At 10 months old, Suzie is very active, responds intensely to stimulation, avoids new stimulation, and tends to be irritable and fussy
Suzie's mother, Anne, wants to be a good caregiver, but Suzie's fussiness and intensity have made her feel like a failure. Anne sometimes finds herself withdrawing from Suzie and not responding when Suzie cries, because she feels like it will do no good. What advice should Anne's counselor give her?
a. Anne has been too responsive to the baby's crying. She needs to refuse to go to the baby when it cries to teach Suzie to be more independent.
b. Anne is not responsible for her baby's fussiness. Some babies are needier and more negative than others. In the long run, continuing to be responsive to crying will help Suzie to better regulate her emotions.
c. It really doesn't matter what Anne does. Of course Suzie needs to be fed, diapered, and so on, but Anne's responsiveness will not affect whether Suzie cries a lot or a little.
d. Anne's counselor should stay out of it.
