Ferberizing

We all know that the best way to let go of hang-ups such as emotional stress inside of us can be done through crying. For children, parents would not want to see them cry for the reason that their emotional burden is something their kids should not be tied up with.

Apparently, this issue of allowing kids to cry or called Ferberizing by most is being criticized on whether it is really helping kids sleep better or another form of child abuse. Now regardless of which standpoint you are taking, parenting and resolving the sleep issue is certainly something up in the air for debate and discussion.

What do you think about “cry it out” sleep training? Of our readers, so far “it’s child abuse” and “it’s a miracle” are neck-and-neck at about 25% each (with another 50% torn). When you answer, say what generation you’re from. Our working thesis: Boomers were totally fine with letting their kids figure out how to self-soothe; Gen-Xers, not so much.
