Answer 1

HI John, not the adequate answer:

"She liked the a child physical and intellectual development but could do without the crying fits and neediness"

Could do without: le sobraban por que le molestaba

In Spanish we use: Puedo pasar sin....

I could do without all those homework questions... ()

Podría pasar perfectamente sin todas esas....
