I am pleased to write that I Un-Ezzoed and Un-Whispered 4 mothers this past week. Just in casual conversation I heard the key words, "schedule," "taking off the breast before asleep," etc. and I enlightened the mothers about what they were really doing to their little ones. One family had Dad at home and I invited him up to hear my take on the programs. The Babywise book had been highly recommended by colleagues at work. After I told him what I know and left the home, Dad got on the internet and found a lot about the program. After reading for a couple of hours he threw the book into the trash. That I was able to clear up their misconceptions is the good news. That they were only four out of the many families that I *don't* see is the on-going bad news. All four of these couples were very grateful for my sharing my knowledge about the programs. Jan, I like your names--misspellings-- for the books.
