Real Men Rock!

Rob Salisbury with Mike, Ty and Maya

Please don’t shake them - you might break them!

Hi! This is Rob Salisbury, proud father of Mike, Maya, and 7 month old Ty. Caring for a baby or young child is hard work. A multiple of kids can make it harder. It means long hours and little sleep. Some babies cry a lot. If you‛re getting frustrated, take a break. Ask someone you trust to relieve you for a while, or put the baby in a crib or playpen for a few minutes. You‛re the adult, get control, don‛t lose your cool.

If you need immediate help, call 1-800-4-A-CHILD For information, call CAPA at (517)437-3100 Child Abuse Prevention & Awareness of Hillsdale County email: capahillsdale@sbcglobal.net www.capahillsdale.net
