Not like there aren't psychologists writing books and doing studies that completely oppose those of which you believe in.
Thanks for you opinon on the issue, finally! However I'm not quite understanding. Do you mean I was wrong for going out to get my nephew, who was being chastised for waking up before his mom could get enough sleep? Or was I wrong for what was said?
Well since you did step in, I think its good that you said something. And you're right, at such a young age its better to step in when crying occurs. I didn't want you to think that my first post applied directly to this case...as I said there is a point where "rescuing" the child is harmful rather than helpful. Obviously when the child is this young it won't hurt him. I was making more of a general statement as I don't know how old he is.
