Gerry, you sound like a fantastic mummy Glad you are enjoying Pinky's book, that's wonderful! Hopefully you'll be able to get a copy of Pinky's other books, as well as perhaps The Science of Parenting, and The Wonder Weeks. But most of all (as Pinky says ) follow your heart and your instincts..........everything else will follow. There is no ONE 'right way' to do things with our children, they are all individual, as are we!

So glad you found the support you needed
