There is a huge movement these days in my community to make parents aware
of
how dangerous co-sleeping is. Apparantly there is a larger than usual
number
of babies suffocating from being in bed with their parents. Because of
this,
there are alot of outraged parents saying things like, "How could loving
parents endanger their precious baby by sleeping with it?". Even if the
mom
accidentally fell asleep while nursing, they are still blaming her!(and
that's the most recent occurence, which is in the news today, and our news
site allows comments) There was a whole news conference about the
"dangers"
of co-sleeping.
The cause of death everytime is blamed on co-sleeping. I know not everyone
believes it's ok to sleep with the baby, but honestly, do people really
believe it makes one a horrible parent for doing so?
