An alert from an AP email list:
The season finale of Supernanny on ABC hits at the core of Attachment
Parenting philosophy. The mom wears her 14 month baby in a sling and
still breastfeeds frequently. Jo (the "supernanny") admonishes her
for her terrible parenting skills saying, "She's 14 months and you've
got her attached to you like koala bears!" and "If she's not on her
hip, she's hanging off of her breast!" while the announcer quips,
"Somebody give that baby a bottle!"
This is a perfect example of entertainment influencing negative
trends in child rearing. Go to http://abc.go.com/site/contactus.html
to lodge a complaint for this low blow to the values we hold dear.
Supernanny airs Monday, March 12 at 8/7 central pm on ABC.
