Summary: please do research before following this book's methods
Comment: Talk to your child's doctor and do some research before buying this book. Its advice is not in keeping with current research on childhood development. In some cases children have even been admitted to the hospital because their parents followed the advice in these books. The American Academy of Pediatrics is investigating this book.

Summary: ezzo is NOT qualified, he's a BAD parent & zealot!
Comment: before you even consider this book, i advise you to do some research. there's a reason this book is so controversial. it's DANGEROUS, and the techniques in this book teach parents to detach from their children. there are lots of links to tons of information about ezzo an his practices.
one of the things you will learn if you research this topic is that gary ezzo is NOT a doctor, nor an "expert" in any way shape or form...he is NOT qualified to be giving parenting advice, particularly advice which concerns infant feeding. his only credentials involve theology (religious), NOT children.
it is also interesting to note that he has been excommunicated from the last several churches he was a member of, due to many things, not the least of which is his abrasive, dishonest, and rude personality and practices. (is that someone you should be taking parenting advice from?)
you should also know that the original publisher of this book has stopped publishing it due to the controversy surrounding it. they did research on the practices in the book and found too many babies suffering from "failure to thrive" after their parents used his techniques.
for parents who swear by ezzo's methods...doesn't it concern you in the least that most official experts in the fields of child development and infant care have warned against this book and practices? the american academy of pediatrics are even against it! there are many experts that have even warned that the "preparation for parenting" classes (the christian version of the book that are unfortunately taught in parenting classes at many churches) are verging on cult-like because of the way they teach parents to not share info about the class with outsiders, even pediatricians! and that this way is the ONLY way to raise "godlike" children. (they flat out tell you that if you don't follow these practices you will have brats...and if you have problems with your kids its because you are not following the techniques properly)
it is time our culture stopped listening to the unqualified "experts" and started listening to our hearts! there's a reason you feel bad when you practice the techniques in this book! your heart and your child are trying to tell you this is wrong...you're just not listening!
PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!

Summary: On Becoming Babywise
Comment: As a mother of twins I read many books to help my children sleep through the night. I found some of Ezzo's suggestions helpful in getting through a difficult situation. As a parent you read alot of information and it is up to you as a parent to evaluate and use what material will work for you. As with all books I have read on parenting I did not agree with everything but I was able to take from the reading suggestions that would work for me. My twins are 13 weeks old and both are sleeping at least 6 hours through the night. They were born at 3 1/2 and 4 pounds and now they are 11 and 13 pounds. Thank you Mr. Ezzo for your help.
