ATTACHMENT PARENTING

When Jonah was a baby, I read a lot of books on "Attachment Parenting...."

I think I missed the chapter about how to handle a child literally attaching themselves to you... when you're trying to make lunch, or get dressed...

... it was like an appendage... that I had no choice but to drag with me wherever I went....


I missed that part on Attachment Parenting. Especially the part where said child knows it's funny and knows you kind of think it's funny too.

This made me giggle! A friend of mine from high school is DEVOTED to the principle of atachment parenting. They're on their third child too (all home births). I cannot imagine wearing my three year old, who weighed 33 pounds, on his demand. Maybe I don't fully understand the AP concept, but this seems over the top to me!

I suppose that I follow the AP thing to some extent, but this post had me chuckling, too. Super cute!
