If the link between parent and child is strong enough that kids can "catch" their parents' stress, it may stand to reason that babies crave the physical connection that comes with a cuddle. So does letting your baby cry it out cause harm?
I love that they quoted Dr. Ferber, saying "I never intended for parents to let their children cry it out". His intention was moderation. Teaching sleep skills, not abandoning the baby to.
To me, it seems like the article is well balanced.
