                <description><![CDATA[I’m not one to question the value of demonstrative love and affection.  Giving hugs is such a reflex for me that I embarrass myself by hugging people I barely know. I’ll often come to my senses midway through the ‘hello’ or ‘goodbye’ hug &#8212; too late to catch myself. This creates some awkward moments, but [...] <a href="http://www.janetlansbury.com/2010/06/can-babies-love-too-much-teaching-children-to-give-affection-with-respect/">Read More</a>]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A recent post, Is Your Baby A Bully? Genius? Shy? Why We Should Lose Labels, stirred up unexpected controversy. Several parents were apparently shocked by my suggestion that babies could play together with minimal intervention, without adults reminding the babies to share, or asking them to give something back because “so-and-so had it first”.

                <description><![CDATA[A toddler acting out is not shameful, nor is it behavior that needs punishing. It’s a cry for attention, a shout-out for sleep, or a call to action for firmer, more consistent limits. It is the push-pull of your toddler testing his burgeoning independence. He has the overwhelming impulse to step out of bounds, while [...] <a href="http://www.janetlansbury.com/2010/04/no-bad-kids-toddler-discipline-without-shame-9-guidelines/">Read More</a>]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Parenting can be a humbling and embarrassing experience, especially when we find ourselves at the mercy of our children’s guilelessness. Children say and do what they feel. While this instinct is endearing, even admirable, it can also be a bit awkward in the moment when, for example, our daughter spots a topless man in the [...] <a href="http://www.janetlansbury.com/2009/12/youll-be-sorry/">Read More</a>]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[When an infant approaches the end of his first year, parents begin to struggle with boundaries. Soft-hearted parents allow a child to climb all over them in my parent/infant class. The child is searching for limits and boundaries for his behavior. But moms and dads are often afraid to say, “I don’t want you to [...] <a href="http://www.janetlansbury.com/2009/10/securing-boundaries-no-walk-in-the-park/">Read More</a>]]></description>
