this has got to be the first time i have ever seen ANYONE say cloth nappies are worse for a child :O. Disposables are relatively new in the history of human beings, wonder what people used before them. AS for the opening post, sounds just like doo gooders & DOCS here.
For #28 and #48, this just goes to show that the public schools have to much power. whether you take care of being used as a punching bag or do something like wright about it the outcome is always the same. You end up getting in trouble anyway you decide to go. Almost to the point that you can't make them happy whatever you do. Now if the school made my nine year old daughter strip down... Let me tell you something... I would own that school. They would have wished that one of them had enough brains to figure out that wasn't the right thing to do. cloth diapers are fine. Schools suck. Let's make a third grader to a science experiment in the middle of the holiday season meant for someone in high school and just see how many of them get beat for all the stress it adds to the homelife right around this time.
ok ok. Before the world comes to an end let me just say I noticed I didn't spell a work correctly. Just to say sorry didn't mean it. Let me correct it. write. sorry. Lord it's been a long day and i'm tired.
when i was 10, i told my teacher that my mom hit me. i had multiple dark bruises on my leg as proof. my teacher went to the vice principal and told her what i said. since the principal and vice principal knew my parents and thought they were very upstanding (even though we were dirt poor and my parents smoked weed in front of us on a daily basis) she said that i was lying bc my mom would never do that. in the usa, teachers are mandated reporters of child abuse. nothing was ever reported for me or my three brothers. we were abused until we moved out of our parents' house.
That definitely sucks. Sorry to hear it.
Good for you for actually saying something -- if that makes up for it at all.
You deserve it for believing that that actually helps the enviroment. Also, why are liberalfags/conservatards waging war in the comments section?
FYL for real....god I hate nosey ass neighbors! you should fling the used diapers at their house
Woah... seriously? Why would Child Protective Services even bother turning up?
I'm completely baffled by how anyone could believe lunches like you described could be considered inappropriate.. Did they ever cite anything even remotely reasonable as to why that wasn't right? Or just that they thought she was getting unprepared lunches or something because it was heavy on the veggies and actual left-overs/meal type food instead of the standard sandwich and junk food most kids get? Just curious.
Well, it's not like that shouldn't have gone well unless there's you were actually doing something that was wrong. It's more of a waste of their time than it is yours. Of course, the real irony is that the neighbor that reported you was a butthead who was content to spew crap out of his/her mouth. Now that's what I call funny.
Cloth diapers require laundering, which requires water, electricity, chemicals, and causes a larger burden on the local septic disposal systems. As far as "Envirogrungy Points" go, cloth vs. plastic is a total wash, so let's stop hearing about how numbie-nuggies and woobie-woo-woos cloth diapers are for Mommie-Gaia, shall we? That said, my opinion of Child "Protective" Services is basically unprintable. They are slimy little bureaucrats on a power-trip, and nothing more. Case in point? That couple in New Jersey who had their kids taken away from them this past Spring for "naming them wrong". There never was nor has been any evidence of abuse of any kind, but because they named their kids after Nazis, their kids are being raped, starved and beaten in Foster "care" as we speak, and the parents will probably never regain custody of them.
Washing cloth diapers, seems like it would add a laundry load equal to a small load of white towels a day. That doesn't seem like much to me. I would rather add a load (maybe cut down on towels), to save money and slow down the filling of land fills. I know the argument that cloth diapers are not much better for the environment then disposable is based on the fact that you use water and soap to clean cloth diapers, but you already need to do that for clothes. So I think by using cloth diapers, environment friendly soap and an energy efficient washer, you really are helping the environment.

I think you should rethink where you moved if they don't understand what a cloth diaper is...
As long as you change them as soon as they are wet or soiled, Cloth diapers are so much better for them then wrapping their little butts in plastic. Just keep doing what you are doing and hopefully your neighbors will get their own life one day.
