Keep in mind that the research around this is very poor. It's in the realm of things where flipping a coin might be better.

  Most of it is, but not all of it. My own conclusion (which is not the one I wanted to reach, believe me) was that when you throw out all the bad research, the evidence, while not conclusive, does clearly point more in one direction than the other.

    Could you show such a research? Because you have been saying it all around the thread, some proof would be handy.

      The major studies that have been done are fairly easy to find with some google investigation. I looked at them all over a year ago and formed my conclusions. I unfortunately didn't keep around a list of links to post in debates on internet forums. This post mentions a few of the main ones (I'm not vouching for the post's content): https://www.laleche.org.uk/letting-babies-cry-facts-behind-studies/ https://www.laleche.org.uk/letting-babies-cry-facts-behind-s...
