The Cry It Out Controversy Vs The Case For Cuddles

Postpartum from an Evolutionary, Biological & Neurologically Developmental Standpoint.

Join author Kirsty Bennett for an evening exploring the fascinating science behind one of the most hotly contested topics families wrestle with: Cry-it-out.

Cry-it-out sleep training methods are often seen as a rite of passage families must undergo – but why? Where did these ideas come from? What are the risks? What does the science say?

Join us as we unravel the complexities behind the burning question – To Cry or Not To Cry?
