Frequently Asked Questions:
I’m a stay at home mom and my husband works 60 hours a week. At night when he comes home to play with our 11-month-old, she rejects him.
My father died recently and I've been dealing with it okay, but I'm not sure what to do concerning my 21-month-old daughter. When we go to my parents’ house she asks for Pop-Pop and we tell her he's not home. I can't keep doing this. I don't want her to just forget him, but how can you explain that someone has died to a baby?
