Breastfeeding is one of the biggest hot-button issues on the parenting side of Facebook. So many crunchy parents are obsessed with it one way or another, but most of the time, it's mothers who breastfeed their children the longest who have the hottest take on this feeding practice. I understand that breastfeeding can be an emotional and fulfilling way that a mom can connect with her baby, especially since the baby can't speak yet. However, I reserve my right to think it's weird to breastfeed a kid that has teeth and can literally talk. If and when I have kids, that kid is getting fed by a spoon the second it is safe for me to do so. I do not need a toddler walking around society begging to be breastfed in front of strangers and God. If you've ever encountered weird breastfeeding purists on mommy Facebook groups, then these cringey parenting posts might resound with you.

    Font - Okay ladies, need some help urgently. Please don't judge me, I'm desperate. I just had a baby and I can't breastfeed, my nipples are way too sore and bleeding. No one around me is breastfeeding, I've posted an ad in gumtree and local Buy and sell asking to buy breastmilk but no response. I will absolutely NOT give the baby formula. My dog did just have puppies, do you think if I put the baby in with the litter the mum dog will feed her? Obviously it's a last resort to please refrain from

    Forehead - Hi All, I introduced egg to my 6 month old today and she had a bit of a reaction. It was egg strips and she actually loved it haha.

    Rectangle - Pray for God to deliver you from the spirit of death. Any time you get a suicidal thought just Pray that God takes it away from you. He is faithful to His word and He will take this unclean spirit out of your life! Just remain in prayer and have faith

    Font - And then doubled down when people called her out on it. Not the time or place, it assumes OP's faith (when there was no indication given), and regardless, it's gross as hell to imply that if someone of faith continues to struggle with a mental health crisis that they haven't prayed enough. less

    Font - Not nontoxic related but I hope it's ok to post. Do you think it's normal for a 2 week old to be content laying still for like 30mns looking at the window? I tried using high contrast toy with sound to see if she follows, she doesn't, is she too young for that? I'm worried about early signs of autism. Maybe I'm just overthinking

We're having a huge birthday / pool party for all the kids on my husband's side at in-law's house that lives literally right next door to us. Well my brother-in-law unknowingly invited someone that we did not want anything to do with. Here's a quick backstory. I'll try to make it quick. Before my husband was saved, in high school he had a gay best friend. One night they were watching p*** at this friend's house and

    Font - Anonymous member 5d This may be overly crunchy or controversial, but I was wondering if anyone had any experience in not getting a birth certificate/state registration for their child. I understand if this is not an allowed topic and gets deleted, but I thought I'd ask in case anyone has any information or advice. I'm wondering how possible it is when giving birth in a hospital as well. I know we have rights when it comes to the state and with CPS and everything. I know there are people w
