Article (from Sunday's paper) FYI. It starts like this:
IT'S an issue that exhausts and divides every parent of a newborn baby: how do you get your child to sleep?
The two most trusted advice centres, Tresillian and Karitane, have quietly and controversially abandoned their policy of allowing a child to cry and learn to self-settle, instead advising parents to move into their baby's bedroom.
And ends like this:
The study's co-author, Dr Stephen Matthey, said controlled crying and sleeping in a child's room were equally effective.
Neither negatively impacted on the emotional health of the child, he said.
