Thoughts on sleep training babies? #asknostr

Anthropologically CIO makes little sense.

Training should be: bonding with your baby and providing comfort and helping them master the skill of sleep. (Sontjere are lots of things youncan do). CIO alters their brain patterning to remove expectation of parental calming. πŸ€”

Fiat.

Lower your time preference.

Do a deep dive on it.

Remember, "research" also told us that: low fat was good, meat was bad, grains were good, the school system is good, high taxes are required for roads and the million other things.

Humans have raised babies for eons. We are pre-wired for what to do.

Good luck.

Cry it out never seemed appropriate for a little baby, agreed.

Challenging ideas for you! πŸ’­πŸ’‘

I stumbled on a website called futurist.com --- it's a vanity project of some guy who is a speaker about, clutches pearls, THE FUTURE... (The links are below).

I wasn't enthralled but I watch and read a bit and found myself challenged. Not to learn new things, but to hear different perspectives.

I immediately wanted to reject their hypothesis' but remembered the power of hearing different perspectives to see through cognitive blindspots.

In college my neighbour had a newspaper delivered that was of the complete opposite political side as myself at the time. He'd be out of the country a lot and the papers would pile up so I'd grab them for him. I became engrossed in reading it. Fascinating how there was a complete other side to how I saw the world. Since then I've enjoyed hearing weird ideas, new ideas, fringe ideas. I think it's partly what got me into Bitcoin.

So here are these videos. I didn't like everything nor agree with many things presented, but they made me think, reconsider and build out some worldview.

And what a 🀯 to think about the things we touch now daily, versus fifty years ago. 🫠
