I have to be honest, the post CarlaK referred to was controversial and did make me cringe a bit. Not because of what was posted but because I knew there would be a reaction. I think the nature of a forum is that people can say what they want and get things off their chest. Claire did and so did CarlaK. She felt compelled to respond, just as I and others have to things in the past. Yes it can be harsh, and get you in hot water.
People cannot always agree with the way others parent and often criticise. That's the beauty/problem with the internet, it's not face to face so opinions can be magnified.
People are judged on AK, it happens quite a bit (just look at the reaction the poor woman who posted about CBC's book got this week), but at the end of the day it's just a website and not worth getting upset over. I know this only too well

Sending Claire and CarlaK ((((Hugs)))).
