[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Going forward, I just want to be certain this is normal or something she will grow out of and not a serious issue and I don't know where to go to find out. [/quote] Why don't you give it some time--work on your parenting, and then establish a "new normal" in your family. With time, and your increased sensitivity toward your daughter, you'll be able to see if the tears are getting in the way of her leading a happy life. Change yourself first, though. Don't look for changes in her for at least 6 months to a year. (*And don't look for her to change from a cryer to a non-cryer. See if you are helping her to develop the self-confidence to ask for what she needs or wants, whether or not she has tears in her eyes.)[/quote]
