I need help with transfering my daughter off the bottle and onto the sippy cup. She doesn't care for milk and she will only drink from a cup if the spill-proof thingy is off and the cup is dumping into her mouth. Then she gets ticked and throws it away from her. My son drank from a straw very early on so he used the straw cup until he got older ( Read more... )

I was just surfing around some parenting communities and I found trainupachild. It is a members only group because they were slammed with abuse too. I noticed on their bio page that cite Dobson's website so there are probably some spankers in there that got attacked like we did. Anyway, the reason I'm mentioning this is because there was a short post about ( Read more... )

My daughter is almost a year old and she still cries/screams for 5-10 minutes at bed and naptime. As silly as it is I'm comparing her to my friend's babywise babies that are just a little older than Amy who go down without a peep.
