Is "Cry It Out" The Tip Of A Dangerous Parenting Iceberg? - Raised Good
Cry It Out is sold to parents as a tool to teach babies to sleep. But it's a dangerous practice which disconnects us from our kids. There is a better way.

Look at the differences between a typical younger child’s hand (left) and a typical older child's hand (right). I have parents asking regularly why their preschool aged child isn’t able to write yet. This is why! Their hands (and brains) are still developing and are not fully formed. So what should they be doing to support this? PLAY!! Playdough, colouring, cutting, gluing, playing outside, digging in dirt, sensory play, dress up play, science experiments, beading, puzzles, throwing balls, etc. All of these things help their hands develop. When they are physically ready to write, they will! No need to rush them, they will show you when they are ready!
