Mum doesn't work but I suspect she needs a break, considering that the teacher told me apparently this little girl throws tantrums a lot at home as well. So we might have a parenting/personality issue here.

I think it is good for kids to learn to be independent, but gently so they don't feel 'abandoned' if absolutely possible.

thanks for the title comments. Altho mostly I must admit that I get positive comments for bfing, I think that's mainly because I only talk about it on BB or at an ABA meeting!
