny! I that poo is mostly harmless unless ingested… but still, that’s ookey!Oh, and kids really will play with their own fecal matter. It happens. I don’t know if I’ll ever try this one… but I suppose I’ll just have to wait and see how desperate I am to NOT change the diaper.LOL, you’re a nut.

I can’t say that I have actually put the hand in the diaper, but I have turned the corner to see the hand in the diaper. I then push the baby in front of my wife and sneak away. That is a more legit way of doing things
