I agree with you too Trill. It looks like some blog post, so it could have easily been written by anyone. Anyone could write a list of the top 10 things they hate to hear, and we can only ever agree or disagree with that based on our own situation, and it could be based on research, organisational advice, or not. But its still great to see someone's views regardless, and how we all feel about that. We're all entitled to an opinion.
Different methods work for different people. For some, the gentle approach, for others, the hardline approach - for some women, hearing some of those things could have helped, like Trill said. I too would have liked suggestions, when I want to know something, I research as much as I can to see what options I have before accepting a form of intervention. It's just me. I like learning and having more options (or tools in the toolbox) open to me to try as I am sure some or at least one will help or work. We're all different. So we'll never all come to an agreement.
I think this has been a great discussion to see the pros and cons to this article, seeing differing reactions etc. I think sometimes when a discussion takes a different path than expected, everyone can learn so much through sharing. Its when people react to that, instead of a simple I agree or disagree, then they blame someone, the problems/war starts.
Lots of good sharing in here, I think.
