Mom Says Baby Didn't Sleep Well Last Night

[mommiesherie]

I actually had a 2 year old boy who's parent put him in the swing so long that he rocked himself to sleep smacking his head on the side of the crib.( at my house)
They said they only stopped using the swing because he got too heavy and bent the bars on it. He only slept in the swing at home. He was well over one years old.

Wow that's not healthy. How did that child get any real rest? Wow

he was one of the most difficult children we ever had.
He bit my daughter, threw a chair against my sliding glass door, and screamed at the top of his lungs every day, termed him early on.
Parents thought it was cute to smack dad in the face... was trying to make him "tough" so we wouldn't get picked on in school.:confused::confused:

I have a friend who did that and then they switched to rocking him to sleep in a rocking chair when he broke the swing. By the time he was 4 it took a couple of hours out of her night every night. Now that I think about it she had constant babysitter problems and he had 4 sitters that I can remember before he started school. I stopped caring for him and his sister two years ago as SA kids because they didn't fit in my program anymore. He wanted to stay in the basement all summer and play video games instead of go to the beach and she (7 yrs) brought "27 Dresses" everyday to watch.

I can see some "Mommy issues" there...::::::
