Amzy doesnt like to be held by her mother?


Why doesn't Amzy like to be held by her mother? I realize that she's taken care of during the day by a nanny, but aside from the fact that no one seems to like this woman (nor do I) there are so many women who rely on alternative forms of daycare for their children because they have to work. The reason people seem to criticize this woman is that she's actually very successful at her business. If she were a struggling single mom who had to leave her daughter with a neighbor she paid a little to care for her daily then no one would be so critical of the fact that she had to work. That issue is a totally different issue, whether she has to work or not and whether or not women who don't have to work for financial reasons should work. Let's face it, we're damned if we do and damned if we don't. But that's not what I'm talking about. She works and someone else cares for her child during the day just like so many other women have to do.

So, given that many women have other people care for their children during the day while they work, why is it that Amzy would rather have any other person in the world hold her than her own mother? Even when the nanny isn't there she'd rather have her mother's friend or her father hold her. Yet, we see that Amzy sleeps with her mother every single night. They seem just fine lying in bed together.

Would you be comfortable on a skeleton hip and resting against bolt-ons? I've asked my husband a few times through the years if he likes her body. He always thinks she looks anorexic in her clothes.

All good points. Speaking of her hips, I noticed her legs in the intro. They looked really freaky!

And Emily even said that her store was #1. It's not a wonder that poor Amzie prefers other women to hold her. Anyway, Emily doesn't seem like a very "warm" person to begin with. She's pretty much a stranger to her own daughter, which is sad.

It's all good and fine that she's a successful business woman, but a child should take precedent over that. Look at Victoria Beckham - she's got a lot going on, but you always see her with her kids; and she's a LOT more famous than Emily. Emily's got a screwed up way of thinking if she feels she needs to neglect her own child just to have a successful business.

I have no problem with anyone working outside the home whether they have to (financially) or not. But I have a feeling her nanny takes care of Amzy while she's also at home. She doesn't appear to be a very warm person and it's possible Amzy senses that.

I think she has Amzy sleep with them to avoid sex with her husband.
