[quote=Anonymous]I completely agree with the above poster. I was in a nanny share for 4 years, one high-needs baby and the other very mellow. The high-needs child was I believe taught to be that way. The mom would hear him whimper and she would run in and get him. She would get upset if I tended to the other child because hers wasn't " getting any attention". Eventually the other family caught on and had word with the mom. She was paying considerably less but was expecting way more. At now 5 years old, she still spoon feeds, co-sleeps, and tends to his every whimper. He would scream and then be silent the moment someone scooped him up. The mom was also high needs, texting 30 times in a 7 hour day. There isnt anything wrong with teaching a child to self-soothe and be self-sufficient. [/quote]
