Parents struggle from the moment their babies are born to understand them. We listen intently to hear the different cries--the I'm-hungry cry; the I-want-you-to-hold-me cry; the I-refuse-to-admit-I'm-tired cry; and the far too common I-just-want-my-way cry. The discerning parent learns to tell the difference in these cries. Each has a differed tone and different facial expressions.
