Quotes from Jennifer Waldburger

Sleep is not a luxury; it is a necessity.

You may be thinking, What if she's emotionally damaged after crying? What if she never trusts me again? Your natural inclination is to just soothe her. And yet, you've been doing that—for weeks, months, or years—and that hasn't helped her sleep. What's more, the long-term effects of sleep deprivation are far worse than a few days of your child's frustration in learning a new skill or accepting a new limit.
