[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I would focus on getting the husband up to speed. [/b]I know it will take work and practice but it’s good for everyone - your child will know that more than just mom can keep him safe, you will get some breaks, and husband can increase his confidence working with son. [/quote] This. Dad has to be an equal player in this. OP, there were periods when my husband (very involved and responsible) and I just had to agree that we could take DD out for certain activities. The first episode was curtailing going out to eat because DD arched her back, worked her way out of the high chair, wanted to run around the restaurant, etc. She didn't even make much noise but the noise, lights, sounds, smells were just too much. So we didn't try dinner out for a year or so. Then I learned I couldn't take DD to the theater, ballet or most movies because it was an assault on her senses and she usually wanted to leave pretty soon into the activity. I guess I'm just trying to say that while you are working on her DH's attitude, that you curtail any similar outdoor events.[/quote]
