Your Brilliant Baby in Week 31: Sensing Conflict

Week 31 Brain Booster

Here's the take-away, Mom and Dad: Work on your relationships. Conflicts will occur and should not necessarily be avoided or swept under the familial rug. Instead, resolve any differences as completely and quickly as you can and have your children, even very young children, see and sense that your relationship is once again harmonious and that your differences have been resolved. You'll not only alleviate undue stress on your baby, but you'll be modeling healthy relationships, as well.
