Childhood effects us, no doubt. There was also a very strange belief that kids don’t need to be soothed when they cry. Crazy belief if you ask me

I am not sure though if being very emotional and prone to crying relates to allergies. One of my nephews has severe allergies. Very bad. My niece has none of those. My allergy prone nephew has no crying fits whatsoever and isn’t overly emotional or was ever neglected. My daughter and ex husband have a couple of the same allergies, she isn’t crying more than most people and she was a calm baby and child. Her dad isn’t a crier or overly emotional. I just do not see the connection. How do they tie together?
