I don't have children, but I'm still interested in the Co sleeping debate that came up on the Feminism thread.

Is this something that is becoming more popular? Several forums that I frequent have ended up seeing it come up, and it is always fiercly debated, with some people saying it is more natural and produces happy, secure children, and others saying that it is something the mother does out of a selfish desire to keep her child close to her, and creates phobias in children.

I have no idea which side is right, and I'm not presenting any side as my own opinion, just parroting what I've read in other debates.

Rather than continue to drag the feminism thread off topic, I thought I'd start a new one and say that I'm really interested to hear more from Britjojo, and anyone else who has experience either way.
