I'm still having a hard time with the crying for bitty babies, but it's definitely a good read. There is a lot of repeated information in the 3 books though. FYI, I had to order mine. I dont know if BAM is going to have them. The'll probably have one of her books called "Raising Drug Free Kids".sweetviolethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808370847533285815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14115453.post-40113174038013378372007-05-28T06:16:00.000-05:002007-05-28T06:16:00.000-05:00Hey, I'm so glad to read this after our conversati...Hey, I'm so glad to read this after our conversation the other night! I'm heading to Books a Million today to check out Soulter and if I'm as impressed as you have been, I'm picking up a couple of copies for my sister too! This is a GREAT post, by the way..."Once we can stop parenting for other people, and parent for our children, I think we'll change the world!' I'm using that one....ChiroMumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16102851978006927225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14115453.post-69051415610944894562007-05-26T07:42:00.000-05:002007-05-26T07:42:00.000-05:00oh fiddlesticks! we wonder why men are more viole...oh fiddlesticks! we wonder why men are more violent, have more stress-induced disease, and die younger. we have such ridiculous expectations of boys in this culture. raising boys who cry when they need to will go a long way toward raising boys who are actually in touch with their emotions. ok, so let me recommend the book to anyone who is interested. the author is aletha soulter. the books are 1) the aware baby 2) tears and tantrums and 3) helping young children flourish. they're all quick reads.sweetviolethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808370847533285815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14115453.post-79624568609246694162007-05-25T22:24:00.000-05:002007-05-25T22:24:00.000-05:00I've always been extremely emotional, and hayden i...I've always been extremely emotional, and hayden is a very sensitive soul like her mum. It frustrates me MORE THAN ANYTHING (when certain people think)that it is ok for hayden to cry but if Elliott cries....well, you know, boys aren't SUPPOSED to cry!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14115453.post-71964256329495027622007-05-25T09:32:00.000-05:002007-05-25T09:32:00.000-05:00your beautiful shell is broken. you're funnee!your beautiful shell is broken. you're funnee!sweetviolethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808370847533285815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14115453.post-58197214055006940002007-05-25T09:13:00.000-05:002007-05-25T09:13:00.000-05:00It's just SO sad about the beautiful shell. :(It's just SO sad about the beautiful shell. :(Norma Shineynickelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12254341432601851531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14115453.post-50741486197219277602007-05-25T09:03:00.000-05:002007-05-25T09:03:00.000-05:00Once we can stop parenting for other people, and p...Once we can stop parenting for other people, and parent for our children, I think we'll change the world!sweetviolethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808370847533285815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14115453.post-82409138180721731422007-05-24T23:43:00.000-05:002007-05-24T23:43:00.000-05:00THIS IS AWESOME. Thank you for posting this. Reall...THIS IS AWESOME. Thank you for posting this. Really, thank you.<BR/><BR/>Usually when Hailey falls and cries or does whatever, and cries, I tell her to "shake it off". I comfort her but I try to make her, "us" look tough in front of people. I'm done. If my baby wants to cry it out, she's more than welcome to, right on MY shoulder. I don't give a damn what anyone says. We'll just walk away from them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
