Do most FFing parents know powdered infant formulas are not commercially sterile products? How much of a risk is a E. sakazakii infection? Is it only a risk to premature and low-weight babies? According to the WHO article below, "infants under 2 months of age are at greatest risk."


According to the FDA, "a

So there was just one in your group? Because you keep saying "they" but then you only mention the one mom who seems to have other issues, as we discussed in another thread, and I do remember it now. This one high-needs mom/child unit, and a 3 y/o boy who asked for "titty" in a bank line.

"(I also have to say, I would not patronize a salon in which the hair stylist would tell me I had a choice to get a haircut or feed my child. That, IMHO, is not a very good way to treat one's customers.)"

Having worked in salons in the past, I just want to point out that it could be dangerous for a client to be allowed to nurse a child while she's getting her hair cut/colored/permed, whatever. I would also think it would be more dangerous if it were a fidgety toddler.

If the person in the chair is constantly moving, or say reflexively looks down to tend to a nursling, she could be cut with the scissors or get chemical in her eyes. There are just a lot of scenarios I could picture to make me think this situation is just not a good idea.

I think nursing in the salon is one thing but nursing WHILE being tended to by a stylist is just a bad idea.

***So my question now to you is...why won't you believe that there are other experiences beyond the 2 or so that you've described to us?**


No, I certainly do believe there are other experiences beyond my anecdotes.


Yes, one en-er in the group only, that group tho.


***(I also have to say, I would not patronize a salon in which the hair stylist would tell me I had a choice to get a haircut or feed my child. That, IMHO, is not a very good way to treat one's customers.)***


And that is perfectly fine. However I have to consider many more customers

Wait all night long, my dear. I read it as it was written, and there's no way for me to show you how I read it. I can't plug my brain into the computer and have it display its contents for you.

<<you are not rude for questioning me at all. I would never say to someone that their salon must be from an alternate universe, or anything like that. I also don't always answer certain posts for my own reasons, what's it to you?>>>

When you evade questions that have been put forth by your fellow debaters, you defeat the purpose of debate. Again, I couldn't care less if you think I'm "rude". I also don't care if you think any of my questions or comments are rude. It simply doesn't matter. When you don't take the time to answer questions, you make it all the more difficult to get your point across in the debate setting. It's an interesting tactic, but not an effective one.

<<>>

Well, it wasn't for me. And it must be your lucky day, because I decided to follow through with trying to pin you down with regard to it. I didn't miss a beat, however.

<<>>

No thanks. I'm done going around in circles with you. You're more then welcome to go back through the thread and find places where I asked you questions you never bothered to answer. If you chose to answer them and post back to me, I'll continue debating if the answers merit that.

<<>>

I'm not "try" anything. But thanks for repeatedly accusing me of doing underhanded things.

***I'm so glad that the guy who does my hair would never dream of treating one of his paying regulars that way!

***I don't think she'll ever have it in her to tease. Not in a mean way, anyway.***


why would she if it is only a learned thing?





Because she eventually will be in school and see it happen for herself?


Ah...I think I know what you're getting at. Here's where you say "a HA! So you admit that she can learn to tease from other kids!" Am I right? :-)
