It <\/span>was <\/span>a <\/span>peaceful <\/span>day <\/span>in <\/span>the <\/span>monkey <\/span>group, <\/span>but <\/span>for <\/span>one <\/span>tiny <\/span>baby <\/span>monkey, <\/span>everything <\/span>seemed <\/span>to <\/span>be <\/span>going <\/span>wrong. <\/span>This <\/span>little <\/span>baby <\/span>was <\/span>still <\/span>very <\/span>young, <\/span>full <\/span>of <\/span>emotions, <\/span>and <\/span>not <\/span>yet <\/span>able <\/span>to <\/span>understand <\/span>why <\/span>his <\/span>mother <\/span>could <\/span>not <\/span>always <\/span>give <\/span>him <\/span>the <\/span>attention <\/span>he <\/span>wanted. <\/span>Whenever <\/span>he <\/span>felt <\/span>upset, <\/span>frightened, <\/span>or <\/span>unhappy, <\/span>he <\/span>knew <\/span>only <\/span>one <\/span>way <\/span>to <\/span>express <\/span>himself <\/span>\u2014 <\/span>by <\/span>crying <\/span>as <\/span>loudly <\/span>as <\/span>he <\/span>could <\/span>and <\/span>demanding <\/span>that <\/span>everyone <\/span>pay <\/span>attention <\/span>to <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

That <\/span>day, <\/span>his <\/span>little <\/span>heart <\/span>was <\/span>full <\/span>of <\/span>frustration, <\/span>and <\/span>nobody <\/span>seemed <\/span>able <\/span>to <\/span>calm <\/span>him <\/span>down.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>tiny <\/span>baby <\/span>had <\/span>been <\/span>staying <\/span>close <\/span>to <\/span>his <\/span>mother, <\/span>following <\/span>her <\/span>wherever <\/span>she <\/span>went. <\/span>He <\/span>wanted <\/span>to <\/span>be <\/span>carried, <\/span>cuddled, <\/span>and <\/span>comforted <\/span>every <\/span>moment. <\/span>Whenever <\/span>Mom <\/span>moved <\/span>away <\/span>to <\/span>look <\/span>for <\/span>food <\/span>or <\/span>take <\/span>care <\/span>of <\/span>herself, <\/span>the <\/span>baby <\/span>immediately <\/span>became <\/span>unhappy. <\/span>He <\/span>would <\/span>reach <\/span>out <\/span>his <\/span>tiny <\/span>hands, <\/span>make <\/span>desperate <\/span>little <\/span>calls, <\/span>and <\/span>beg <\/span>her <\/span>to <\/span>come <\/span>back.<\/span><\/p>\n

At <\/span>first, <\/span>Mom <\/span>tried <\/span>to <\/span>be <\/span>patient. <\/span>She <\/span>looked <\/span>down <\/span>at <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>one, <\/span>touched <\/span>him <\/span>gently, <\/span>and <\/span>allowed <\/span>him <\/span>to <\/span>stay <\/span>close <\/span>to <\/span>her. <\/span>But <\/span>the <\/span>baby <\/span>wanted <\/span>more <\/span>than <\/span>just <\/span>a <\/span>few <\/span>moments <\/span>of <\/span>attention. <\/span>He <\/span>wanted <\/span>his <\/span>mother <\/span>all <\/span>to <\/span>himself, <\/span>and <\/span>he <\/span>wanted <\/span>her <\/span>to <\/span>stop <\/span>everything <\/span>she <\/span>was <\/span>doing <\/span>and <\/span>focus <\/span>entirely <\/span>on <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

When <\/span>Mom <\/span>finally <\/span>decided <\/span>to <\/span>move <\/span>away, <\/span>the <\/span>little <\/span>baby <\/span>could <\/span>not <\/span>accept <\/span>it.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>suddenly <\/span>began <\/span>to <\/span>cry.<\/span><\/p>\n

At <\/span>first, <\/span>his <\/span>cries <\/span>were <\/span>small <\/span>and <\/span>shaky, <\/span>as <\/span>if <\/span>he <\/span>were <\/span>simply <\/span>asking <\/span>his <\/span>mother <\/span>not <\/span>to <\/span>leave. <\/span>But <\/span>when <\/span>Mom <\/span>continued <\/span>walking, <\/span>his <\/span>crying <\/span>became <\/span>louder <\/span>and <\/span>louder. <\/span>He <\/span>stretched <\/span>out <\/span>both <\/span>arms <\/span>toward <\/span>her, <\/span>calling <\/span>desperately <\/span>for <\/span>her <\/span>to <\/span>return.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mom <\/span>turned <\/span>around <\/span>to <\/span>look <\/span>at <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

For <\/span>a <\/span>moment, <\/span>the <\/span>baby <\/span>seemed <\/span>to <\/span>think <\/span>she <\/span>was <\/span>coming <\/span>back. <\/span>He <\/span>quickly <\/span>reached <\/span>toward <\/span>her, <\/span>hoping <\/span>she <\/span>would <\/span>pick <\/span>him <\/span>up <\/span>and <\/span>hold <\/span>him <\/span>against <\/span>her <\/span>chest.<\/span><\/p>\n

But <\/span>Mom <\/span>was <\/span>tired. <\/span>She <\/span>had <\/span>already <\/span>spent <\/span>a <\/span>long <\/span>time <\/span>caring <\/span>for <\/span>her <\/span>demanding <\/span>little <\/span>baby, <\/span>and <\/span>she <\/span>needed <\/span>a <\/span>moment <\/span>to <\/span>herself. <\/span>She <\/span>looked <\/span>at <\/span>him <\/span>briefly <\/span>before <\/span>turning <\/span>away <\/span>again.<\/span><\/p>\n

That <\/span>was <\/span>when <\/span>the <\/span>real <\/span>tantrum <\/span>began.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>tiny <\/span>baby <\/span>threw <\/span>himself <\/span>onto <\/span>the <\/span>ground <\/span>and <\/span>started <\/span>screaming <\/span>at <\/span>the <\/span>top <\/span>of <\/span>his <\/span>little <\/span>lungs. <\/span>He <\/span>rolled <\/span>from <\/span>one <\/span>side <\/span>to <\/span>the <\/span>other, <\/span>kicked <\/span>his <\/span>tiny <\/span>legs, <\/span>waved <\/span>his <\/span>arms, <\/span>and <\/span>cried <\/span>as <\/span>if <\/span>the <\/span>whole <\/span>world <\/span>had <\/span>abandoned <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>little <\/span>face <\/span>became <\/span>scrunched <\/span>up <\/span>with <\/span>unhappiness. <\/span>His <\/span>mouth <\/span>opened <\/span>wide, <\/span>and <\/span>his <\/span>loud <\/span>cries <\/span>echoed <\/span>through <\/span>the <\/span>surrounding <\/span>trees <\/span>and <\/span>stones.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>was <\/span>not <\/span>interested <\/span>in <\/span>standing <\/span>up.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>was <\/span>not <\/span>interested <\/span>in <\/span>following <\/span>Mom.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>he <\/span>certainly <\/span>was <\/span>not <\/span>interested <\/span>in <\/span>accepting <\/span>anyone <\/span>else’s <\/span>comfort.<\/span><\/p>\n

All <\/span>he <\/span>wanted <\/span>was <\/span>his <\/span>mother.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whenever <\/span>another <\/span>monkey <\/span>moved <\/span>nearby, <\/span>the <\/span>baby <\/span>cried <\/span>even <\/span>louder, <\/span>almost <\/span>as <\/span>if <\/span>he <\/span>wanted <\/span>everyone <\/span>in <\/span>the <\/span>group <\/span>to <\/span>know <\/span>just <\/span>how <\/span>unhappy <\/span>he <\/span>was. <\/span>He <\/span>kicked <\/span>his <\/span>feet <\/span>against <\/span>the <\/span>ground <\/span>and <\/span>stubbornly <\/span>refused <\/span>to <\/span>get <\/span>up.<\/span><\/p>\n

It <\/span>was <\/span>such <\/span>a <\/span>dramatic <\/span>scene <\/span>for <\/span>such <\/span>a <\/span>tiny <\/span>little <\/span>monkey!<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>mother <\/span>glanced <\/span>back <\/span>several <\/span>times, <\/span>but <\/span>the <\/span>baby <\/span>continued <\/span>his <\/span>performance. <\/span>Every <\/span>time <\/span>she <\/span>seemed <\/span>ready <\/span>to <\/span>move <\/span>closer, <\/span>he <\/span>stretched <\/span>out <\/span>his <\/span>arms <\/span>and <\/span>cried <\/span>even <\/span>harder, <\/span>demanding <\/span>that <\/span>she <\/span>come <\/span>and <\/span>pick <\/span>him <\/span>up.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mom <\/span>finally <\/span>looked <\/span>exhausted. <\/span>She <\/span>had <\/span>tried <\/span>to <\/span>comfort <\/span>him, <\/span>but <\/span>nothing <\/span>seemed <\/span>to <\/span>satisfy <\/span>him. <\/span>She <\/span>needed <\/span>to <\/span>move <\/span>away <\/span>to <\/span>forage <\/span>and <\/span>take <\/span>care <\/span>of <\/span>her <\/span>own <\/span>needs, <\/span>yet <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>one <\/span>seemed <\/span>determined <\/span>to <\/span>make <\/span>that <\/span>as <\/span>difficult <\/span>as <\/span>possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>then <\/span>something <\/span>unexpected <\/span>happened.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>came <\/span>over.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>had <\/span>been <\/span>watching <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>brother’s <\/span>dramatic <\/span>behavior, <\/span>and <\/span>perhaps <\/span>she <\/span>felt <\/span>sorry <\/span>for <\/span>him. <\/span>Although <\/span>she <\/span>was <\/span>still <\/span>a <\/span>young <\/span>monkey <\/span>herself, <\/span>she <\/span>seemed <\/span>to <\/span>understand <\/span>that <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>brother <\/span>was <\/span>upset <\/span>and <\/span>needed <\/span>some <\/span>affection.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>slowly <\/span>approached <\/span>him <\/span>and <\/span>sat <\/span>beside <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>baby <\/span>was <\/span>still <\/span>lying <\/span>on <\/span>the <\/span>ground, <\/span>crying <\/span>loudly, <\/span>his <\/span>little <\/span>body <\/span>twisting <\/span>and <\/span>turning <\/span>with <\/span>every <\/span>new <\/span>wave <\/span>of <\/span>frustration. <\/span>His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>gently <\/span>reached <\/span>toward <\/span>him, <\/span>trying <\/span>to <\/span>get <\/span>his <\/span>attention.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>touched <\/span>his <\/span>shoulder.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then <\/span>she <\/span>leaned <\/span>closer <\/span>and <\/span>wrapped <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>arms <\/span>around <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

It <\/span>was <\/span>a <\/span>sweet, <\/span>tender <\/span>moment. <\/span>His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>seemed <\/span>to <\/span>be <\/span>saying, <\/span>in <\/span>her <\/span>own <\/span>monkey <\/span>way, <\/span>“Come <\/span>here, <\/span>little <\/span>brother. <\/span>Don’t <\/span>cry <\/span>so <\/span>much. <\/span>I’m <\/span>right <\/span>here <\/span>with <\/span>you.”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For <\/span>a <\/span>brief <\/span>moment, <\/span>the <\/span>baby <\/span>allowed <\/span>her <\/span>to <\/span>hold <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>sister <\/span>carefully <\/span>pulled <\/span>him <\/span>closer, <\/span>offering <\/span>him <\/span>a <\/span>warm <\/span>hug. <\/span>She <\/span>gently <\/span>groomed <\/span>him <\/span>and <\/span>stayed <\/span>beside <\/span>him, <\/span>hoping <\/span>her <\/span>affection <\/span>would <\/span>help <\/span>him <\/span>feel <\/span>safe <\/span>again.<\/span><\/p>\n

But <\/span>the <\/span>little <\/span>baby <\/span>was <\/span>not <\/span>ready <\/span>to <\/span>give <\/span>up <\/span>his <\/span>tantrum.<\/span><\/p>\n

As <\/span>soon <\/span>as <\/span>his <\/span>sister <\/span>tried <\/span>to <\/span>help <\/span>him <\/span>sit <\/span>up, <\/span>he <\/span>threw <\/span>himself <\/span>back <\/span>onto <\/span>the <\/span>ground!<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>started <\/span>crying <\/span>all <\/span>over <\/span>again.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>looked <\/span>at <\/span>him, <\/span>seemingly <\/span>confused <\/span>by <\/span>his <\/span>stubborn <\/span>behavior. <\/span>She <\/span>had <\/span>offered <\/span>him <\/span>a <\/span>hug, <\/span>tried <\/span>to <\/span>stay <\/span>close, <\/span>and <\/span>done <\/span>everything <\/span>she <\/span>could <\/span>think <\/span>of <\/span>to <\/span>make <\/span>him <\/span>feel <\/span>better. <\/span>Yet <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>brother <\/span>continued <\/span>to <\/span>scream <\/span>and <\/span>refuse <\/span>to <\/span>cooperate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Still, <\/span>she <\/span>did <\/span>not <\/span>immediately <\/span>give <\/span>up.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>moved <\/span>closer <\/span>again <\/span>and <\/span>tried <\/span>to <\/span>embrace <\/span>him. <\/span>The <\/span>baby <\/span>leaned <\/span>against <\/span>her <\/span>for <\/span>a <\/span>moment, <\/span>but <\/span>then <\/span>he <\/span>suddenly <\/span>turned <\/span>away, <\/span>flung <\/span>his <\/span>little <\/span>arms <\/span>outward, <\/span>and <\/span>began <\/span>kicking <\/span>the <\/span>ground <\/span>once <\/span>more.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>sister <\/span>patiently <\/span>followed <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

When <\/span>he <\/span>rolled <\/span>to <\/span>one <\/span>side, <\/span>she <\/span>moved <\/span>beside <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

When <\/span>he <\/span>stretched <\/span>his <\/span>arms <\/span>out, <\/span>she <\/span>reached <\/span>toward <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>when <\/span>he <\/span>cried <\/span>so <\/span>loudly <\/span>that <\/span>he <\/span>seemed <\/span>unable <\/span>to <\/span>hear <\/span>anything <\/span>around <\/span>him, <\/span>she <\/span>simply <\/span>stayed <\/span>close, <\/span>offering <\/span>him <\/span>the <\/span>comfort <\/span>he <\/span>was <\/span>refusing <\/span>to <\/span>accept.<\/span><\/p>\n

It <\/span>was <\/span>both <\/span>heartbreaking <\/span>and <\/span>a <\/span>little <\/span>funny <\/span>to <\/span>watch. <\/span>This <\/span>tiny <\/span>baby <\/span>had <\/span>such <\/span>enormous <\/span>feelings <\/span>inside <\/span>his <\/span>little <\/span>body, <\/span>and <\/span>he <\/span>seemed <\/span>convinced <\/span>that <\/span>the <\/span>only <\/span>way <\/span>to <\/span>solve <\/span>his <\/span>problem <\/span>was <\/span>to <\/span>cry <\/span>louder <\/span>than <\/span>everyone <\/span>else.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>big <\/span>sister, <\/span>meanwhile, <\/span>was <\/span>doing <\/span>her <\/span>very <\/span>best <\/span>to <\/span>be <\/span>the <\/span>patient <\/span>one.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>even <\/span>tried <\/span>gently <\/span>pulling <\/span>him <\/span>toward <\/span>her <\/span>again, <\/span>hoping <\/span>he <\/span>might <\/span>finally <\/span>settle <\/span>down <\/span>and <\/span>let <\/span>her <\/span>hold <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

But <\/span>no.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>little <\/span>baby <\/span>was <\/span>determined!<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>dropped <\/span>himself <\/span>onto <\/span>the <\/span>ground <\/span>once <\/span>more, <\/span>let <\/span>out <\/span>another <\/span>enormous <\/span>cry, <\/span>and <\/span>refused <\/span>to <\/span>rise.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>sister <\/span>paused <\/span>and <\/span>looked <\/span>around, <\/span>almost <\/span>as <\/span>if <\/span>she <\/span>were <\/span>wondering <\/span>what <\/span>else <\/span>she <\/span>could <\/span>possibly <\/span>do.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>was <\/span>not <\/span>his <\/span>mother, <\/span>after <\/span>all. <\/span>She <\/span>could <\/span>offer <\/span>a <\/span>hug <\/span>and <\/span>stay <\/span>by <\/span>his <\/span>side, <\/span>but <\/span>she <\/span>could <\/span>not <\/span>give <\/span>him <\/span>everything <\/span>he <\/span>wanted.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>what <\/span>he <\/span>wanted <\/span>most <\/span>was <\/span>Mom.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, <\/span>Mom <\/span>had <\/span>reached <\/span>the <\/span>end <\/span>of <\/span>her <\/span>patience.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>had <\/span>watched <\/span>the <\/span>tantrum <\/span>continue <\/span>for <\/span>quite <\/span>some <\/span>time. <\/span>She <\/span>had <\/span>tried <\/span>to <\/span>give <\/span>her <\/span>baby <\/span>space, <\/span>and <\/span>she <\/span>knew <\/span>that <\/span>his <\/span>sister <\/span>was <\/span>staying <\/span>nearby. <\/span>Although <\/span>she <\/span>might <\/span>have <\/span>felt <\/span>concerned <\/span>about <\/span>his <\/span>crying, <\/span>she <\/span>also <\/span>needed <\/span>to <\/span>continue <\/span>with <\/span>her <\/span>day.<\/span><\/p>\n

So <\/span>Mom <\/span>slowly <\/span>walked <\/span>farther <\/span>away.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>little <\/span>baby <\/span>noticed <\/span>immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>lifted <\/span>his <\/span>head, <\/span>saw <\/span>his <\/span>mother <\/span>moving <\/span>away, <\/span>and <\/span>began <\/span>crying <\/span>even <\/span>louder <\/span>than <\/span>before.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>little <\/span>hands <\/span>stretched <\/span>desperately <\/span>in <\/span>her <\/span>direction. <\/span>His <\/span>eyes <\/span>followed <\/span>her <\/span>every <\/span>movement, <\/span>and <\/span>his <\/span>cries <\/span>became <\/span>filled <\/span>with <\/span>a <\/span>new <\/span>sense <\/span>of <\/span>panic.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>seemed <\/span>unable <\/span>to <\/span>understand <\/span>why <\/span>his <\/span>mother <\/span>was <\/span>leaving <\/span>him <\/span>when <\/span>he <\/span>was <\/span>so <\/span>unhappy.<\/span><\/p>\n

To <\/span>him, <\/span>it <\/span>must <\/span>have <\/span>felt <\/span>as <\/span>though <\/span>nothing <\/span>was <\/span>going <\/span>his <\/span>way.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>had <\/span>cried <\/span>for <\/span>Mom.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>had <\/span>thrown <\/span>himself <\/span>onto <\/span>the <\/span>ground.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>had <\/span>refused <\/span>to <\/span>stand <\/span>up.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>now, <\/span>instead <\/span>of <\/span>coming <\/span>back <\/span>to <\/span>carry <\/span>him, <\/span>Mom <\/span>was <\/span>walking <\/span>away.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>baby <\/span>became <\/span>even <\/span>more <\/span>upset.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>rolled <\/span>over <\/span>again <\/span>and <\/span>continued <\/span>his <\/span>loud, <\/span>heartbreaking <\/span>cries. <\/span>His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>remained <\/span>close, <\/span>watching <\/span>him <\/span>with <\/span>a <\/span>mixture <\/span>of <\/span>concern <\/span>and <\/span>uncertainty. <\/span>She <\/span>gently <\/span>approached <\/span>him <\/span>one <\/span>more <\/span>time, <\/span>hoping <\/span>that <\/span>perhaps <\/span>he <\/span>would <\/span>finally <\/span>accept <\/span>her <\/span>company.<\/span><\/p>\n

She <\/span>sat <\/span>beside <\/span>him <\/span>and <\/span>reached <\/span>out.<\/span><\/p>\n

But <\/span>the <\/span>baby <\/span>continued <\/span>calling <\/span>for <\/span>his <\/span>mother.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>sister <\/span>could <\/span>only <\/span>stay <\/span>there, <\/span>offering <\/span>what <\/span>little <\/span>comfort <\/span>she <\/span>could.<\/span><\/p>\n

From <\/span>a <\/span>distance, <\/span>Mom <\/span>continued <\/span>moving <\/span>away. <\/span>She <\/span>was <\/span>tired, <\/span>and <\/span>she <\/span>had <\/span>decided <\/span>that <\/span>she <\/span>could <\/span>not <\/span>keep <\/span>responding <\/span>to <\/span>every <\/span>cry <\/span>and <\/span>every <\/span>demand. <\/span>She <\/span>needed <\/span>to <\/span>take <\/span>care <\/span>of <\/span>herself, <\/span>too.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>baby <\/span>watched <\/span>her <\/span>disappear <\/span>farther <\/span>into <\/span>the <\/span>group.<\/span><\/p>\n

For <\/span>a <\/span>little <\/span>while, <\/span>he <\/span>continued <\/span>crying <\/span>at <\/span>full <\/span>volume, <\/span>as <\/span>though <\/span>he <\/span>hoped <\/span>his <\/span>voice <\/span>would <\/span>somehow <\/span>bring <\/span>her <\/span>back.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>stayed <\/span>beside <\/span>him, <\/span>occasionally <\/span>reaching <\/span>out <\/span>to <\/span>touch <\/span>him. <\/span>Even <\/span>though <\/span>she <\/span>could <\/span>not <\/span>make <\/span>his <\/span>unhappiness <\/span>disappear, <\/span>she <\/span>did <\/span>not <\/span>immediately <\/span>leave <\/span>him <\/span>alone.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>scene <\/span>was <\/span>a <\/span>reminder <\/span>that <\/span>little <\/span>monkeys, <\/span>just <\/span>like <\/span>human <\/span>children, <\/span>can <\/span>have <\/span>enormous <\/span>emotions <\/span>that <\/span>they <\/span>do <\/span>not <\/span>yet <\/span>know <\/span>how <\/span>to <\/span>manage. <\/span>When <\/span>they <\/span>are <\/span>young, <\/span>tired, <\/span>frustrated, <\/span>or <\/span>seeking <\/span>reassurance, <\/span>their <\/span>feelings <\/span>can <\/span>become <\/span>overwhelming. <\/span>They <\/span>may <\/span>cry, <\/span>cling, <\/span>protest, <\/span>and <\/span>struggle <\/span>to <\/span>settle <\/span>down, <\/span>even <\/span>when <\/span>someone <\/span>is <\/span>trying <\/span>to <\/span>comfort <\/span>them.<\/span><\/p>\n

This <\/span>tiny <\/span>baby <\/span>was <\/span>not <\/span>able <\/span>to <\/span>explain <\/span>what <\/span>he <\/span>felt. <\/span>He <\/span>could <\/span>not <\/span>tell <\/span>his <\/span>mother <\/span>that <\/span>he <\/span>wanted <\/span>to <\/span>be <\/span>close <\/span>to <\/span>her, <\/span>that <\/span>he <\/span>missed <\/span>her <\/span>attention, <\/span>or <\/span>that <\/span>he <\/span>did <\/span>not <\/span>know <\/span>how <\/span>to <\/span>handle <\/span>his <\/span>frustration.<\/span><\/p>\n

All <\/span>he <\/span>could <\/span>do <\/span>was <\/span>cry.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>cry <\/span>he <\/span>did!<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>had <\/span>tried <\/span>her <\/span>best <\/span>to <\/span>give <\/span>him <\/span>the <\/span>warm <\/span>embrace <\/span>he <\/span>needed, <\/span>but <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>brother <\/span>was <\/span>still <\/span>too <\/span>overwhelmed <\/span>to <\/span>accept <\/span>it. <\/span>She <\/span>could <\/span>not <\/span>replace <\/span>Mom, <\/span>no <\/span>matter <\/span>how <\/span>gently <\/span>she <\/span>held <\/span>him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps, <\/span>after <\/span>a <\/span>while, <\/span>the <\/span>little <\/span>baby <\/span>would <\/span>grow <\/span>tired <\/span>of <\/span>his <\/span>own <\/span>tantrum. <\/span>Perhaps <\/span>he <\/span>would <\/span>finally <\/span>sit <\/span>up, <\/span>look <\/span>around, <\/span>and <\/span>realize <\/span>that <\/span>his <\/span>sister <\/span>was <\/span>still <\/span>there <\/span>beside <\/span>him. <\/span>Maybe <\/span>he <\/span>would <\/span>crawl <\/span>toward <\/span>her, <\/span>accept <\/span>a <\/span>little <\/span>grooming, <\/span>and <\/span>slowly <\/span>begin <\/span>to <\/span>calm <\/span>down.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>perhaps, <\/span>when <\/span>Mom <\/span>had <\/span>rested <\/span>and <\/span>finished <\/span>what <\/span>she <\/span>needed <\/span>to <\/span>do, <\/span>she <\/span>would <\/span>come <\/span>back <\/span>and <\/span>allow <\/span>her <\/span>little <\/span>one <\/span>to <\/span>settle <\/span>close <\/span>to <\/span>her <\/span>again.<\/span><\/p>\n

For <\/span>now, <\/span>however, <\/span>the <\/span>tiny <\/span>baby <\/span>remained <\/span>on <\/span>the <\/span>ground, <\/span>crying <\/span>out <\/span>his <\/span>little <\/span>heart, <\/span>while <\/span>his <\/span>patient <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>stayed <\/span>nearby.<\/span><\/p>\n

He <\/span>was <\/span>small, <\/span>stubborn, <\/span>emotional, <\/span>and <\/span>desperately <\/span>attached <\/span>to <\/span>his <\/span>mother.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>tantrum <\/span>might <\/span>have <\/span>seemed <\/span>dramatic <\/span>to <\/span>everyone <\/span>watching, <\/span>but <\/span>to <\/span>him, <\/span>his <\/span>little <\/span>world <\/span>felt <\/span>terribly <\/span>unfair.<\/span><\/p>\n

And <\/span>that <\/span>was <\/span>why <\/span>he <\/span>kept <\/span>crying <\/span>\u2014 <\/span>hoping <\/span>that <\/span>somehow, <\/span>somewhere, <\/span>his <\/span>mother <\/span>would <\/span>hear <\/span>him <\/span>and <\/span>come <\/span>back <\/span>to <\/span>give <\/span>him <\/span>the <\/span>comfort <\/span>he <\/span>wanted <\/span>so <\/span>badly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Poor <\/span>little <\/span>baby!<\/span><\/span> His <\/span>big <\/span>sister <\/span>tried <\/span>so <\/span>hard <\/span>to <\/span>help <\/span>him, <\/span>but <\/span>nothing <\/span>seemed <\/span>to <\/span>stop <\/span>his <\/span>enormous <\/span>tantrum. <\/span>Sometimes, <\/span>even <\/span>the <\/span>warmest <\/span>hug <\/span>cannot <\/span>immediately <\/span>soothe <\/span>a <\/span>little <\/span>heart <\/span>that <\/span>is <\/span>overwhelmed <\/span>with <\/span>emotion. <\/span>\u2764\ufe0f\ud83d\ude48<\/span><\/p>\n
