A California family's parenting hack to calm their rear-facing baby in the car involves taking an extreme close-up smiling photo of mom, blowing it up, and placing it on the backseat for the baby to see. This method worked due to the baby feeling a strong connection to the caregiver during the 1 to 5-month stage, as per the Separation Individuation theory by Margaret Mahler. The baby was shown smiling and cooing at the cutout, proving the effectiveness of this creative solution.
