Stripping the Layers of Advice

I recently came across a parenting message board from a fairly prestigious college in California, USA. I had never visited the site before, and I was very interested to see how such an intellectual group of people addressed the parenting topic of sleep. The advice was fair. It was supportive, friendly, educated, and it was very much Attachment Parenting (AP). But as I read on, I became overwhelmed by the amount of input on the subject. I couldn’t help but think to myself, “All of this advice is over-the-top. What ever happened to intuition?” Sleep Editor Carrie Kerr continues on The Attached Family online magazine at Stripping the Layers of Advice.
