6m=irritant congestn: A 6m kid will respond to cigarette smoke, hair spray, cleaning fumes, perfume etc. The same way you do except it is worse for them. The irritant quality often makes kids snooty & they have a hard time getting the stuff sneezed out since they have minimal sneezing power. Often these irritants stay weeks inside their nose unless you wash them out with saline.

Yes: A six month of child is very dependent of those around him for love, attention, interaction, teaching, training, social contact, bonding, etc.Depriving an infant of those needs constitutes emotional abuse and could lead to serious permanent sequelae.
