Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 I don't understand why people are upset that a circumcision link was posted. It was obviously for informational purposes, which is what I use this list for. If I don't like the information I read, I move on, or *maybe* do some more research on it. LOTS of information is posted here every day pertaining to issues that are NOT strictly vax related (birth control, various health problems, fluoride, homeopathy, on and on and on.) No one is trying to argue about anything, but simply putting the information out there to help people make an informed choice, or sometimes people post questions on here b/c they don't have anyone else to turn to and this group is so supportive. I, for one, am extremely appreciative for the high quality and quantity of info I find on this list. It is about sooooo much more than just vaccines.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 I am not upset about a circumcision link that was posted. I am bothered by the posts that follow. I am upset by the comments that imply anyone who circumcises their son is abusive, cruel or uninformed. That is why I sent the post I did. I joined this list to discuss vaccines, to reaffirm our decision to not vaccinate and to keep up to date on vaccine info. I do not join to be called names or have false info implied. If I wanted that, I would join a mainstream list and advertise how we don't vaccine, how my daughter still nurses and how my 8 year old still loves to co-sleep. ~`~Holly~`~ iel (5/96) & Jenavieve (5/02) " It is not how fast we learn that counts.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Every so often there is an off topic post - it doesn't bother me, I simply delete if I am not interested - but most times I am interested....

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Thank you!! I agree! This list is a great source of information for the uninformed like myself!! Please lets not stop this topic just because it's off topic! I need this information... I'm trying to decide what's right and when I decide I need to be able to back myself up and convince my husband!! - Angelina due: 10/26/04 OT: circumcision I don't understand why people are upset that a circumcision link was posted.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 I wish I had known more about circing before my son was born. Now I know and it is more of a source of pain. I really dont mind the posts as long as they dont go too far. I suspect this wont happen. Thank you!! I agree! This list is a great source of information for the uninformed like myself!!
