Cribsheet

A Data-Driven Guide to Better, More Relaxed Parenting, from Birth to Preschool
Book • 2019
In 'Cribsheet', Emily Oster applies her economic perspective to the challenges of early parenting.

The book debunks myths and conventional wisdom by analyzing research and scientific studies on various parenting issues such as breastfeeding, circumcision, sleep training, and childcare.

Oster emphasizes that there is often no single 'right' answer and that decisions should be based on a combination of data and what works best for each family's unique circumstances.

The book aims to empower parents with a decision framework, helping them navigate the complexities of parenting with a calm and informed approach.
