Mum goes viral for sharing why she doesn't let her kids self-soothe
One mum has gone viral on TikTok after sharing her reason for not letting her children under two self-soothe.
A mother of three, known online as Sarah Falls, has shared her personal journey and decision to no longer let her babies cry alone. In a recent video, Falls explained that her approach to parenting has evolved, particularly after an uncomfortable experience with the 'cry it out' method with her daughter. She now prioritizes responding to every cry from her children, especially those under two, to provide immediate comfort and support. "I do not let him be alone in that moment unless he's physically pushing me away," Falls stated, referring to her one-and-a-half-year-old son. She added that she remains with her children throughout their emotional expressions, helping to soothe them as needed. Falls emphasized that this decision is rooted in her confidence as a parent and her understanding of her children's individual needs, asserting that external opinions would not sway her mind on the matter.
