Guest guest Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 yes, we're both croatians .. i was born here though and he was born there. he left before the war started. it was bad for our relatives on every side. my mother's relatives are in bosnia and they had to flee the fighting. my father's relatives were okay but very close to the fighting. and my husband's family had to go into the cellars almost everyday because of the shelling. it was horrible. thank goodness it's over. yeah, wouldn't that be great to open a ER restaurant over there? yum! m. --- Opernschule BGZ / Opern-VOR-Studio OVS <opernschulebgzb@...> wrote: > hey - are you telling me when you have your > restaurant there ?!?! > I come for holiday then ... hey: and make it a > ER-REstaurant ! > > so - you are croatians ? > did you flee because of war ? > wow - must have been awful for you and your > relatives ! > > love > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hi Monika. I don't mean to sound stupid, but what does "attachment parenting" mean? Can you define it for me? It sounds like it might be what I do (not obvioulsy calling it that because I didn't know) but, for the most part we do allow our girls to sleep in our bed. My youngest was born with heart defects and we were afraid she would die in her sleep, alone so we started letting her sleep with us. I nursed both girls. We didn't let our oldest because we had dogs, big ones, and didn't want her stepped on. Needless to say, they both tend to reside, at some point during the night, in our bed (which is ok with me because I like having them close to me). By the way congrats on your new puppy. Our youngest puppy is now 2 and prior to that we hadn't had a puppy in 13 years! Wow, it was a wake up call. Your baby missed his mommy and siblings it sounds like.

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hi,attachment parenting is a lot of things and parents can classify themselves as attachment parents but only follow a few of the " defining factors " lolThings like:babywearing (slings, holding them most of their infant life, wraps, avoiding strollers and baby containers like swings, cradles, cribs as much as possible) co-sleepingextended nursingnursing on-demand (no schedules, baby is nursed when hungry)nursing for comfortchild-led weaningsome parents are " crunchy " and don't vaccinate, avoid plastic, no medication etc etc but that's really a separate category AP can also stand for authentic parenting (coined by Naomi Aldort) and it's a whole different method of discipline. It's also known as connection parenting, unconditional parenting, parenting from the heart, and a few others. It's hard to explain but it's a different relationship with the child. There is no punishment, disapproval, praise, fear, no lecturing, etc. The best books I can recommend are by Jan Hunt, Naomi Aldort, Pam Leo and Alfie Kohn. What you did with your girls can be classified as Attachment parenting and that's great that they co-slept. There's scientific evidence showing it helps them develop the best in all facets; physical, emotional, mental.
