Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

In the Netherlands, "kraamverzorgenden" come by the house of new parents every day for ~the first week to show you the ropes, and just in general to help with chores and/or entertaining brothers and/or sisters.
That sounds like something that would go to the house of new parents and steel their kid
What does "kraamverzorgenden" mean? In my country that's always a woman and is called "grandma" but in a diminutive or loving style or a pet name for grandma. Basically "gammy" or something to that effect.
It roughly means "someone who takes care [of the new family] in a newborn situation".
Same in Slovenia. I assume it's the same in all of EU.
