Back from JFK today, feeling weary.
Had two babies crying non-stop during the entire 13 hrs flight.
One of the Moms asked me, "My baby cried very hard during the flight, do you have any advice how I can make him feel better?"
I was stoned (and confused). In my heart, I was thinking, "It is YOUR baby. He yelled the whole night annoying everyone on the plane, and yet you asked me how to control YOUR baby."
I told her I do not know and I apologized for not being able to be of any help.
Her sister said thanks and they went off the plane.
And then, I came to a conclusion. Every mother in the world understands and knows their baby's need. Unless he is NOT your baby.
