New here: how do I see posts from other lemmys? (lemmy.world)
 

I'm new here. I came over because I'm annoyed at reddit, but I don't quite understand how things are supposed to work.

As I understand it, Lemmy is like a reddit where a bunch of individuals run separate servers. My main interest is in /c/parenting.

I see that Lemmy.world's /c/parenting has some posts. Lemmy.one has some. Lemmy.can has some, etc.

None of these sites individually has enough posts/people to be useful (network effect), but together, they could make up a useful forum.

How do I get all of the other lemmys' /c/parenting posts to appear alongside the ones from Lemmy.world in the web interface?

Book & Mr Rogers episode recommendations for a shy 4 year old? in c/parenting@lemmy.world

That's a good idea for exposure to other kids, but he is already in preschool, which is a sort of playgroup. Too young for overnight camp.

You would think so, but preschools don't have too much time for non-crisis stuff like this.

Book & Mr Rogers episode recommendations for a shy 4 year old? (lemmy.world)
 

My 4 year old son is quite shy -- he is often afraid of kids at the playground and only engages in parallel play occasionally.

Can anyone recommend any picture books or Mr Rogers / Sesame Street episodes on interacting with other kids? I think that he needs examples of the skills required to talk with other kids, as well as examples of shy kids having fun with other kids.

As a side question, I don't understand how lemmy works. How do I see the c/parenting groups on all of the other lemmy servers?
