    In my SEA culture, parents sleep with their babies, meaning a crying baby will immediately find a teat to suckle on while the mum sleeps on.

    We also are very physical with our babies, hugging and picking them up immediately when they cry. Every able bodied adult and even older siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles will also do this for you. Our babies grow up well adjusted and have good emotional attachment with their parents and extended family.

      lol I don’t think you intended it be but literally the second comment on the post is shaming parents which is what this article is discussing.
