@TemperanceBrennan: "You have a what now? A thingy you stick in your head to communicate with your friends? It has a video?? When I was young we used SMART PHONES" lol. "Facetime dammit!"

@.twist.: Hahaha. Well, he believes that if I'm not going to Heaven, I'm going to hell. I gave him the wrong answer, "I'm going where all of my friends are going to be...so that's most likely hell!" He doesn't know what to do with me!

@mrsjazz: I think it is very possible that in the future we could have a post-theistic society. In the Evolution of God by Robert Wright, he suggests that religion is a tool for humanity to explain what cannot be explained by science. As we discover more and more, the "need" for religion gets less and less. Just a thought.

@TemperanceBrennan: that's an interesting theory. I find myself personally getting less religious as I get older and learn more about science, the world, etc. (or maybe I'm just getting old and jaded, haha)

I kind of figure most of the stuff we think is right now concerning babies is actually wrong or will have a "better" way to do in the future. At the time everyone always thinks what they're doing is the safest thing. Just take baby sleep - my mom always put us on tummies because it was thought that babies could spit up and choke on it and die if they spent too much time on their backs.
@PurpleUnicorn: My mom got kind of annoyed when I told her that we wouldn't be doing rice cereal in the bottle. She got kind of snippy and was like "well, then he won't sleep through the night." *sigh*

@Mrs. Champagne: honestly I feel like the majority of choices I have to make is more about choosing the lesser of two evils than choosing the best thing!

@Dandelion: That totally makes me think of Wall-E . . . everyone turning into blobs drinking who knows what from their cups . . .

@Cherrybee: ha ha, I think that all the time, I wonder who is right...
I do wonder whether A will laugh at how I am with her, and whether she will be as shocked at how I'm raising her as I am at the way my parents raised me, lol. Not that they did anything terrible but they mock me so much for trying to protect A from germs that I'm sure they bathed me in viruses every night, lol.

@2PeasinaPod: Exactly. I find her reasoning to be a lame excuse for her to keep smoking. We had huge arguments about hers and FIL's smoking around the baby. It was pulling teeth for them even to admit that secondhand/third hand smoke might be bad for a baby. My DH had horrible ear infections as a child. One of those causes is smoking. She can't even put two and two together on that one. So much denial in his family, it's ridiculous.
