    • Thanks

      From Franny7 Yesterday

      Thank you for your support. What really freaks me out is that they have gon into my friends' mailboxes, and deleted my messages for me....wtf? Is that normal? See my hugbook and journal entry for more info.

      I am pretty sure that we have not always agreed...but that is fine! I just try to offer a new perspective, information to new parents. But it seems to be that thanks to a few vocal fanatics that are anti-anything-franny-stands for (I am pro breastfeeding, pro co-sleeping, pro attachment parenting, pro natural birth (if possible, of course) , against the H1N/1 vax, and pro leaving baby boys uncut)...then I face the threat of being censored, and having my entire threads deleted!

      Instead of deleting some of the nastiness that some women post in reply to me, they just shut down the shop altogether, so others cannot continue to have meaningful dialogue...

      I do not judge anybody for what they decide to do..it is their choice. I merely try to offer information, have people stop and think about the choices that they make. SO that they make an informed choice! Is that wrong?

    • Sympathy

      From Lioness816 Saturday

      I am sorry you are sad today. I hope the sadness goes away soon (and it will go away). Until then I hope it helps a little knowing that so many people love and care for you. {{{{{HUG}}}}}
