Kindergarten is the first of your child in a new life of a baby because he will not be near his mother the whole day through he will become a part of a large group of children of the same age, nurses and kindergartners. Adaptation to kindergarten is individual. In any case separation from parents for 6-8 hours is stressful for the baby and of course for his mother. Even if kindergartener is the most caring person he will not be able to give mother’s love and maximum care because kindergarteners are “second parents” of 15-25 other children.

Mothers are aware but it is not possible to keep your child nearby for the whole life. The Super-Sexualization of Children: Time to Take Notice. I remember visiting a first grade class sometime around 1999 to discuss with the students the basics of human reproduction.

14 Month Old Hits Mom. I have a wonderful, beautiful 14 month old girl that has just recently begun hitting and slapping me (her mommy) in the face when she gets upset.

14 Month Old Hits Mom

I have consistently taken her hand and firmly said, "We don't hit our mommy" or "No hitting mommy" but she still continues to do this. Its worse if she wants something that she can't have or I take something away from her that is potentially harmful however we go through this behavior a couple times a day or more if she's not feeling well i. e. teething. Many times when I tell her not to hit me, she starts crying and her face just crumples up and I feel awful so I hold her and tell her its ok. I'm a first time mommy and I wonder if I'm doing the right thing.

Some advice would be greatly appreciated.

Delaying Parenthood May Come at a Cost. We're engaged in a great natural experiment in the timing of parenthood , according to a remarkable cover story in this week's The New Republic , and it's not necessarily going to end well.

With more and more young people waiting until their late 30s and early 40s to start their families, writes Judith Shulevitz, this great natural experiment will affect "what our families and our workforce will look like, how healthy we’ll be, and also—not to be too eugenicist about it—the future well-being of the human race. " Shulevitz then breaks into an aside about some of the positive aspects of the slower path toward parenthood, especially for young women: A remarkable feature of the new older parenting is how happy women seem to be about it. It’s considered a feminist triumph, in part because it’s the product of feminist breakthroughs: birth control, which gives women the power to pace their own fertility, and access to good jobs, which gives them reason to delay it.
