She's trying to make a good point, but goes a little extreme I think. -------------  |

This is a point that I continually talk to my friend about.
We have raised our children completely opposite, she tells me that I am either doing it better or she is not doing it by the book. But I don't think either of us are wrong, our intention is to give our child the best and the best way we know how. It is the druggies and abusers that are doing it wrong, not us. This is why I am so supportive of these forums, if we can come and discuss issues and cheer each other on then we are (even more!) firmly on the right track and doing our kids justice! ------------- DD1 May 2006 DD2 March 2011 DD3 August 2012 |

...and that's also what makes Oh baby such a great place! We're all different and we all support eachother's choices and provide advice/information when required, take it or leave it, it's up to you (just like all of those parenting books) ------------- http://lilypie.com">
