Smiley?


Siyuan smiles and laughs a lot when we play with him. Heck, sometimes he just smile and laugh when he notices us walking by and giving him a glance. Friends also noticed he's quite a smiley.
We wonder if all babies are like that, or is it just that this is part of his character formation? Nurses say the core character of a person is formed in his first three years, which is why some of them advocate not letting a baby cry too long on their own, least a part of that fear and anxiety creep into their character.
Others of course say we should let the baby cry some times so that they learn to be more independent, especially when sleeping is concerned.
Wife says she's soft-hearted to let Siyuan cry too long, so I don't think that's a parenting method we will use. Wife is a very nice softie :)
