  • You seem to be open to all three options, and i wouldn’t choose for you. I can provide some thoughts though.

    What the kids wants could make the difference between 2 and 3 : do they want something strictly defined and stable (so more 3) or are they looking for something temporary and prone to change (so more 2) ? Their ability to provide the money can also make the decision for you, but since it’s not discuted i assume they can.

    Now, between 1 and the others, your wife opinion may make the decision for you, and talking with the kids to setup boundaries to prevent the situation from getting out of hands can be of some help in case you tend towards 2 or 3. Another idea is to search for other options, even if they don’t use them yet, but that they could use in the case it’s not possible at your house anymore, as others suggested.












  • I’m not backing the take itself, as other said it is widely extrapolation, but i don’t really understand how the fact that cats meowing only/mostly at their mom and humans would invalidate the theory that humans and cats are the same category in cats’ minds, since they use it for both cats and humans. It could indicate that they consider humans kinda like parents cats or just parents, maybe, but i don’t see how it indicates that they could consider humans as non cats.




  • Well, it may depends on the style you’re going for.

    If this is pixel art, which i found relatively easy when having no big artistic background, i can recommend those youtube channels : AdamCYounis, Brandon James Greer, and Pixel Pete. I also hugely recommend the series of mini-tutorial over here, it’s pixel art tutorial all in pixel art, and it’s amazing.

    If you’re looking for other styles, i don’t have ressources to learn. People already recommended Gimp and Inkscape (and Blender, you can do a bit of 2D in there as well, though it may not be the most comfortable way). I’d also add Krita, which is more meant for traditional drawing. It works way better with a graphics tablet though, but even a cheap one does the trick.
