This thread has been removed for review.  Although the sentiment of the original post is very much appreciated, the MDC User Agreement does ask that comments and questions about the User Agreement or moderator actions need to be shared via Private Message.  :)

 

In addition, while we love to see active conversations and debate, these conversations need to abide by the User Agreement Guidelines.  Especially the following:

 

 

Quote:
 We host discussion of nighttime parenting, loving discipline, gentle weaning, natural birth, homebirth, successful breastfeeding, alternative and complementary home remedies, informed consent and many other topics from a natural point of view. We are not interested, however, in hosting discussions on the merits of crying it out, harsh sleep training, physical punishment, formula feeding, elective cesarean section, routine infant medical circumcision, or mandatory vaccinations.

and of course,
