Ok folks. This is going to be the short tempered version of my usually more polite posts. Frankly, after a summer of a mother in the rehab nursing home, and after about 20 calls daily on oxygen, wheelchairs, and other assorted details concerning this family crisis, I am out of patience. I would like to remind everyone that sometimes, we don't sit here reading with a fine eye to detail. We have lives, we have children who need help, we have aging elderly parents, we have work that pays. LACTNET is volunteer work for me and for the other list volunteers. Please do not infer that we condone anything by not commenting. I think that this discussion may have merit with regard to breastfeeding. However, it has all been said both this time and every other time it has reared its ugly head on Lactnet. We have no opinion publically on this issue. We condone nothing. And, from long experience we realize that we cannot have a discussion on this subject on this list because it quickly spins off into a spitting contest...and away from breastfeeding. Let's not have any more posts on this subject for a while, ok? I can't stomach it. But, please don't assume anything about how we are thinking on the subject. We do everything we can to keep the list going politely, and on topic. Frankly folks, I have things to do in my life at the moment that take precedence over refereeing yet one more discussion on circumcision. Be polite. Drop the subject. Go to private email. USE YOUR DELETE KEY when you don't like a post.I am steamed up and have HAD it.
