She’s already learned how to mess with Mommy’s mind. Or I should correct myself — females don’t need to learn how to mess with your mind. It’s in their DNA.
Found this quote last night while studying psych “The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a woman want?”
SIGMUND FREUD, Ernest Jones’ Sigmund Freud: Life and Work
Don’t have to be. I have two daughters and both of them knew how to manipulate from the get go. Women have always known how to manipulate. It is in their nature. Goes back to Eve getting Adam to eat the forbidden fruit.
One of my boys was taken care of by a baby sitter while I worked. He was always at the storm door, jumping for joy when I came for him in evenings. One evening, instead of turning up the walk, just walked on by. Sitter was wondering why his joy suddenly turned to Waaaaah! (I did go back and get him)
Just like I said when Elly dropped her off that morning . . . once Lizzy started playing with new toys and making new friends, her mommy’s earlier “abandonment” would be the furthest thing from her mind!

After all that worrying, feeling guilty, etc. was it really worth it, Elly?

“toys are here to get me? Who are toys?” L She’s too intent on the toys, she didn’t realize mommy wast late. Gotta love the resiliency of kids.

I call BS on this one. Sure, she may be having fun and not wanting to leave, but to not remember who Mommy is? C’mon…
