Do parents really become desensitized to the sounds of their kids screaming?



No way. Not me at least. But sometimes there isnt a thing parents can do.Colic is one of those common but mysterious things. They don't know if its from the womb or if it's gas. Or a headache. Teething is another possibility. Unless the assholes are doin' it Ferber style.

Hope this helps if only a little. My kids didn't have colic but my boyfriend's nephews did.

NO!I do get bothered. I especially hate when my son "mmmMM Mmmmm MMMMmm MMMmMmmM MMMMM MmmM Mmmmm's" THROUGHOUT an ENTIRE meal. Very annoying.

I never did baby talk either so it helped as far as him learning how to speak properly faster.

Do you hear them beat the kids?... Do they scream?... Does it smell in their house? I suggest you call CPS anon.

EDiT:OR Give them a Sesame Street DVD and hairy rolluPs!
