MsJessi @MsJessi (423) • United States 9 Apr 07

lol, sorry, I've just got reading several posts about teenage pregnancies and how much people despise the fact that this happens. So I figured I'd give you a teenage mom to yell at, since so many feel the need to do so. I'm not...

pixiechick There are ways to get formula without stealing it. There are church organizations, government, doctors, hospitals,wic. And no I do not think letting them be placed by CPS is a good answer! I have recently had to deal with CPS do to things someone else did, and...

pixiechick I think I would have asked them to put the stick down also. They can be dangerous, even if playing. Accidents happen. I think parents are afraid to speak up to other children these days. So many parents can be so easily offended. I know I have yelled at other...

nursing your baby in public

AngieCall @AngieCall (23) • United States 11 Apr 07

What's your stand on this? In our country (Philippines) where I originally came from, nursing your baby in public is not a big deal.It's totally fine, while here in the USA a lot of the conservative ones are against to it.

pixiechick I see nothing wrong with nursing in public! People that do have a problem with it drive e crazy! You would not cover a baby with a bottle, or cover a baby in hot weather, why would you just because the baby is breast fed? Its the best way, most nutritous way...

dazediva @dazediva (166) 30 Mar 07

pixiechick I see nothing wrong with breastfeeding in public. If someone has a problem with it maybe they should move. You would not expect them to cover a baby with a bottle? If it were hot? And why should a breastfeeding mom be sent to a separate area because her baby...
