What is so wrong attachment parenting?
Posted on 26. Sep, 2010 by Young Parents Guide.
Isn’t that the best way to build bonds with your children?
October Mommy: http://www.attachmentparenting.org/
Attachment parenting is the best way to bond. It develops strong trust between parent to child and then you gently instruct your children rather than give illogical, unnatural consequences (such as time out, spanking, grounding, etc). It’s the most effective form of parenting out there.

Attachment parenting question?
Posted on 24. Sep, 2010 by Young Parents Guide.
For mommies who attachment parent, do you think that generally all babies need attachment parenting? Just judging off a response to a debate. I wanted to see if some other attachment parenting mommies though this way too.
The response basically was that all babies thrive best from attachment parenting. I have nothing against it, it just doesn’t work for my girls. I just wanted to know if it’s assumed my some of you guys that is the best way for all babies to thrive.
I hope that made sense. I just wanted more opinions.
Lol, yes MaMaBear-I am just not a cosleeping/baby wearing APer

Everything I have read about attachment parenting involves baby wearing and cosleeping, neither of which my daughters have taken well to
See, I was under the impression that the two biggest parts of AP were baby wearing and co sleeping. Neither of which I do. And I am guilty of letting my baby scream while tending to my other child (almost impossible to avoid)
SORRY! I was on the phone when I typed that and we were talking about you two, lol. MaMaBeaN!

what is attachment parenting?
Posted on 21. Sep, 2010 by Young Parents Guide.
I know this has been asked before, but I’m curious what the current crop of moms have to say. I suddenly wonder if having my son spend time lying down under his mirror and with his favorite toys is a "no go" with attachment parenting advocates. Is this realistic? You don’t ever put down the baby unless they are alseep? I’d love to hear someone explain this! (my son is 4 months)

does anyone here know about attachment parenting?
Posted on 09. Sep, 2010 by Young Parents Guide.
if so what do you know and what do you think of it?
the reason i ask is because i would like to know what other people think of it (if they’ve even looked at it as an option).
i just have to tell everyone that i will be leaving this question to be voted on to prove how much americans don’t agree with attachment parenting but rootofnowt is right. it is the right thing to raise your children in a loving and caring environment. and it doesn’t turn them in to wussies but it also doesn’t turn them into sociopaths.

I without realising it automatically tend toward attachment parenting while my Husband & his Mother (who will be watching my baby) are more the Ferber type of parents. How can I get a happy medium? And keep my Baby happy?
BTW: she is 1 month. Too youg to even be having this convo.
Thanks!
Q ball, thanks for the scriptures. Yes I too have read the Bible cover to cover.

Benefits of attachment parenting you've noticed?
Posted on 17. Aug, 2010 by Young Parents Guide.
I have been reading with fascination on the subject of attachment parenting. I raised my 6-year old in this manner somewhat, without realizing there was a term for it, and I’m enjoying it with my new baby. For those of you with older children raised with this method, can you tell me what benefits/differences you’ve noticed in your kids, compared to other kids whose parents did not use this method?
