[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have known plenty of sleep deprived babies and toddlers. It impacts everything, just like in adults. They’re moody, quick to get upset, have difficulty training. People that let their kids go for their first most formative years in that state are misguided and doing their kids a disservice. I pity those kids, same as you probably pity mine.[/quote]

Only those in daycare settings or home with lots of other kids.  If you let a baby and toddler sleep when and how they want, they aren’t sleep deprived.  [/quote]

DP.  This is a laughably ignorant statement. [/quote]

No, it isn’t.  When a baby can sleep on their own schedule they aren’t sleep deprived.  A baby cannot sleep on his/her own schedule in daycare. [/quote]

Since when can’t a baby sleep on their schedule in daycare? Any high quality daycare follows an infants sleep and feeding cues. They are not on a schedule. [/quote]

Oof, this is not how most daycares function. It's not realistic.

My child's natural schedule as a baby was to wake at 6am, nap from 8:30-10:30, eat and play, then nap from noon-1:30 or so, then eat and play, then another 15-30 minute nap before dinner. No daycare was going to accommodate that.[/quote]
