any trouble or annoyance; others violently resist any attempt at weaning until the age of two. But this innate desire lessens as the child advances in age, and once he reaches an age
that fits him for weaning, the mother finds the task extremely easy.
When your child is in his seventh or eighth month, offer him a little milk in a mug or a cup; the ordinary child gradually learns to take his milk in this way. This cup may be given daily for months while the child still nurses from the bottle or the breast, and his acceptance of the cup increases with time, as his desire for sucking begins to dissolve. This may happen in his eleventh month, for instance, or as late as the second year. Most children can drink their milk from the cup or the glass before the age of two, even if some of them insist on the bottle. And when he begins to drink the equivalent of his fill from the cup, it is to be understood from this that the child is capable of being weaned without his hopes
being disappointed or his being made to suffer.
In some cases of a child's upbringing it is not advisable to impose weaning by force, for imposing it is sometimes harmful, even if its success is outwardly apparent. Nor should the mother expect the child to submit to weaning when he is in a state of weakness or illness, or in the teething stage.
It is most necessary that the child grow up believing that his mother loves him and cares for him, and that he can depend upon her for his primary needs. Rapid weaning, imposed at too early an age, weak
ens this bond between the child and his mother, and exposes the child to complexes that may have grave consequences, or establishes in him bad habits which it will afterward be among the hardest of things to uproot — as we noted in the case of thumb-sucking, or sucking the blanket, and the like.
This is what you should remember, madam, when you set about weaning your child. Take him with gentleness and long patience, and lavish upon him your tenderness and your love, for his need of this love is above his need of the food itself. Remember this always.
