It is interesting that women seem to organically either not tolerate, or do not understand the need for tough measures in weaning.

So it happens: she tries gently day after day, month after month, then she didn’t have enough nerves — she yelled, threw a tantrum, something was decided, but it’s ugly, you can’t act like that regularly … Again she reminds, asks and persuades — and so on until the next scandal. Recipe: Learn to act tough. Without scandals — but tough. Warned — deprived. Warned — punished. No extra talk.
