I had great hope -- sleep !!!!!!But it is just yet another book advocating abuse of the child for the ease of the parent.Yes, I want sleep. NO I will not sacfice my baby's secure attachment to me, and faith in me and the world to get it.crying it out is abuse pure and simply.Don't waest your time and money -- if you think this is how to raise a child, do yourfelf and the child a favor and giv the child to someone who will care.
