Review title: Disappointing, made things worse.
Product review: We had a couple of recommendations for this book since my 2 year old son has never slept all night and will only fall asleep by nursing him or driving him around. This book set us back - way back. Before trying this "cry it out" method, I had my son almost completely weened from nursing. I approached the method open minded and tried it the way he recommends. Now my son is clingy and wants to be nursed constanly, he is scared to death of his crib and won't even go into his bedroom. He has never been so insecure. We feel as though we have broken his little spirit. The scientifics on why sleep is necessary makes perfect sense, however, the method is too cruel for us. The author does contradict himself over and over as stated in other reviews. I'll keep searching for a gentler approach to our problem as I do not believe letting a child cry himslef to pure exhaustion is the way to go.
