I doubt that he's running into the street and she's saving him from personal bodily injury. With that said though, I think that the media is happy to perpetuate a particular image when it sells magazines--and let's face it--this sells. I neither defend her or exhonerate her. But grabbing a 12 yo, while I wouldn't call it abusive, isn't the same as grabbing a two or three year old. You Can't Have Your Cake and Eat it Too: Thoughts on Refusing Vaccines - Blog Entry14 Apr 2008 05:34 AM Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. You Can't Have Your Cake and Eat it Too: Thoughts on Refusing Vaccines - Blog Entry14 Apr 2008 04:51 AM I agree. It irks me to no end when parents knowingly send their children to school when they're ill and I tend to agree that vaccination is rather necessary. There are some vaccines here which I deem unnecessary--like the flu vaccine for example. (Rotavirus). Before you can register for school you have to provide proof of vaccination--but some states allow for religious exemption and of course homeschooled kids don't have to be vaccinated. This is how I've been able to delay vaccinations. You Can't Have Your Cake and Eat it Too: Thoughts on Refusing Vaccines - Blog Entry14 Apr 2008 04:28 AM Just to be clear. . .I have never said that vaccines cause autism. It's very interesting that you have laws to protect pregnant women. Here, to enter school, people must show proof of vaccinations but there are ways around it. A Great Sensory Motor Experience for Baby - Blog Entry12 Apr 2008 06:35 PM Absolutely! It's all good--and in fact playing like that is really good for her. Personally, I really think that it inspires creativity. While all the other kids play with toys, ours create toys out of what they already have. ;-) Benefits of Breastfeeding Are Over Stated - Blog Entry12 Apr 2008 06:21 PM I would hope it wouldn't change anyone's mind about breastfeeding. What I was responding to was the "buzz" that was created upon the study's publication. The buzz is that the benefits of breastfeeding are over stated. If there really isn't a difference in boding when you look at 6yos and there isn't a difference in health. . .that implies that bfing is overstated to these doctors. Thanks for your take. Dancing with Same-Sex Partners - Blog Entry12 Apr 2008 09:59 AM Oh Michele that's easy. . .the lighter one is the lifted while the heavier one is the liftee! ;-) Benefits of Breastfeeding Are Over Stated - Blog Entry12 Apr 2008 03:10 AM I would be very interested in hearing your take on it. LOL it might even be more blog fodder! I didn't read the study (like I said) and I'm not sure which claims are being "over stated" in their opinion. I am more responding to some of the doctor's comments who wrote on the study. But are they saying, "we can't tell moms they're horrible people bc they formula feed?" Well--I can agree with that. Can we say that bm doesn't really have immunological properties? I'm sorry but that just doesn't make sense from any way you look at it. Thanks for your comment. What Is and Is NOT Chipotle - Blog Entry10 Apr 2008 10:50 AM See? Annoying isn't it? Now I have rectified the world of this evil. Ur. . .um. . well maybe not! Courtney--I'm glad I could teach your family all about chipotle. ;-) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 169 170 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 188 189 190 191 192 193 194 195 196 197 198 199 200 201 202 203 |
