Children's story idea & rant

I was doodling today and ended up with a concept for a children's book. It's a story about an anthropomorphic puppy named Wolfgang. He is a Beagle and Dalmatian mix with a circle patch on his right eye. His favorite outfit is his dark blue onesie. He looks like a mix between Snoopy, Bullseye the target dog, and Baby Finn the human from adventure time. he also has two sisters. One older in collage who visits from time to time and one younger baby sister. (based on my own two sisters)

He lives in an anthropomorphic word with a mix of other animals. He goes to Kindergarten and his best friend is a crow named Gunther, and their favorite thing to do together is making friends and playing at the park. It's most likely going to be a series about Wolfgang learning manners and lessons. I eventually plan on telling stories about him going to a formal ball, Being nice to his sister, meeting a kid with a birth mark, and having a Christmas where he gets only one of the things on his list because the underline story is his parents couldn't afford to get him things he wanted. My biggest inspiration for this series is tv shows like Oswald the octopus, Curious George, Calvin and Hobbes, and Peanuts comics. Like the calmness of Oswald, the lessons of Curious George, the humor of C&H, and the personalities/word of the Peanuts. Lalala fun fun fun :)

I was hoping to get help from a someone who studies childhood development or teaches beginner parenting classes to help me write the plots. like, I want this show to not just be about kids learning lessons but also teaches parents HOW to parent. like my time working in retail you can just tell some of the people don't know what to do with these kids. CRAZY!!! like no mama, your kid shouldn't be running around behind the counter of a McDonald's OR BE IN ONLINE CHAT ROOMS LIKE WHAT THE HELL???? THEY ARE 6 YEARS OLD!!!!

You know, writing all this makes me feel odd. Like, I'm a grown ass adult. I don't know what the hell kids do these days and I'm writing this mostly because I get pissed off seeing parents jam Cocomelon and those attention high-contrast, hypnotizing, color-bomb, algorithm based, YouTube kids videos. FUCK DUDE! It really grinds my gears, honestly. I don't know, man. I just feel really exited about this and I would share a picture of my doodles but I lowkey DON'T know how to attach an image to blogs 

If you know how, please tell me. Thank you.

i used to be a private tutor and also babysitting my neices. It's all about redirection. Kids just have energy, u just need to channel it. Another method I employ is out crazy the crazy. WHen my neice starts going wild I just up her. I start spining around and doing flips, i'll start singing and pick her up and spin her with me. I don't know if a licensed professional would agree but it worked with the students I teached and the family I watch over. cute story idea would love to c it.
