21 Answers
Hi
just wanted to know how to go about this or not go about it at all...i live with my brother his gf and my 1 and a half year old niece in my dads house-we all lived here before (i am saving to move out and so are they) trouble is-everytime, and this is lately, i come near my niece she screams and cries hyserically, and its come to the point now where im tiptoeing around her. Her parents just ignore it, but i dont think they should-they should be doing something about it! ive never shouted or been horrible around the child so i dont know whats brought it on. do know that everybody spoils her alot though! should i say something next time she does it? or just wait if she grows out of it?

Sometimes they grow out of it but I am all for the theory that you should not pander to children.
I would leave you to babysite for an hour in the afternoon and get to (re) know her. If you are normally distant to her she may have got a silly notion into her head, they do that some times, so need her to feel comfortable in your presence otherwise your home life for a while is going to be difficult.

no i havent got facial hair! she used to be really good with me! no she doesnt really speak so she wouldnt really understand any adult discussion-she knows words around play/ food ect. her mum wont anyone babysit her the chid and her mum are in all day everyday. i love her to bits so no i dont ever disprove of her being spoilt at all-i have spoiled her as others contunie to do so but i think its kind of affecting her behaviour-i used to spend time with her but she hits alot (she isnt hit) and last time she left a 3 inch scab down my neck, i dont want the child to feel distant from me so i try to speak to her but she screams so i avoid her now as not to distress her but its quite irritating for me.
My daughter used to scream and cry whenever either of my brothers went near her. They had never shouted at her or done anything that would have upset her. In fact the elder brother always had a sweet, a biscuit or a packet of crisps for her, he had a grocers shop. She grew out of it and loved them both by the time she was around 4 years old. She didn't like men very much at that age - she grew out of that too. :-)) My son was very wary around his aunts but was ok with his uncles. I think it's just their funny ways and they grow out of it. Not very nice while it lasts though.
