Parenting - July 2006

Is there anyone here who all too well remembers pinning diapers? How about folding?

My 8 year old son is still not potty trained. I have been trying to get him to go on the toilet for 6 long years but he refuses. I am unable to find diapers big enough to fit him now and am really tired of him peeing and pooping all over the house. I was wondering.... the next time he craps on the floor, if I rub his nose in it and throw him outside, will he finally get the point? This worked for my puppy, will it also work for a child?

Would you like to see the return of the belt at school? My answer is NO!! I do not think anyone should be allowed to abuse our children and would NEVER use such a cruel punishment on my kids. How do you feel?

i recently asked a queston on yahoo and they deleted it, it was no way in an offensive manner. Could someone have reported it saying that they didnt like it. I did receive a very rude answer from someone could that be the reason. Dont really want to write the whole question as it may be deleted agian!! but it was a message for teenage mums who want to join a group. Any help please

I have a hectic time with baby and chores, she never offers to help seems when she comes she just wants to interrogate me on goings on and never actually spends one on one time with the baby.... When I do have some quiet time during the week I want to cherish it on my own or do something I would like to do.

She is very persistent and insists on comming over during the week "to visit the baby". Unfortunately I don't deal with conflict very well, Is there a nice way to tell my mother-in-law to just bug off? Why can't she come on the weekends like everyone else? I mean its more convenient. I want to say it without making enemies, if you know what I mean. I have tried to suggest it but she is so very persistent.

I breastfed my girl for 6 months, and my boy for 10. Both of them had formula. Where was the misleading? Mead Johnson did not enter my home with a loaded .45 and make me use their product. I went back to work, and I dried my milk up, simple as that. I felt no need to be troubled at a demanding office job with pumping. You are very rude and crass. You are not God, and you have no idea about everyone's situations. You need to take a step back and really see if people WANT your spill before you give it. Stop hurting other women's feelings. most are hormonal, new mothers or pregnant, and they don't need your drama. You really need to check yourself. Your "advice" is self-righteous and full of La Leche League propaganda...what? Did they dispatch you to Yahoo! Answers to do their evil bidding here? So, they ARE everywhere, just like ants and cockroaches in an abandoned warehouse. Find a new hobby instead of crushing womens spirits. It's sickening.

We automatically have to "feel guilty"? I feel happy about my strong healthy baby. What about you? Please kill that noise. The only thing I am upset about is how you boob nazis are always up in everyone elses mix trying to run our lives and make us feel bad because we made different choices for our families than you did. Boo hoo. Get over it. You are no better than me, or the next formula user, and your kid has just a much a chance of ending up on skid row as anyone elses who feeds Enfamil or NAN or whatever. KMA and go to hell.

DING!!!! You get a ring on the door at O'dark thirty from some fat lady with a 19 month old in a sling hanging off her boob handing out pamphlets claiming if you don't breastfeed your baby will catchTB, acidosis, arsenic poisioning, cerebella ataxia, cystitis, Yaws, and Heaven knows what else. Just for the record, may baby has had none of the above, or even a common cold. I am just wondering if they are going to start door to door service since they are always at the Y handing out their unwanted pamphlets. But hey, they make one hell of a window cleaner with a little windex and some elbow grease.

Those Lanshinoh cloths are all I use. They are expensive but worth it. It really angers me that that go out of their way to say it's only for breastfeeding "moms and babies". Like their poop is any morre special than other poop. My baby still poops yellow curds just like your precioso breastfed ones. So, are we lesser "ormula feeders" allowed to use the product? Or are we not worthy?

Some boob nazi gave me this hell on wheels lectue on how I need to be breastfeding my now 4 month old son. I was simply buying fotmula and a few bottle brushes. What can i do about this properly next go round? This time, I simply went the hell off on her and basically told her i'd feed my baby purreed steaks if I wanted to, and for her to back up before she got beat down because I'm from the ghetto, don;t let the smooth taste and the business suit fool you. She went away, but I SOOOOOO wanted to chuck a 32 ounce can of similac at the back of her head. What gives her the right? Are all you breatfeeders like this? Here's a mental check...YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE. Get over yourselves for Chrissakes. God, that shopping trip was an experience from HELL. I wrote a 4 page letter to the regional manager of Target abou this that I wil drop off on my way to work tomorrow. F'ing bi+ch. Why are you all like that? My kid may be 1,000 smarter than your breastfed one. Who knows? Only God.
