 The Attachment Parenting Book:
A Commonsense
Guide to Understanding and Nurturing Your Baby
by William and Martha Sears
Book
Description
Is it
OK to sleep with your newborn baby? How old is too old for
breastfeeding? These questions and more are answered in this
latest addition to the Sears Parenting Library. Attachment
Parenting encourages early, strong, and sustained attention
to the new baby's needs and this book outlines the steps that
will create the most lasting bonds between parents and their
children. Practical and inspirational, this book, the heart
of the Sears' parenting creed, is a necessity for every new
parents' bookshelf.
Attachment
parenting is a highly intuitive, high-touch style of parenting
that encourages a strong early attachment, and advocates consistent
parental responsiveness to babies' dependency needs. Rather
than give parents a strict set of rules about when to breastfeed
or when to respond to a cry, The Sears' approach encourages
parents to learn and work with their baby's particular cues.
Their book focuses on the benefits of attachment parenting
for both parent and child, and explains how attachment parenting
improves development, makes discipline easier, and even promotes
independence. There is further information on attachment parenting
for working parents and on weaning your child from attachment
parenting, as well as scientific research that explains why
attachment parenting works.
