    I think it`s just a bad habit and I don`t allow it. Luckily it hasn`t been a problem as of yet...noone`s asked me to. If it were to happen I`d hope that the parents would be on board to break a bad habit the earliest possible. If not, I would still not allow. They`re smart and understand what is acceptable at home and at daycare. Some parents rock their kids to sleep, I simply place them down and won`t do more. They get used to it, even if the parents continue to put their kids to sleep at home.

    I ended up explaining to mom that she'll see the others eating and will eat herself. Kids won't starve themselves and will become more flexible when hungry. And it's her choice if she wants to wean her now from the bottle in bed or when she starts daycare. So if she continues to argue the fact I may take others advice and state "my daycare, my rules, my policies are non-negotiable". Then she can decide if she wants to send her child to me
