My son is a year and a half. We typically walk him till he is asleep or drowsy before we put him down. About 2 weeks ago, I started putting him down after his evening bath bribing him with his pacifier and he would go to bed on his own then I had to be gone for two weeks. Now he absolutely is against going into his crib and has moved on beyond the pacifier. Any ideas on how I get him to sleep of his own accord in his crib?

Why not get him a small bed that has guard rails. Seems as though he is over the crib maybe?

Not sure I fully understand why he won’t go to sleep

At a certain point, we just let out sons cry until the calmed down and fell asleep. Usually lasted b/w 5 - 35 minutes. Its heart wrenching but it was the quickest method. Kids have to learn how to self-soothe or else they will rely on you to always put them to sleep.

My almost 3 yr old has reverted to crying once we put her down again. She cries for 10-20 mins, then passes out. She was good for the last year…sleep regressions are fun.

I have a nice job, decent salary, i work out and eat healthy, maintain my health, read 3 to 4 books every month, dont have any personal commitments (single), in my early 30s and things cant be any better. Of course with the exception that i had a real bad break-up with my fiancé 6 months ago. And i dont have any symptoms of depression, but there are days when i just feel like what is all this for?

Hi guys

This question may not be related. However I wanted to know from personal and family point of view how it is like to relocate from India and live abroad .
Let's say Family consists of husband , wife and a kid . I understand we will get good facilities, education, cleanliness , good air etc , however I wanted to check whether people gel up easily in the new environment? Don't they feel loneliness/ difficult to adjust? Do they look for similar asian nationalities to kill boredom?

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

Help!! My bestfriend is doing two months abroad and was trying to fly into turkey when they told her she couldn't because her passport expired within three months.

She went to the US Embassay in Athens knowing she had a month left of traveling, and gave her an emergency passport and punched holes in her exsisting one. Now no country will let her in with her emergency passport.

Can her mom get her a passport in the US and ship it to her? Is there anyway around this?

Thank you!!

At my uncles wedding in Madrid I remember lying down on the grass in the courtyard after their first dance and crying, my Dad came and saw me, laid down in his suit beside me and asked what was wrong.

“I know my boyfriend wouldn’t dance with me like that at our wedding”

And we just lay there as I cried, and then got up. Had a drink.

Said boyfriend left years ago, and now I have a wonderful man who just asked me what type of dance lessons I want for our wedding next year.

Don’t give up.
