liz - ahahaha...love it! Soooo true!

DD- Im not missing your point - i hear you loud and clear!!!! But I have to correct you, they are not just 'popular' or 'fashionable' right now (unlike the 'fashionable' Tizzie Hall) and not all are simply theories! Please, this is behavioural science, the science of the human brain and behaviour. Im not going to continue this argument, particularly if you have not spent 6 years studying child development and behavioural science!

I can say with absolute conviction that her methods go against all child development theories - HER METHODS go against all CHILD DEVELOPMENT THEORIES!!!!!! It is what it is....

And Im sorry, Im not getting into the whole breastfeeding/bottle feeding argument here, but DD and MLM those comments you made, make me so sad...is it all about what you need? what you want? whats best for you? you were turned off by bf? you couldnt stand it? I think TH is probably just the ticket for you both, since parenting seems to be about pleasing YOU!

Im not saying you are a bad mother for not breastfeeding your babies, its just the way you put it, and your reasoning behind it seems so cold. So many mothers try so hard to breastfeed their babies, and for whatever reasons, are not successful and have no choice. But to choose bottlefeeding because you were turned off by it...or just couldnt stand it...I just cant understand that. Sorry.
