Lisa,
We can get around easily enough.  Most of us have these sources in our
offices.  We just show the parents our sources and let them read what
the authors have said.

We can show parents that the program is allowing a certain leniency for
small or ill babies.

But, I'm wondering if the authors mind being taken out of context and if
they have any recourse in correcting the misconceptions.  The implied
endorsement would bother me a great deal.
