Food Worksheets

Hello!!! I made worksheets for trying new foods.

I made this cause I'm autistic and struggle to try new foods but this also could be helpful for people with

Also try foods again if you are able to. Our sense of taste is trainable and certain tastes like bitterness can fade over time. And (at least for me) a lot of my issues with texture come from fear which you can also train against by showing your brain it's safe to eat that thing.

Happy tasting!

Here is the full version, one that fits on printer paper and a printer friendly version!

Me remembering that time I tried to say something to a new friend but my brain didn't make words so I just babbled at him while holding cookies I wanted to give to him

I love seeing different regressors unique little talk. There are the more common replacing Ls and Rs with Ws but also inserting them in between a change from vowel to consonants. And the grammatical differences. Like some littles refer to themselves in the third person or use me instead of I or vice versa.

It's all so cute

DNI: nsfw, kink, age play

Shoutout to regressors who swear

Regressors who grew up hearing swearing so would regularly swear as a child

Regressors who think swears are just like any other word and are completely okay as long as you're not using them to hurt someone

Regressors who think it's funny to be so itty bitty and passionately say 'fuck' after they drop their paci on the floor

Regressors who use all the words available in their brain and aren't good at filtering out swear words

Regressors who throw tantrums and say hurtful words when their emotions are strong

Regressors who don't change their speech patterns when they're regressed

Teen regressors for whom swearing is a part of their regression

DNI: nsfw, kink, anti-agere

Reasons I prefer to have an imaginary caregiver

low social battery - I struggle to respond to texts regularly and it wouldn't be fair to them if I was only coming to them when I'm regressed or need something from them

I struggle to make new connections - the easiest way I could probably get a caregiver is by finding someone online but I struggle a lot to build connections and start trusting new people so it's easier to stick with having a caregiver that stays in my mind

They're perfect - I love writing stories about them doing exactly what I need them to do for me and I couldn't expect an irl caregiver to perfectly predict my needs like that

They're always there - I don't have to worry about them being busy when I need them or too tired to help me through my struggles

There are other ways to find community within age regression - I love texting on agere discords, texting in a group chat is a lot less stressful and it allows me to still human connections without as much pressure

I don't have to worry about harmful relationships forming - another problem with finding a caregiver online is you don't really know who that person is. As someone who is 19 I'm slightly safer from this but I still don't want a caregiver who is secretly significantly older than me or who secretly is nsfw. And I have BPD so I don't want to accidentally become codependent with someone or hurt them by doing things like venting too much or not giving them enough space.

this isn't to knock irl caregivers but just saying imaginary caregivers can be fulfilling too :3

Also always remember that irl caregivers are real people. If you have a real life caregiver they won't be 'perfect' like an imaginary caregiver could be (always being there, always knowing what you need, not needing anything in return) and that's okay because they have a ton of their own strengths (being a person you get to learn about and grow close to, being able to physically do things with you, they aren't bound by your imagination)

Cuddling your little and softly singing them lullabies as you doze off into sleep long before they do

Your little chronically under sleeps until you start saying you need to hold them through the night to sleep ("you have mr.teddy to sleep with but you're [title]'s mr.teddy so I need you to come cozy up in bed with me, okay?")

Falling asleep while watching your little's favourite movie/show and having them excitedly explain the entire plot of it after

Taking a nap on the couch and waking up to see your little has covered in you in makeup and stickers

Getting the coziest blankies and stuffies for you and your little to snuggle up under

Your little still into their games even when you're too tired to play ("We must rescue princess teddy without waking the evil dragon!")

Having the third sense for when your little's breaking a rule and waking right in time to stop them (and sometimes pretending you didn't notice cause they deserve a cookie or two)

Picking your little up after they had a long day and falling alseep on the couch cause neither of you had the energy to make it back to the bedroom

Imagine an agere summer camp. Regresssors coming from all over to spend a week to spend a week being kids together. And finally getting to meet online friends.

Sleeping together in cabins vaguely sorted by your little ages. Littler cabins in their onzies with their pacis and diapers. Not having to hide them away and getting to show off their collections of pacis. And the older regressors staying up far past the curfew playing video games on a gameboy one of them snuck in. And a cabin for the pet regressors with pet beds for those who use them.

Having campfires and craft circles and all the pets getting to run wild (and the teen regressors getting high behind the cabins but we keep that a secret from the tinies)

Having sticker charts to reward the tinies good behavior and having glass rules the middle and older regressors get to break and feel so rebellious about.

And so many smores

hello! this is kinda different from what I normally post but I write a lot of stories about imaginary caregivers so I'm trying to form a more solid imaginary caregiver I can use for comfort

feel free to insert your own imaginary or fictional caregiver here :3

Caregiver!jayvik making a hextech blanket that shrinks you down all smol after they wrap you up in it

Jayce is fine to carry you without it but you're too big for Viktor.

They'll know you're little cause you wordlessly go to the closet and bring the blanket out to them with big eyes like a puppy presenting a ball to their owner. Jayce will lay it down then pick you up and swing you back and forth saying "1...2...3..." Before (gently) throwing you down. Viktor will make a comment about him riling you up when you were about to have a nap. Jayce playfully fights against you to get you wrapped up all tight before shrinking you down and rocking you in his arms. Viktor sits on his stool holding you close to his heart as he softly sings lullabies in zaunite to you

New lil guy picrew just dropped

He's so cute! Thank you, @xyn0n0

Imagine stepping out of the shower and your caregiver is ready with one of these and wraps you up in it and you sit on their lap as they wash your face and put moisturizer on you and boop your nose and give you little kisses

I want a teacher caregiver so badly. I feel like all the love goes to parents and babysitter caregivers and they're great too. But like someone teaching me fun facts and giving me little worksheets to do and making sure I did my homework and telling me what I great job I'm doing even if my grades aren't reflecting all the work I'm putting in and helping me study more.

Affirmations for age regressors

I am a good kid

I am caring and loving

I am very cute and deserve to have my needs met

I am a good friend to all people, animals, and plants

Nobody is mad at me

Even if I do a bad thing that doesn't make me a bad kid, I just need to do better in the future

All of my friends and stuffed animals love me very much

caregiver with a black little that has internalized racism

always makes sure to put on shows with good black rep and buy books with black characters

does your hair all pretty in cornrows or box braids and adds colourful beads to it

always reassured you you're a good kid no matter what others assume about you

and that your skin and black features are very pretty

loves making your 'non-typical' agere meals that are a bunch of Jamaican foods (/foods from your ethnicity) your mom used to make for you

will do as much as possible to keep you away from the news when regressed

will NOT let anyone tell you that pastels don't look good on you

they're try to reassure you you don't need to worry about racism and stuff cause they'll protect you but sometimes they have to admit they can't protect you from everything and just let you cry in their arms

will teach you about strong black figures

helps you reconnect with parts of your culture your parents didn't share with you like reggae music

if you're African they'll wrap you in a bunch of African prints and celebrate Kwanzaa with you

Caregiver!Sevika coming home and you're still awake (by a little who may or may not be up way past their bed time)

You're waiting at the door for her when she comes back from work

"my little munchkin, what did we say before I left?"

" ... That you left a meal for me in da fridge ... Um dat I could has one ice cweam tweat..."

"and..."

"... n bed at 10"

She scoops you up into her arm and carries you up to bed

You're trying to go to sleep cause you know Sevika's all tired from her work day but you just can't and keep squirming around in her arms

She gives you some toy cars and lets you play with them for 20 minutes, but it's off to sleep right after that!

you run them up and down her prosthetic arm as she doses off having the cars race each other and jump over the shimmer cavern

After your 20 minutes are up she turns off the lights and locks her in bed under her strong arms

She softly sings you the lullabies her mother used to sign for her

you join her

"dear friend across the river..."

When an agere discord doesn't allow you to use the word "diaper" :/

It's their space they created and they get to make the rules but I just wish there were more spaces for padded regressors

rewatching kids shows and "Renaldo do you think if I knew why girls did anything I'd spend this much time in a lab, the answer is 'yes, I would', I love science!"

I think it's funny how the term nsfw changed from actually being about what you can't do at work to just a kinda general category of s*xual and v*olent things

Cause like agere is always about being sfw but it's not actually something you could do at work lol

I wish I had a caregiver that made sure I felt included in groups. That held me and rubbed my hand when I'm to tired to talk to remind me that they're still thinking of me and appreciating that I'm there.

Who makes a point to turn to me and respond if I try to say something but no one else listens. Who will ask me direct questions if I want to talk but I'm struggling to come up with something to say.

A caregiver that'll loudly say bye to me when I'm leaving so everyone notices and waves bye too

A caregiver that'll stand up for my needs when everyone else is ignoring them.

A caregiver that'll talk about me even when I'm not there, about how much they appreciate me and enjoy being around me

Caregiver healing from having a toxic little with their new little (little talk has plain text in brackets after it)

You get to your little's place after a long day at work. After a bit of playing with them they tell you, "you seem tiwed" (you seem tired)

"sorry, my precious"

"no, itz ok. but r u gud?" (no, it's okay. But are you good?)

"I'm just a little stressed about my work, that's all"

"ooh, jobs are vewy hard. I awways getz eepy ater work" (oh, jobs are very hard. I always get sleepy after work)

"well, good thing you have me here to look after you"

"but whatz abou u???" (but what about you)

"I'm okay"

"nu, bubba needa west wight now" (no, bubba (caregiver) needs to rest right now), your little one takes your hand and leads you over to their bed before weakly pushing you onto it.

"come on munchkin, I'm here to take care of you, not to nap"

"bu-but I needz u ta be wested s-so we can both be appy n pway" (but I need you to be rested so we can both be happy and play)

"okay, if you insist"

"yayyy, okie, nuw stay hewe. I needa get u stuff" (yay, okay, now stay here. I need to get you stuff)

"be safe!!!" you shout out as they rush off to the kitchen.

You wait in bed thinking over what your little tot could be doing. You listen carefully to make sure there are no concerning noises and while there are a couple thunks they're all followed by a quick "I okey" (I'm okay). You start to feel more guilty about leaving your little alone especially when they're this small and running around the house to do whatever they want. You think about how you're last little would have come back crying about how you didn't follow them even though they told you not to.

As your fears start to creep, thinking of your little muffin coming back upset or hurt they appear in the doorway happy as ever

" 'ook wa I made fur u" (look what I made for you?)

They present you with their favourite plate with a messy peanut butter and jelly sandwich in one section, chips in another and a mix of blueberries and raspberries in the last.

"I didznt cut da sammich cause i knuw u dun wanme usin sharp stuff. Annnn! N i added fwuits cause you awways say dere 'mpowtant" "I didn't cut up the sandwich because I know you don't want me using sharp objects. And! I added fruits because you always say they are important)

"aww, you're such a good kid" you say was you rub their hair.

"canz I cuddle wid u?" (can I cuddle with you?)

"of course!"

You lay there, hugging them and snacking on the food they made for you for a while.

"Hey button, I'm really sorry I couldn't be that good of a caregiver today"

"wha??? you were da best today!" (What? You were the best today) they cuddle into your arm, "I don eed you tu awways be stwong for me. ur da best cause I wuv u not cause of da stuff u do" (I don't need you to always be strong for me. You're the best because I love you, not because of the stuff you do for me)

Your caregiver supporting of you after people were harassing/bullying you online:

⭐ After it first happens they immediately delete whatever app you're being harassed on off your phone

⭐If you're done with that app they'll delete your account

⭐If you want to keep your account they'll make sure to take off any personal information or pictures of you you put up on that account so you can feel safe knowing no one can track you down and hurt you more

⭐They come up with a bunch of other activities for you to do instead of using that app

⭐They'd show you a bunch of episodes about bullying from kids shows to make you feel less alone

⭐They'd reassure you that your feelings are valid and that online bullying is real bullying

⭐They make sure to tell you it wasn't your fault and that you didn't deserve that

⭐"but-but what if I was being a bad kid", "bubba, nothing you could do online would ever justify people threatening to hurt you"

⭐Would promise you that if anyone ever tried to follow through on a threat that they'd protect you

⭐They'd talk to you about what it would mean for you to get justice against the people harassing you

⭐If it would be a good idea to take evidence of people who sent you death threats and try to have their account banned or try to track down their school/job and show them the evidence

⭐Together you decided that it would be best for your mental health if you just deleted any messages and blocked them

⭐After a while if you wanted to go back to using that app they'd go through the notifications and block anyone who was harassing you and show you all the messages people sent saying they were sorry you were being treated that way

⭐You'd have your head in their lap, holding onto your favourite stuffie for comfort and they'd be scrolling on your phone

⭐"Are there a lot of them?", "That doesn't matter Bubba. You're safe and you have me here to protect you", "...okay"

⭐Every so often they'd stop and show you a kind message from someone and each time you'd feel just a little bit safer

⭐They'd respond to those messages for you

⭐If you weren't out as a regressor on that account they'd translate your little-talk about how you had big feelings but their messages were like kisses on your boo-boos to more adult sounding thank-yous

Some texts you asking to be your cg: :3333333

Their account is nsfw: :(((((

When your therapist asks you what you do for your mental health but you're a closeted regressor: oh you know I like to do colouring books (with crayons), talk to my friends (baby talk to them), cuddle (with stuffed animals), or I'll take a bath (with plenty of rubber duckies and bath toys)

when you can't regress so you hang out with you friends until they make you feel so excluded that you involuntarily regress

I feel like there's not enough love for age regressors that love yucky things

tw: a lot of yucky stuff (bathroom bodily functions, v*mit, blood etc)

like being so proud of the big dump you made

and burping sooo loud cause it's so fun to be so gross >:3

I just half burped half coughed up this liquid and I was curious about what it was so i spit it into a cup and I smelt sooooo icky I thought I was puke. that was sooooo cool!!!!!

and a few weeks ago I had a nose bleed and I collected it all in a cup and then I added hydrogen peroxide and it went all foamy and was sooooo cool

And also periods. One time when I was a tween I got so mad at my sister I tied together a bunch of tampons and threw them into her room

that was mean and I feel bad about it now

but yucky things are sooo cool our bodily functions are sooo cool and all the little things they give us from those functions are so fun

Hiii! I just made a community for age regressors to vent in :D

it's @@agere-venting, I had a lot of fun making it, I made the banner and pfp myself :D. I even added a list of hotlines if you need one :3

sooo plz join and share it maybe, that would make me really happy. thank youuuu!!!!

Here's my din din for today! With a little treat!

✨✨✨ A caregiver taking care of me when my vascular malformation has a flare up ✨✨✨

🫰I wake up and I'm trying to do my best to hide it but they can see that my hand is stuck in a ball and I'm holding it to my chest

🫰" what's wrong little one, is your hand hurting?"

🫰I start sobbing "uhh! It feewls so baddd, it's all one fire and like it's gonna burst outta my hand"

🫰"oh no, let me help you with that" they take my hand and guide me over to the bathroom sink then turn on the cool water and holds my hand under it

🫰I lean into them "ohhh, that feewls soo good"

🫰"how long has this been going on, sweetie?"

🫰I bury my head in their shoulder, "... a couple days"

🫰"why didn't you tell me before? You know I would have helped you?"

🫰"Cause I need to be a big strong boy"

🫰"you can be a big strong boy and also come to me for help"

🫰 they take me over to my bed and put me under a bunch of covers, wrap my hand in a cold, wet towel, and put one of my stuffies under it so it's elevated

🫰 "You should rest for now, here's an Advil. What do you want to watch?"

🫰"ooo, can we watch The Wild Robot?"

🫰"of course little one!"

🫰 the next day they get a sling for my arm so it's easier to keep to keep my hand elevated and reassures me that it's okay for me to wear even if I'm not 'injured' because it's helping me be in less pain

If you're curious about what a vascular malformation is: a bunch of the veins on my arm and on my back are like bigger than they're supposed to be or like tangled and stuff so sometimes blood clots form (they're harmless but painful) or just sometimes some veins expand and that causes a lot of pain in my hand. I'm pretty sure it's best if I keep my whole body cool but I love being cozy so I never do that >:)

Things that should have made me realise I'm an age regressor sooner

But they get less socially acceptable as they go on (plz DNI if you find padded regression and other things like it weird)

hoards of stuffed animals

"I hate being an adult cause when I'm in the grocery store all scared and alone I can't just start crying out for my mom because instead of someone assuming I'm lost, they'll just look at me weird"

always feeling like I was younger than all my peers even if they were actually slightly younger than me

like half the foods I eat I eat b/c they make me feel like a kid. Like my big treat for myself after a stressful week was a pack of paw patrol yogurt drinks

Getting super into kids media, like the only movie that interests me is The Wild Robot

feeling comforted by how period pads felt like diapers

Having trouble tinkling myself up until 10th grade

Still sleeping in my parents bed some nights in 7th grade

Still as an adult picking my nose (I know it's unsanitary and I'm trying to stop)

I got a thing of 96 crayons and organized them all so they're pretty :3
