| I am so sorry to here that. I have the problem that cookie loves kids to much she always wants to go up to them as soon as she heres their voices. I have to hold her back in case she scares them with her kissing and excitment. Maybe try having the children give him treats.

| Mabel adores children!! It's me that can't stand em! Mine included!!! My mom had a yorkie that loved children...roasted with root vegetables and brown glaze. Just kidding! I'm in a naughty mood today! Darlene, you've got the best advice from everybody! Just imagine how Jesse feels next to a fidgety giant(to her) looming over him! Scary!

| Oh, thanks Quote:
It is sad for my baby. He used to be fearless . Now he gets scared when he sees kids. To try to help him with this, I take him where kids are, I hold him so that he's at eye level or higher than the kid and I ask the kid to be gentle so that Nicky doesn't get scared. It works, but only when I hold him up. Once I put him down while kids are near, tail gets tucked, ears down flat and he tries to get into any crevice to hide. I hope someone can help you help your baby

| It's amazing how much conflicting advice you find on the net, some sites suggest one thing, another site will suggest some totally different, very frustrating.

| So true. Darlene, I think you have to expect it is going to take some time and try different techniques until you see a little progress. Like, if Jesse relaxes just a little bit when trying one or let's his guard down, just a tiny bit....work with that one to build on. Hoping he will eventually come around to love kids for you. Good Luck!

| Lucky for me my pups LOVE kids even more than adults ... I think they like their size. They are even more gentle with the little ones. Good luck I hope you found some good tips. |

| Both of mine dislike my godson. . .I can only give that example because that is the only young child they know. . . .the kid is a terror because my niece and her husband don't parent at all . . .the kid has been running amok since birth . . .they've taught him that crying and pouting and demanding brings rewards . . .I dread Christmas Eve since he's been toddling around . . .last year was the worst . . they come over EARLIER than everyone else (don't know why) and bring nothing for him to do so he's touching this and touching that and I'm constantly right behind him saying, no hon, that's breakable . . .be careful . .don't touch . . .watch your fingers . . .Ok, so last year he decides he's going to start teasing the dogs by walking by them very slowly and then screaming and running from them . . .now upon him doing that, the dogs chase after him trying to bite him . . .So I say, Nathan, you need to go and sit nicely and let them come to you so they can smell you and get to know you . . .he completely ignores me and does it again . . .I look at my niece and I say you really need to stop him from doing that because he's making them want to bite him . . then my niece's husband responds "let him get bit it's the only way he'll learn" I was extremely aggravated . . .they really needed to get off their butts and give the kid a talking to . . .But it only took 1 time from my daughter screaming NOOOOOO that he finally went into another room and sat and pouted . . .come to find out when Brody was trying to go into the room he was in, my lovely godson tried to kick him . . . He's 4 this year, but is still uncontrollable and I'm already thinking about how awful it's going to be when he's here. Don't know what I'm going to do this year, I'd love to call my niece and tell them not to come, but that would bring bad feelings to my brother (it's his daughter) I might not have any choice but to put up the baby gate and keep my babies in my room for the night . . .

| Oh, how I feel for you Quote:
Since my nieces had no one to discipline them, I did the honors . I'm not suggesting that you do the same and do what no one is willing to do (straighten the kid out), just that you have to draw the line somewhere. I know what you and your babies are going to put up with. So sad Be strong for your babies' sake and don't let them be abused. You know what experts say about serial killers and disturbed men...they start as mean kids who kick the dog
