New research showing a link between genetic predispositions to insomnia and sleep problems among children serves as a reminder that we need to rethink the way parents are instructed, judged and shamed for parenting practices, writes Kara Alaimo.
For years, experts and self-anointed experts like momfluencers have been telling parents like me that following certain practices would get our kids to put themselves to sleep and sleep through the night. Now, a new study suggests the reason some kids don’t sleep well is because they’re genetically predisposed to insomnia — not because their moms can’t get sleep training right.
It’s that there isn’t a right way to parent all kids because every one is different. So, when we see a momfluencer share a TikTok with the tips that help her get her kid magically to sleep, what she’s sharing is what works for her child in the context of her family’s circumstances. That’s often quite different from what will work for others. Yet so many moms are left feeling like they can’t cut it if other people’s recipes don’t work for them.
