I read that too and was similarly interested. When babysitting our niece who is <1 year old over night, I was able to handle the incessant crying really well and try to figure out how to alleviate it, or just ride it out while holding her. My wife had to remove herself because it was causing her a ton of distress from hearing the crying. I wonder if she was experiencing this empathic overarousal.
- auslegung 6y agoI remember spending lots of time with my nieces when they were newborns and infants, and their cries didn't bother me in the least. Now that I have my own, when my own children cry I most often want to punch a wall.
