Bringing up Baby - did anybody see this?

Question

I remember watching a programme on television a few month ago about different methods of bringing up children (I think it was called "bringing up baby on C4). I think that there was a part on the programme which showed very young toddlers using sharp knives to cut their food - the theory being that they had been taught to do it safely having observed the mother doing it before... but I am having a hard time convincing people that I didn't make this up!... can anybody help??

Answer 1

Hi,

  I did watch it!!!! I did record it and remember that part about the knives, in my opinion all the methods where on the extreme, I have a 6 month old baby and I am doing the routine method (no as hard as the one in the program) and is working very well, she sleeps 7 pm to 7 am from week 8, eats 4 times a day, have her couple of naps.........she is doing fantastic and is very happy.....plus is having tons of kisses, cuddles, singing, reading......etc.

Now you can tell  you did not make it up!!!  

Answer 2

Yep it did show this, based on the Continuum principles demonstrated by Clare Scott. Because infants were carried from birth, they watch and learn the things mother does at all times.
