healthy parenting group - WAS Vegetarian Myths

[Guest guest]

on the subject of the healthy parenting group we were discussing before...

 

kadee - i checked the archives and read over the posts about killing mice.

that really was a horrendous thing that woman posted. i would have been all

over her too. it looks like you weren't in the minority in calling her on

the unnecessary gore and outright glee about her animal cruelty, so that's

positive.

 

i also checked the archives for WAP discussions and that seemed fairly

positive too. the WAPers seem to be in a minority and i saw lots of people

there who were positively in favor of veg and called the WAPers on the

carpet for some of their ideas, especially as regards homemade formula (one

woman made the very good argument that it's NOT about " just another

alternative choice for alternative parents, " it's about giving advice to

people that is unfounded and may cause serious harm to their children's

health). one of the moderators even closed a post about WAP, saying that

the group was veg-friendly and even making an apology to the veg's in the

group for the WAPers comments. so i think i'm going to stick it out for now

and see how it goes. all of us natural parenting veg's should ambush the

group and make sure it stays veg-focused. c'mon, ya know you want to!

I received several private messages from people on the group that were reeeeally

not nice at all on the subject of a vegetarian diet. And the thing with the

mice. Two people e-mailed me privately, and one of them even said keeping

rodents in the house with small children was dangerous. Big time bad taste in my

mouth for that group.
