Oh, and I forgot to mentione something about the girl I mentioned in my post who said that I have an unhealthy relationship with my daughter. Not only does she not have any children of her own, she actually has a dog. A huge one (Rottweiler). He not only sleeps in their bed, but they also can't come and visit her DH's sister because they can't leave the dog behind. He can't go into a kennel, because they don't trust kennels and they can't find any friends who would look after the dog becasue one of the requirements to get the "honour" to doggy sit, is that you have to sleep with the dog.
So, I wonder, who has an unhealthy relationship here?
This happens so often, that the people who are really adamant about their opinion on how co-sleeping is bad for parents and children, are often the ones who co-sleep with their dogs.
I love dogs, I just think they shouldnt be treated better than our own children.
