I read this article the other day and I must say I am quite impressed that
the author did not use this as an opportunity to slam co-sleeping, but
instead to point out the dangers of co-sleeping while on a couch or after
drinking, both of which we know are dangerous. I would have loved a little
blurb about safe co-sleeping habits at the bottom, but at least there was no
attach where it wasn't warranted.
