Oh gee. Thanks for giving me permission to do what I think works for me and my family.
Sharing mom's bed won't harm kids' social skills
Is anyone else annoyed by all these "experts" whose opinions fly in the face of what we think works for our own families? Bed sharing, for instance, has been frowned upon for the better part of the last decade (and dare I say it, LONGER than that?) and suddenly it's now okay. So many of us depend only on what experts say rather than think for ourselves. I say we need to cut that crap out and take everything with a grain of salt. Obviously, it is wise to listen to the counsel of other wise folks. However, it is better to think through that counsel and make up our own minds. Agreed?

and just think about how much money and time those researchers spent to tell us this.
ReplyDeleteI know! I think cutting these federally funded studies just might get us closer to balancing the budget!
ReplyDeleteI read 'The Family Bed' when my now 34 y/o son was two weeks old. Doesn't this sound wonderful?!? I gushed to my husband. NO! he replied.
ReplyDeleteFour kids and several years later he looked at me across the sea of bodies in our bed and said "I can't believe I ever thought I had a choice." lol
Just found your blog and I am really enjoying it!
That's awesome! My hubby ends up on the couch some nights. Sad, but true.
