Well, that was a close poll! Here are the results 😊
1. A man is eager to help his mother regress his little sister to a toddler, but is less excited about his own return to infancy - Rick (out of several male AR tales with high votes - this was the most popular)
2. Steve's psycho...

He hasn’t spoken since he regained consciousness. Not a word, not a peep. It’s probably the shock. They didn’t take away his tongue, after all. His vocal cords are still intact. Yes, it must be the shock.

John doubles his allowance by watching his little brother Kevin on Friday nights.
Date night, his parents call it, making John squeamish. Nothing worse than old people acting like they’re not old. John himself is 14, old enough to want a date night of his own. Next year he will be a freshman in high school, a...

Ashley makes promises – I’m going to get you out of here, it’s going to be okay – and then takes Robert back to the baby room and leaves him with another daycare worker. And then Robert suffers through a morning of activities – a sensory table with its sand, birdseed, popcorn k...

He could probably make a good effort at crawling, but he hasn’t tried that. He has no interest in crawling, just as he has no interest in playing Peek-a-boo. He wants his old life back, with his o...

After parents leave their precious offspring at Mr. Fluffles, there’s a relatively quiet period in the baby room when Robert feels at his mental best. Free from his girlfriend’s attentions, Robert can gather his thoughts. ...

It’s Robert’s fifth day when he says something.

Cassie wakes up, certain that she has slept in. A mix of anxiety, grief, and shame makes her mouth feel as dry as the desert. She has missed the ride to Blountville, Tennessee. She has missed her flight to Atlanta. And she is absolutely not going to Paris.
