Anon: I am an entrepreneur mom, have a once a life opportunity to spend 6 days with Richard Branson in his private island. However, I am torn between staying my 9 months old infant and going. He will be 12 months if I go. I am the primary caretaker, but I do have 2 nannies who take care of him 35hrs a week. Dad has never been alone with him for over an hr per week. I am still breastfeeding but will stop around that time. Plan is for nannies to take over and take care of him 10 hrs and dad will take over at night. However, I am really concern about lengthy separation on his emotional development based on this article - lucydanielscenter.org/page/lengthy-separations-between-child-and-parent. I need advises, thoughts and more clinical studies on separation on a 1 year old. Thanks in advance!
