About Me:
I'm 23 years old and a stay-at-home mom. Am married, and have been since 5/7/05.
What I'm about:
I plan on doing elimination communication first, with cloth diapering as a back up.
Am breastfeeding exclusively.
I plan on baby-wearing. Slings have always appealed to me, ever since I saw a woman with one a few years ago, I thought "Jeeze, that's a brilliant idea!"
So, I guess you could say I'm looking forward to doing attachment parenting stuff. ^_^
HOWEVER, I don't really consider myself "crunchy" and I'm anti-militant. I think people have a right to raise their children however they would like, without being told what is better.
I have no problem with people who formula feed, or who let their kids cry-it-out. These are things I don't personally choose to do, but again, I have no problem with people who do them. I wouldn't try to change anyone else's mind.
Are you anti-vax?
Young Mother: No formula, just mommy’s healthy natural breast milk.
House: Yummy.
Young Mother: Her whole face just got swollen like this overnight.
House: Mmhmm. No fever, glands normal, missing her vaccination dates.
Young Mother: We’re not vaccinating.
[Baby giggles and coos]
Young Mother: [Takes a toy frog and starts to make frog sounds] Gribbit, gribbit, gribbit. [Giggles]
[Baby smiles and giggles too]
House: Think they don’t work?
Young Mother: I think some multinational pharmaceutical company wants me to think they work. Pad their bottom line.
House: Mmmm. May I? [He takes the frog and starts to do the gribbit noise with the baby]
Young Mother: [Whispered] Sure.
House: Gribbit, gribbit, gribbit. [The baby laughs] All natural no dies. That’s a good business: all-natural children’s toys. Those toy companies, they don’t arbitrarily mark up their frogs. They don’t lie about how much they spend in research and development. The worst a toy company can be accused of is making a really boring frog.
[Young Mother laughs and so does House. The baby giggles again]
House: Gribbit, gribbit, gribbit. You know another really good business? Teeny tiny baby coffins. You can get them in frog green or fire engine red. Really. The antibodies in yummy mummy only protect the kid for 6 months, which is why these companies think they can gouge you. They think that you’ll spend whatever they ask to keep your kid alive. Want to change things? Prove them wrong. A few hundred parents like you decide they’d rather let their kid die then cough up 40 bucks for a vaccination, believe me, prices will drop REALLY fast. Gribbit, gribbit, gribbit, gribbit, gribbit.
House and I both think you're an idiot. Vaccinate your children.
