i must point out that just because the app has decided to not approve of
co-sleeping, so what? do we have a document for every thing we discuss or
mention to parents, which we have them sign? the aap endorses breastfeeding,
and many, many of its members do not carry out the intentions of the aap, any
of them seem to be worried about it? i bet if we went back and combed through
all the publications of the aap, the list of contradictions would be endless.
if i advise someone that co-sleeping, i am drawing on the advice of
authorities such as dr. sears and dr. mckenna (not to mention our own experts
with more initials than me). when i look at "evidence" for something, i don't
just say, oh, it's the aap, they're right and i will follow their guidelines.
i think for myself. what a novel idea.
