[quote=Anonymous]I also had one difficult child in a share. Parents and grandparents responded to every little cry and whine, so she would wine and cry all day. Was a very clingy child. I just stopped responding to whining (I don't pick up either when they just whine). I sleep trained her and taught her that I won't jump when she whines. It took me a week or three and it got better. Now she's pretty adjusted and sleeps nicely and won't whine as much. She's still pretty clingy, but that's because they enable her at home. She knows now that whining won't help her here though. I think you really need to tough it out with her and teach her your rules. Also, maybe sit down with the other family, or both. Make it clear that the difficult child takes attention and care away from the non-difficult child. I wouldn't want my child not getting enough attention because of a difficult child in the share. I'm sure they'll wanna know about this. [/quote]
