What infants need is the opportunity and time to take in and figure out the world around them.

Much harm has been done in the name of love, but no harm can be done in the name of respect.

I wish children could grow according to their natural pace: sleep when sleepy, wake up when rested, eat when hungry, cry when upset, play and explore without being unnecessarily interrupted; in other words, be allowed to grow and blossom as each was meant to.

Sadness, discomfort, frustration -- they are all valid human emotions. Why would we want to suppress them?

If infants are ready to do something, they will do it. In fact, when they are ready, they have to do it.

The more we do, the busier we are, the less we really pay attention.
