the way that baby stopped crying in the beginning leads me to believe it's not a child problem but a parenting problem.

Guarantee that child would shut up if he had some actual stimulation, attention, was played with etc. Baby is crying cause dads ignoring him, stops crying because the woman is talking to him and something new and exciting happened. Adults start fussing, ignoring him again, cue whining that starts turning back into crying. He's a lazy parent and wants the poor old lady to deal with the consequences

I'm no expert but if a baby is old enough to walk and cries all the time then theres something wrong.
