Baby Training Part 1
Baby trainers are business people.
They want to make money.
They know how to market.
They have money to spend on flash books and big eye popping web sites.
They prey on the tired parents of this world.
They make you feel empowered with their information. You can change your baby and make it a “good baby”.
“Here....right here is that box for you to fit your baby in, just like all the others”
You are led to believe that your baby is “bad” or that is there is something wrong with it if it does not sleep through the night or that it needs to be held all the time.
Baby trainers may say that they have studied in psychology.
I bet they do.....That is what marketing is all about.
Maybe telling you a sob story to pull you in get you feeling as if they really care.
Then they will spin the same old story of how many minutes you should leave your baby to cry before you go in and comfort them.
“But it works” I hear you say
Of course it does.
We all know that if you hit someone physically or mentally long enough they will do what you want.
It doesn’t mean that they will be happy in doing it, that they like doing it.
And to boot they are scared for life.
“Oh rubbish” I hear some of you say
Ok let us look at it another way.
What adds you see on TV?
Coke, McD’s, Chips.
Do you see adds for apples, potatoes or home cooked meals?
No!
There is no money in that, as people can do that for themselves.
Who are the first people that come up in a google search?
The cold hearts of the businessperson.
They are calculating people that want to get their book out there.
You really have to look hard for some REAL advice.
Baby trainers use Fear
Fear that if you do not follow their advice that things will get worse.
They will paint a picture of your baby as abnormal if its not sleeping through the night or it is asking to be held or will not go to a stranger (a visiting friend).
There are wise baby’s out there, there are whispering baby’s and baby’s saving their sleep. So many different choices and ways to train your baby.
Leave the training to dog trainers and let us teach our babies with love and care.
What we need to do is look at books or medical information we need to look at human development studies. Please don’t line these baby trainers’ pockets with your money and your baby’s broken personality.
We need to look into our hearts....and we need to Educate Educate Educate
