The airport in Roanoke, Virginia really is very nice and I am just tickled that you mentioned it!
"It's YOUR KID, you spawned it, YOU raise it."
You know what? Lets talk in 50 years when my offspring is the one responsible for deciding how long your are going to be laying in your own piss in your bed at the old folks home.
It is in everyone's best interest that we raise generations of loved and wanted human beings and not assholes.
...of ALL TIME (and I mean ever) is without a doubt Sanford and Son.
1. Until I used a swaddling blanket on my cranky colicky newborn, he couldn't sleep.
2. I live in Europe and the zippered "sleeping sack" alternative to a baby blanket is not only safer it makes so much more sense than trying to get a tiny twisty turny person to stay under a blanket all night.
3. Baby signing has nothing to do with whether or not your baby can hear. A one year and two year old child may and often does know exactly what she wants/needs but lacks the fine motor skills to manipulate her tongue and mouth into forming words. This can be hugely frustrating and lead to tantrums. I taught both my children how to sgn for basic things like "eat", "drink", "new diaper", "book", and so on. It was easy and they picked it up quickly and enthusiastically.
Why the generic snottiness concerning things that are in my opinion a huge improvement in living thru the really stressful first few years of a childs life?
