I think their capacity to learn & understand is directly proportional to how much we "allow" them to. We have never "cutchie-coo'd" our boys, and their language development is WAY above other kids' of their age. And they surprise us with their understanding too (Matt told teacher during insect-theme this morning, that a spider IS NOT AN INSECT, cos it has 8 legs, not 6. I think I knew that, but know his dad does.) Jo sounds like a character I'd like to meet! I'll book an appointment sometime. And tell Michelle she needs to share such strategies as "sleeping-bag-confinement" with all of us. I might have re-thought the Nemo duvets. Brilliant.
