[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 270706, member: 1991"] So do I, but then I remember when I was a new mother and too close to the situation to see the obvious answer. I would be pacing the floor with a crying baby, and ring my mother in desperation. She would hear the baby crying and say something obvious, like, "He sounds like he has wind, and is tired. Stop pacing, lay him down across your knee and rub his tummy. Then sit him with his knees under him, and rub his back. When he burps, give him a few minutes' feeding, and he should then fall asleep." And she would be right. And it was so obvious, I waas annoyed with myself for not seeing it too. If I hadn't been so tired and mentally exhausted I would have seen it myself. So I'm sympathetic with school staff - so long as they are making a genuine effort. Otherwise I get tetchy with them and show it. Marg [/QUOTE]
