So for its foes, a book that touts co-sleeping, baby wearing, and nursing on demand well into the toddler years may not top your escape or even self-help reading.
But Mayim Bialik, known to millions for her lead role in the 1990s NBC sitcom “Blossom” and now as Amy Farrah Fowler on “The Big Bang Theory,” has penned a guide that is actually quite palatable for even the most detached parent.
Beyond the Sling: A Real-Life Guide to Raising Confident, Loving Children the Attachment Parenting Way (Touchstone / Simon & Schuster, $23.99) hit bookstores this week and has drawn support (and an introduction) from attachment gurus such as Dr. Jay Gordon and Dr. William Sears. The hardback will find an eager audience with those curious or supportive of this unique parenting style as well as those wondering how the quirky and charming “C.C. Bloom” (the young Bette Midler) of 1988’s Beaches is now raising her own kids.
