Experts revisit the debate over cry-it-out sleep training

Original: Debunking the cry~it~out method

James Madison University has published a piece debunking the cry-it-out method of infant sleep training, which involves letting babies cry themselves to sleep without immediate parental comfort. The discussion feeds a long-running debate among parents and child development specialists over whether the practice harms attachment or is a safe, effective way to establish healthy sleep habits.

Why now: Parenting communities continually contest sleep training advice, and new expert commentary reignites that debate.
