How Did Putting Your Kid In A Crib Become Controversial, Anyway?
-
The other day, we had a story about a woman charged a second time with rolling over and crushing her infant to death while "co-sleeping." And doctors are almost unanimous in saying that sharing your bed with your infant is a dangerous thing. But this Harvard couple insists, in a book and in this column, that it's OK and even beneficial to sleep next to your infant child, because they do it in other cultures. They claim that the danger of rollover deaths is "imaginary." But we've seen it happen, so... who do you think is right, the doctors or these folks? Would you take that chance? (Los Angeles Times)
