On Crying-It-Out As A Training Method

Someone recently asked me, "Do you let her cry?"  That got me to reflecting on my parenting style, and I realized why my answer is "Not if I can help it." It won't be long before Juna finds out that the world is sometimes an unsafe, unkind, unfriendly, unpredictable, unhappy place where some are bent on destruction and hate.  So, for the brief time that I have this power to make Juna's world a safe, kind, gentle, loving and happy place, I will do everything in my power to do so.  I WILL NOT be part of the cause of her learning these truths, and when she does, she will know that she has a safe haven that she can come home to.
