[quote=Anonymous]We did extended nursing. While it might not have looked like it to an outsider, by 2.5 there were definitely firm limits. By 2.5, Dd could easily handle the days I was away. We also actively worked to transition Dd from the with mom or dad all the time stage to the preschool stage. We set limits on nursing times and signed her up for activities where parents were observers, not participants. Now that I have an almost 9yo, I can say that early attachment worked at raising a kid who knows she has a safe home base, but loves venturing out into the world with nary a glance back. If you didn’t have a good gut feeling about the family, then pass. However, if it occurs again and your spidey senses don’t tingle, I wouldn’t write off the family just for extended nursing. [/quote]
