1-Year-Old Gets Adorably Upset When Daddy Prepares To Go To Work

Watching her cling to her papa’s pant leg really breaks our hearts! Why does he have to go every day and leave her at home alone with mom?! Dad knows she won’t separate herself from him, so he asks the question that is on everyone’s mind: “Do you want to come with papa to work?” and as if she understood him perfectly, she grabs the fabric on his pants and tries to pull herself up! Of course she does! The office is no place for a cute tot like that, so he just tells her he’s sorry and he has to go, to which those bright little eyes go blurry with tears! She lets go of dad and puts her teny hands on the door. No one is getting out! As discouraging as that may sound, it can be very helpful to remember that separation crisis is completely normal, even healthy. "From the earliest years of life, we should want children to encounter ordinary adversity because it's practice for building resilience," says Aaron Cooper, Ph.D., co-author of ‘I Just Want My Kids to Be Happy! Why You Shouldn't Say It…’ To minimize your child’s suffering, you can start early, to accustom your baby to you leaving for a period of time for work. Keep your goodbye short always and keep a cheerful mode on. And of course, do what this little tot’s dad did and create a ritual when they get older, to create order into the departure.
