Attachment Parenting: Parents in a company DETACHED

By Stephanie Lehane (January 2009)

There is a debate today on a centuries-old practice that was invented “Attachment Parenting”. First, understand the controversy, we must define the term Attachment Parenting. Attachment Parenting is a way of educating children is a guideline and not as a set of rules for parents to better understand the nonverbal communication that they by their children, babies and children. I do not agree with this concept of parenting is popular in the early twentieth century and for several generations transferred.

The three main methods of parental investment in relation to infants and young children are breastfeeding, babywearing, and co-sleeping. It seems that the mere mention of some or all of an abundance of tips and advice calls. In the face of all scientific knowledge as the best form of nutrition for infants breast-feeding women of previous generations often advise new mothers that bottle feeding. The same cast of well-meaning matriarch often tend to corrupt the idea that a baby can rally, even a child. And climb mothers who receive about co-sleeping with their children warnings increased risk for SIDS and children who vote in high school and continue breastfeeding in bed with mom and dad. But made for centuries, mothers instinct and the need to spoil, breastfed and co-slept with their babies. It was not until the advent of modern medicine and scientific progress, that mothers have started their innate sensitivity to professional advice, usually men, who say it would provide a new way in question, and improved to a healthy to raise a child.

THE CONTROVERSY

Nursing

All mammals nurse their young. So, why this form of nutrition and education of human babies and controversial, when and how it is attacked? To be sure, nursing mothers have an easier time avoiding the eyes and unwanted advice, their babies if they feed the public today as they have a decade ago to choose. But some stigma still exists as a return, have to convince the society that not only makes it a better place for babies to a more puritanical times when doctors worked and sterile milk developer that bottle feeding is modest for women. The first baby food market was invented in 1860 by Henri Nestlé in Switzerland and was made popular during the industrial revolution, when the women leave home to work in the factories. Bottle feeding was more popular during the Second World War with only 20-30% of women breastfeeding at all reached the United States. Many women choose bottle feeding their babies, as it is now more than a practical method, despite the American Academy of Pediatrics currently recommends that babies breastfeed exclusively for six months and continued breastfeeding up to age one year. However, breastfeeding is gaining popularity in the information age, where the parents are modern overwhelming confidence in its benefits for the baby and mother. A renowned pediatrician and father of eight children, Dr. William Sears, not only milk a good choice nutritionally, but the act of breast-feeding promotes the connection between mother and child. To succeed in breastfeeding, mothers should be able to interpret signals from the baby and confidence in their own instincts. Mothers are child-centered and focus on the needs of their child and how they react. In addition, Baby is able to use and interpret social cues from their mother and the confidence that their needs are met. A symbiotic relationship developed in which both parties to the ebb and breastfeeding society should come together. Breastfeeding is often parenthood as the first and most important aspect of the seizure.

Porting

Portage in all its forms goes back to the origins of the story. Anthropologists have ancient carvings depicting women carry their babies wrapped in a towel discovered while working, hiking, supports, and the older children. Cultural boundaries, many methods of carrying babies around and more than a revival of the recent popularity in the developed world. But at the same time as the Pacific began to sink, so the art and practice of the port, especially in the West, and for the same reasons. The mothers have started to her doctor’s advice, that would be the operation and implementation of their babies also lead to spoiled babies, said to heart. All kinds of inventions and devices such as strollers and playpens, began to emerge as places for women to bring their baby in order not to spoil it. It took to understand a few generations, that the opposite is true. Babies who do not receive sufficient tactile stimulation of the occupants are less organized, crying and in extreme experience “atrophy” means that they do not grow and develop as they should. Recently, an ad Motrin fired because of the reaction of a new generation of mothers and fathers carrying ads offended suggestion that the port is a new way, be something as modern, and fashion. These parents believe that the implementation of the babies close to them is not only useful but is a wonderful achievement, develop a relationship with their child. There are several types of port devices such as slings, bags, wraps and carriers and in some areas, parents can consultants to help them decide to see which style is best for them and their lifestyle.

Co-sleeping

Perhaps the most controversial of all the different areas of the plant parenthood. While it may seem strange, accustomed to Western parents because the concept of creating a separate nursery for baby bed, changing table, dresser and rocking chair. Historically, co-sleeping, or practice that infants, toddlers and / or children sleeping in the same bed with their parents was a common practice worldwide. Since the nineteenth century, this practice in popularity in North America, Europe and Australia as a separate sleeping area agreements have fallen affordable and desirable. Among the opponents of the reasons for co-sleeping separate bedrooms include the possibility that could a parent turn crush and or suffocated accidentally her baby at increased risk for SIDS, and the inability of older infants and children to become independent and alone . sleep However, recent research has shown significant benefits for babies and parents to sleep cooperation. Studies have shown that co-sleeping is actually the risk of sudden death by mirroring breathing mothers and babies sleep pattern cycle. Indeed, a major factor in SIDS deaths of babies inability to regulate their breathing, making it breathe “to forget”. In addition, babies in the bed of the family experience shorter and less deep sleep states. This is important because the extended states of deep sleep, such as occur after prolonged or cry to sleep alone might another major cause of SIDS are. (Note: co-sleeping is not recommended if the parents smoke or consume alcohol, drugs, or who are obese). But the number one benefit of the promoters are co-sleeping is more sleep for all. The bed of the family can be especially useful for breastfeeding mothers who simply can take up the breastfeeding mother and child drift peacefully back to sleep. These mothers remember that there is no awaking to cries of a baby hungry, anxious and heated alone, the adrenalin for all the bottles and the parents try to stay awake to feed itself awake during the return to a cold sheet.

It seems that modern parents are beginning to accept the wisdom of old times. As communities decline in favor of close loose networks, individuals are more and more connected alone. The paradox of today’s society is that it is both easier and harder than ever before, a relative success. There is more information available to parents at no other time in history. However, information has a price: If untreated, it can take the place of instinct. Ultimately, the best approach is for parents to read to understand, to do research and parenting methods available, and trust themselves and their babies, which is best.
