Actually, in the original post it was mentioned that the child is 3 years old...that means she will likely be going to school next year and will need to learn not to cry about everything. I mentioned that my son is a bit of a crier, BUT he never does it when he is not at home. He is going to preschool 5 mornings a week and he has never cried at school or given any trouble to his teacher (that I know of). I am also doing everything possible to snap him out of the crying. I do think we have to have reasonable expectations of the kids...kids do rise to expectations often and if we set the bar too low then they remain "babies" for much longer than necessary and this does not do them any service as they will struggle to adjust when they start school.
