Re: am I crazy (no, for real)?
I love the "it's not CIO if it's in the car" argument.
I was reading a couple different blogs debunking Dr. Sears and found this: (http://mainstreamparenting.wordpress.com/2008/01/02/does-ap-ensure-secure-attachment/)
and it made a great reference to an organization devoted to attachment theory, and that organization's non-endorsement of AP:
"Question: What is attachment parenting?
Answer: Information about "Attachment Parenting" can be found at other websites. Some adherents of the "Attachment Parenting" movement have very strong beliefs about how parenting should be done, for example, they think that skin-to-skin contact is essential for good attachment relationships to form, or that parents should behave in particular ways towards their children or that day care is bad for children. While IAN accepts that responsive and sensitive parenting is important for healthy social and emotional development, we shy away from advocating hard-and-fast general principles because we recognise that relationships between parents and children depend on the unique characteristics (temperament, lifestyle, social situation, support systems, quality of adult relationships, family size, culture, etc..) of individual relationships."

Those are great links Lindsay. Thanks.
This one is one of my favourites. I tried once to summarize my contempt for Dr. Sears but this does it far better than i could. Babies in Africa NEVER CRY! Hahahah.
