Cry it out or not?!?!

HI! Should I let the kids cry themselfs to sleep or not? We do have people upstairs and I can hear their kids cry and I know they can hear my kids too.
Katie,
I have done that. It is heartbreaking. I usually go in after about 10 minutes, tell them its time for bed and they have to sleep. I pray with them and give them a stern, but loving warning that I won't tolerate any more of this crying. And thats it. Mine were a lot younger when I did this, so Im not sure what I'd do with older ones doing this. Is this new? or did they use to sleep with you?
