With this logic I wonder where a parenting decision stops in your mind and abuse begins?? Cutting off ears?? toes?? Perhaps clitoris and vulva?? I mean what the heck, if 50% of people do that it must be normal, right?! (I’m just making an analogy, imagining a society where around 50% of the people would cut off these body parts from their babies).

Let's weight that out.....jokes (that no one takes seriously) or someone who constantly causes grief to members. And when i mention that this doesn't make sense i get "Its none of my concern". So i ask you, WHAT IS MY CONCERN??? When does anyone else's say make any difference on this board?
I know i am not the only one who feels this way, but if i have to be the one who says it i'm fine with that. If i become banned or my post deleted because it is not relavent then what does that say? We can say whatever we want so long as it doesn't upset the universal balance of the board....which happens any time a debate happens.

I'm sorry, but SOMETHING needs to get done............The funny thing is....something like this shouldn't bother someone, because its ONLY the internet......but you would think you would be safe from these kinds of things with other like minded parents.....
