    Okay, sure, if we were all rich we might go for that. Amazingly, we ALL need that much sleep.

      Haha funny how that works.
      Not to mention will any human being be able to keep their eyes on a baby every single minute? Still unsafe. But someone did say it was staged. I'm hoping that's the case.

        When I was employed with Head Start, I was straight up told "Treat all families as if they have only an 8th grade education"

        It was condescending and so unfair but it was the general attitude of all HS staff.
        I work in early head start, with all black kids, WE were told to treat our parents like they had a 5th grade education... Im also the "token white girl" (as my coworkers call me). I am the diversity!
        Oh and the new thing, our kids are not allowed to sleep on their stomachs, even if they can roll over. Wanna explain to me why the parent whos a NURSE lets her premie (born 12 weeks early) sleep on his stomach and tells me that him spitting up milk out his nose and mouth in his sleep is NORMAL! hes doing this 3-4 times a day

          Sounds like he needs to see a gaastro doctor

            Doesn't matter who is watching the child.

            Unsafe sleep is dangerous. period.

              Before I was a provider my 12 week old preemie son was sleeping on his provider's water bed. On his stomach. He's in his thirties now. I guess my point is not all babies will suffer ill fates from bad sleep practices. Better to be safe than sorry which is the same reason I cut up grapes for toddlers.
