An ICL Account Manager I knew some years ago did just that.Originally posted by cailin maith View PostLock them in their bedrooms and turn the stereo on really loud...
He was in his 50s, his wife in her 20s. (Yes, he did have loads of money now you ask.)
When they had a baby (her first, his 5th or 6th or something) we try to tease him about not sleeping.
"I sleep fine. I can't hear it in the bathroom in the West Wing. The wife doesn't like it, of course, but the child has to learn. The more it seeks attention, the more it will be ignored."
No, he wasn't kidding. Every time the baby cried in the night, it went into a carry-thingie and got plonked in a distant bathroom.
He reckoned this child was better than the others; it only took it four weeks to learn never to cry at night; some of his other kids had taken up to six weeks.Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.
