I'm really worried about my daughter. She is being rejected by her little boy. He is 1 year old and for some time he only wants daddy. When daddy is at work little grandson is fine but the minute daddy comes home he completely rejects his mummy. Consequently she is feeling terrible. I know that this can happen. I've read some forums and is is quite common but I don't know how to help her. She feels like putting him into nursery and going back to work full time when the intention was to work 3 days with me looking after him. I'm so worried about her as she has not been great about going back to work, but needs must. She had a difficult pregnancy but loved her little boy on site and is a brilliant mummy. Any one got any ideas what I can do to help her.

Do nothing. He is far to young to think "I love Daddy more then Mummy " . He doesn't see Daddy so much so he is getting as much time with his father as he can. My son is a stay at home father, my DIL works long hours and often doesn't get home in time to see their girls. The four year old becomes almost clingy with her mother over the weekend for this reason. It hasn't obscured to anyone to think she prefers one parent to another.
