Baby succulent cant support itself

Baby first pic, parent second. I water the baby when it dries out, approx every 3 weeks, and the parent every month because it takes longer to dry out. I watered it yesterday. Baby gets morning direct sunlight and indirect for the rest of the day.. probably 12 hours. Parent is under grow light 12h.

For the baby, I was hoping to keep the roots already in the pot and not have to cut, let dry out, and plant again with the stem under the surface of the dirt so it can support itself. How to handle this? Also will take tips for the parent.
