Nope, that's so nowadaysish falsehoods.
Infants cannot express adaquetly what they are thinking. But, they jolly well know when mom is in charge
Children from the age of 1-5 have the most crucial development and those years are the foundation of their emotional and mental health for life. But an infant is much more impressionable than a 4 year old. The younger they are, the more priority they get.

Most 6 week olds get dumped at a sitter with 8 other kids with one caregiver. Kid lays in the doona all day and bottles get propped.

1:1??? Most babies aren't getting 1:1 care. They're with 5-6 other babies and are left in the stroller or doona all day and they're not even held when being fed. That's basically stripping babies of crucial needs.

The kids are most of the day the mother's responsibility.
It's the mother's mental health that needs it.
but... let's agree to disagree.
