1. I think that the answer 3 is the best, because if the mother demands all the attention that the baby wants, that your life revolve around her. If the mother continue doing yhat, yhe things would be worst through the time.
2.
1.Our four-year-old refuses to sleep in her own bed. In fact, she won't sleep anywhere unless she sleeps with us. We have tried everything and we are desperate.

Sleep disorders in children are indeed fairly common, and in fact, many sleep disorders even tend to present themselves predominantly in childhood, sometimes before the patient grows out of it later in life. I think that if the child cant sleep yoy have to sleep with him in his bed but never in yours, because the child will prefer her or his parents bed.

2.My seven-year-old son has never been dry at night. My friend says he must have some emotional problem and I should take him to counselling.

Contrary to popular opinion, bed-wetting is a very common problem. It affects somewhere between five and six million children. Unfortunately, most of those kids and their parents feel that something must be emotionally wrong; that they must be suffering from low self-esteem, trauma, or stress in their lives. The great news is that, in the vast majority of cases, this is not true. You can go to your child´s doctor, Many pediatrians will recommend a choice of either bedwetting alarms, medications, both or waiting it out.

3. I have a five-month-old baby who I have been breast-feeding. Recently I started her on solid food, but she eats very little. I am worried that she is not getting enough.

The baby will take his first bite of solids at 6 months, but was so random his interest that he wasn't eating on a daily basis til around a year... and still had some breastmilk only days til a year and a half (mostly while sick or teething). There were also quite a few days after that where he would sleep through lunch. I never worried since he would nurse before and after his nap... and sometimes in the middle.

4. My two-year-old boy gets uncontrollably angry and starts screaming at the worst possible times, like in the grocery store.

You have to avoid him and let him cry because if you pay attention he would do it again, to buy him something or just for have her mommy´s attention.

5. Our five-year-old often talks obsessively, and does not seem to listen when spoken to directly. What’s more, he seems to get easily distracted when doing the simplest task.

I believe that lots children go through phases of being distracted and/or disinterested in something. It is important to remember that a child’s relationship to his parents would change from one grade to the next. Sometimes children become more confident or focused as they grow older, sometimes a new topic of conversation can make the diference
