Funny how repect is only required from one side. Where is the respect from the admin side? Do not insult my choice to spoon feed my child (this has been done indirectly by Marijke time and again - although she will disagree) just because you chose to go a different route.

Do not tell me I'm force feeding my child because I am spoon feeding her.

And do not tell me that my child will grow up to become overweight as a result of spoon feeding!

Elsa, I am the creator of this site. I have put long hours into this site to provide a platform for moms to support each other.

The query was referred to me and I will deal with it myself. This site is not a "police state" as you say. I ENJOY a difference of opinions. Never has a comment been deleted.

Not even on natural birth or c-section. No-one has ever been reprimanded for posting a comment. If you were on Pampers, you would remember the posts got out of hand. People were throwing insults at each other and no-one enjoyed that. You were afraid to speak your mind, because someone were bound to call you names or insult you.

The insinuation that one of the member's children mastered a "barbaric" act (one which this mother felt was in the best interest for her child), was an insult.

You are welcome to disagree in any way, as long as there is respect. You have not been "banned".

What I do ask you, though, is to please respect others' opinions, just as they respect yours.

Well guys this might very well be my last post!! I am about to be banned by admin for having an opinion! (HOPEFULLY they don't get all holy and decide to delete this post also)

I can no longer chat on Moomie, since it has turned into a Police State where people get crucified for having an opinion - opposite of Admin!

So Keep well everyone...and those who still want to chat you welcome to track me down on Skype
