Further to my earlier post about a dcb who continues to cry and scream all day every day as a result of teething or act of control. Well, guess what I want to know is how long will you allow "teething" to be parents excuse for poor behaviour? My 14 mth dcb is just driving me bananas to the point that nothing comforts him most days. If he's not sleeping or eating then he's crying or screaming hysterically. This has been going on for about 3 weeks everyday. Parents keep saying they will take him to the doc to make sure nothing else is wrong with him. There's days where it's noticeably teething and there's other days where I pick him up and he's fine. I refuse to set that standard and don't have time to hold him all day long. It is just soooooo disruptive, I just want to scream myself!!! Help please.
