comment How to stop my son being overly sensitive of his peers?
@Erin - something to do with this being a normal human behavior. Of COURSE he is doing it to make himself feel better. Doesn't make it bullying. Bullying is intentionally HARMING someone. Having your feelings hurt because you're jealous does not constitute harm.

comment How to stop my son being overly sensitive of his peers?
@Erin - sorry, I disagree completely. Bullying is about intentionally harming. The OP made it pretty clear that there's no intent to harm. Let's not dilute actual damaging behavior like bullying by labeling anything leading to hurt feelings as "bullying". Otherwise pretty much ALL human behavior becomes bullying, especially behavior exhibited by non-adults.

comment What toys tend to be a child's favorite, and why?
Plus, they emulate adults. E.g. "take the lunchbag like papa and go to work", "put things in a box to organize them", "this is my wallet" etc...

comment How do I deal with my baby pulling herself up in her crib?
I hadn't thought of possibility of climbing them either. But my kids, sadly, did :) We took the bumpers away from the crib pretty early on to reduce the risk of climbing/falling out
