Children can die (and have) from suffocation from co-sleeping. I am sure there are safer ways to do it, but just make sure you read all the research and do whats best for you and your child.

Kids die in cribs too. Actually, I don't personally know a *single* baby that has died from co-sleeping, yet I personally know several that have died in their cribs/bassinets. You can co-sleep unsafely, but you can also co-cleep very, very safely. It is a personal decision, and not one that people should fear monger anyone into. There is a lot of safety information that is for co-sleeping as well...just depends on where you look.
