Guest guest Posted December 15, 2000 Report Share Posted December 15, 2000 HI Pooh fans, When andra was three, she asked me what our bottoms were made of, so I got her a book about the human body, bones and muscles, etc. Turns out she was really just interested in the Tigger song,as in ... " Tiggers are wonderful things! Their tops are made out of rubber! Their bottoms are made out of springs! " p.s. - Aureen, can anything be done about Rabbit's constant irritability?

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2000 Report Share Posted December 16, 2000 Lesli, That story about the " bottoms " is just darling! About Rabbit, irritability is just another sign of depression. Which reminds me--that was another big problem with the study--no mention of some good CBT at all. I think the enchanted forest needs a good treatment plan and I'm working on it! A good dose of exposure for the anxious ones, a point system for good behavior for the wild ones, some exciting fun stuff for the whiny ones...... (I do have better things to do with my time, of course. Just taking a few minutes for some fun...)
