I was really for bf my babies. I bf my son until he was six months and stopped because I was pg with twins and was sooooo sick and had to take meds that I couldn't bf on.Kaytee said:
Then with the twins, my littlest could not latch on at all. It was so heart breaking. I pumped for her and bottled fed her my milk. The biggest twin didn't have a problem. I think I bf them for four months. It was just too time consuming at that point.
Having three babies who all got hungry at the same time. The girls also had reflux so every time I fed them they threw up and had to be fed again. That's all I was doing every day all day.
I hated to quit bf'ing but I had to. I had really bad Post pardum depression so I had to make that choice of sanity or bf. Sanity won! I had to put them on some $20 a can formula and everything actually worked out ok.
I wouldn't let the overbearing government get involved with anything to any greater extent than they already are! The government won't have a say in how I raise my kids!
Kaytee,
Why would the South rise in Civil War II? Are you assuming that the only anti-abortion folks in the country live down heah? We's also all stoopid.
Alex,
Are you from ND or are you there at the base? I went to UND for a few years. Small world.

Even stranger, I see you are in Raleigh now, and my sister goes to ECU for school, for no apparent reason I might add. Also, my mom was born in Raleigh.
Curiouser and curiouser!
How's the weather up there? It was 78 here yesterday. Not to rub it in! Heehee.

I think it is an excellent idea.
It seems that intellectually inferior women are more likely to breed more children than their smarter counterparts. This tends to increase the proportion of "dumber" people in society.
More intelligent women tend to lead more interesting lives and don't have time to be bothering with dirty nappies and ga ga baby talk.
A good alternative to a parenting license would be to add contraceptives to the water supply, particularily for areas where there tend to be lots of breeders.

Interesting idea. But as many posts stated, it doesn't seem practical.
My twins were premature and had to stay in the NICU (my daughter for a week and my son for 2 weeks). During that time we got great education on caring for newborns. I met with a lactation consultant many, many times, and she observed some feedings. My husband and I bathed our kids under the helpful tutelage of a NICU nurse. They also gave us tons of tips on everything from soothing two crying babies to easier ways to dress them. Lastly, they provided a lot of encouragement, support, and positive feedback. After the extremely rocky pregnancy, c-section, and severe anemia, I so appreciated all of that. If everyone could receive such wonderful one-on-one care for several weeks at home, babies would get off on a much better start.

LMAO! **Thinks also of tampering with water line for low-income areas where all teenage parents on state assistance live**melynie said:
You know.. in 'theory' I can see this as a good option. I wouldn't want the goverment all up in my business telling me if I am an acceptable person in someone's eyes to have children. Also, I think of all the people who want to adopt because they couldn't have children. KWIM? There'd be next to none to adopt.
