Tribulations of the rich and famous

I absolutely love the New York Times. They are a never-ending source of articles like this, wherein Hollywood moguls and Upper East Side executives ponder the vexed question of how to get your child to sleep in his or her own bed. The parents consult sleep experts, who recommend reward systems, parents sitting farther and farther away each night, and a proxy for the little bundle of joy to clutch. At no point in the article is the phrase "because I said so" uttered. One woman even justifies the fact that she is letting her child run the household by recounting how traumatic is was to know that the parent's bed was off limits, even during a storm. The horror, the horror!
