Why I Don't Teach Cry It Out

What is CIO? If you've been a parent for even just a week you've likely heard people say "just cry it out" right? It's no secret that the Cry It Out (CIO) Method is an extremely polarizing topic. Here at Little Z's I have always been known for my straightforward, "no fluff" content and that is something I developed after being a third and a fifth grade teacher. You will never find me telling parents to "just CIO" because....it's not a plan. In this video I explain my stance on the CIO/Extinction Method and why I do not teach this concept inside my sleep training courses.
