Cutting out night feeds for a hungry baby at night is cruel!

Judging other parent's is cruel..

Sometimes the best thing for a child is a functional mother.

As long as it is medically ok there is nothing wrong with training a kid.

To each their own.

every child is different but if you know that your child might be hungry and you deprive food then yes, that is cruel. My almost 3 yr old wakes up occasionally ....maybe once every 2 wks and wants milk in the middle of the night. Not sure if he's starving or it's a comfort food that helps him fall back asleep. I'm happy to help him since he cannot help himself.

My Mom would not let me eat if she thought it was not the right time for food. I am always noshing now and taking large portions since subconsciously I'm afraid I might be hungry later and boy do I know how that feels!

your mom didn't let you eat during the day? Or if you woke up at 11pm? Big difference.

if my kids wake up at night they can have water. Not talking about small babies under a year who are usually nursing at least once a night until either they sleep through the night on their own or I sleep train them.
