monamiestephie 's review for:
I loved the first book in this series, but this book misses a few marks. As other have pointed out it stays mired in “lack of evidence/research/quality data, so do what works for your family.” It also is very targeted to a demographic with a great deal of disposable wealth and privilege. The idea that a full time nanny is attainable for most Americans is utterly false. The dismissal of programs like head start and focus on preschool philosophy centered on the three most expensive options reveals how deep the disconnect between the author’s own biases and the experience of the average parent in America. It was also very sad to see recommendations overriding safe sleep advice from national health organizations while completely ignoring the importance of other early safety information such as securing furniture and evaluating toys for compliance with Consumer safety standards. The dismissal of the deaths of children from unsafe sleep based on the idea of “well, if it makes you cranky then you’re a worse parent, so just do what you want” is not okay.
