Gary Ezzo and Robert Bucknam, M.D. On Becoming Babywise
This book is a secular take on the fundamentalist view that
babies are evil manipulative creatures. It advocates a feeding
schedule that has
no basis in lactation physiology, and encourages parents
to ignore babies' cries so as to break their spirits. So far
out of the mainstream that it has even been condemned by other
Christian
organizations, including
the church where the program originated. |
