I agree. But I wonder what the end of the journey of attachment parenting is, anyways?

OH the other thing I wanted to say was that I didn't feel like he thought it appropriate to "tell moms how to mother." He says over and over again that moms and parents need to listen to their own intuition (which, I believe, is usually telling them to pick their babies up when they cry, feed them, cuddle them, love them). I don't particularly like the idea of a man telling me how to be a mom either! But he sure has analyzed and observed more babies than me.

I agree. I wouldn't buy any more books by him though. I feel that he's profited enough at this point...
