maciascl They had every right to say it. And I like them even more now for saying it. If you haven't seen it yet, check out Shut Up & Sing. IT's a documentary about everything that went on around that.

are you also a natural attachment parent?

mememama @mememama (3076) • United States 22 Feb 07

I find that a lot of AP people I've come across also do natural things, like cloth diaper, eat organic, not vaccinate, etc. What do you do? Do you believe living naturally fits in with your parenting philosophies?

maciascl For me it is hard to seperate the 2. Not that you can't be AP w/o eating organic etc... but for us & pur live style they are 1 in the same.

lillake @lillake (1630) • United States 3 Mar 07
