controlled crying study

[LG]

Has anyone seen this?AdelaideNow... SA study to settle battle of cry babies debate sounds like she is trying to prove CC isn't harmful to me. Surely a 12 month study isn't going to prove that. I know my 3yo at 2 was still very clingy. It wasn't until he was developmentally ready (somewhere between 2 and 3 years for him) that he started going off to play and make friends and discover the world feeling safe and secure that i was around should he need me. My 9mth old co-sleeps and i don't see anything different happening anytime soon!! I have never used self settling techniques on either boys. At 2, my eldest son decided it would be fun to have his own bed and quilt covers he chose etc. And we never have bedtime dramas because bed and sleep have always been a "good happy" place.
