How to get my kid to not cry when not given iphone?
My daighter is 1 and 3 months and it has gotten me frustrated that whenever i pull out my phone she wants to play with it and use it. When i say to
Her that phones are not for babies she cries and throws a tantrum i was wondering if there was any suggestions in how to be able to pull out my phone with out her wanting it or throwing a tantrum?
Get her one of the little play phones
Give her a friggin toy for gods sake. You can't bargain with a baby
Buy her a toy phone for her, and use the iphone as little as possible when around her.
My bfs son was like that, we got him a toy phone. That worked great for a while, but then he wanted the 'real deal' (once he turned 3). His mom gave him her old phone to play with when she got a new one. He thought that was the cats meow. Now he gets to play with daddy's phone when we're in the car, to watch a movie or play games on, but otherwise we distract him with other toys.
Kids try to emulate their parents, so whatever they see mommy or daddy doing, they want to do it too. It's normal.
Best way to deal with tantrums is to not give in. If your daughter knows that if she cries long enough she'll get your phone, then she'll cry. Give her two other toys and say, "You can't play with mommy's phone because it's not a toy. You can play with this toy or that toy."
The "this is not a toy" line works great with my boyfriend's son. Whenever he goes to touch anything he shouldn't, all I have to say is, "No honey, that is not a toy" and he stops. I got that to work by showing him the difference between toys and non-toys when he was about 18 months. You hold up a few different toys and say, "this is a toy, you can play with this" for each one, smiling and nodding, letting them touch it, and then you point to something that's not a toy, and you say, "This is not a toy, No." with a frown face, and put it behind your back.
Let her cry and throw a tantrum. You need to stand your ground when you say no. She needs to know that your phone is not to play with and is only for big people. Get her a toy phone when she stops her tantrums never give a child something when they are throwing a fit it doesn't teach them anything.
Just give her a toy phone or if you have a deactivated cellphone you can give her that. If she wants to play on your phone just say No this is mommy's phone. It's not for kids. The fits are normal, they will stop. She is doing it so you'll give her what she wants. If you just ignore her fit she'll stop when she realizes that you aren't giving it to her
Ignore her or spank her. Or do both. Let her cry about it, she doenst need to play on it at all. Don't buy her a toy phone, that is just rewarding her for having tantrums

- Setting up a College-given Hotmail account in Mail or Sparrow for iPhone? I attend a school where the email given is hotmail, but the address is not xxxx@hotmail.com. When I try to access my account on Mail or Sparrow on my iPhone, I can't get it to work. It either says that it can't connect, or asks for ingoing/outgoing servers, etc.etc. And then tells me it can't connect. If anyone has any ideas for Mail or Sparrow they would be much appreciated! I will use whichever I can get to work, so please let me know if you have ideas for either app.
