AUDIO: Dr. Marty Klein - How Can I Learn To Turn Off My Child's Baby Monitor?
No sex or marriage question is too embarrassing because it’s time to ask EmpowHer’s sexuality expert Dr. Marty Klein, anything.
Well, here is a few parenting questions now. “Dear Dr. Klein, we have a 5-year-old and my husband wants to turn off the baby monitor after all these years. I just can’t do it; I get nervous. I know I am being foolish, but I just can’t relax if I don’t know what our son is doing or how he is breathing or sleeping. What should we do?”
Dr. Marty Klein:
Oh, dear. Dr. Klein says that if the baby monitor is still on when the kid is 5, when are you going to turn it off? I mean, you are going to send it with him to college and say, “Listen, I want you to put this on when you go to sleep at college.” No seriously, this is actually a serious issue, and I really sympathize with any parent who fears for the safety of their child. I mean, what could be more serious than being concerned about your child’s safety?
On the other hand, on the other hand, being a parent requires nerves of steel.
