I will tell you now, plain as day, that no human being in their right mind will tell you to ignore your child who has woken up crying after sleeping for at least 9hrs. If that's what you believe in, that's on you, but I think that's the most ignorant bs you could even think about doing.

But again, like FatBooty stated, this has NOTHING to do with the question. Was I wrong for my part in the exchange that led to her going to her room crying?

What you're failing to realize that its not "ignoring". Thats a common misnomer. That is simply not the case. And as far as me not having any qualifications...frankly I never said I did, but they do have psycholgists write those "how to raise your child" books for a reason. Besides, your method has yet to prove long term results

Anyway, I think you should have stayed out of it, unless you can be there every time a situtation like this arises, and that is probably unlikely. They've got to deal with their own issues.
