I took a swig of the haterade while I was reading some posts on my facebook page this morning (see, this is why I shouldn’t even get on facebook). I had a fb friend post a link to a blog about mothering. Then I read, on that blog, her manifesto on parenting, and though I agree with her notions in general, she lost me at the part about gentle discipline. I can only assume, due to her overall tone, that she must be the parent of small children and is NOT in a blended family.
