@Queen of Shake Shake: No apology to me is necessary. I’m just providing a place for people to vent since she doesn’t allow comments.

I'm sorry dude, I've tried to read VA in a way that would possibly make it appealing. I'm open-minded and sarcastic myself, and certainly, in my own stories of my son, try to get people to question what we're led to believe by the media. But I do not get the appeal she holds for 8000 readers. It's one thing to make people think, it's another thing to attempt to do that by promoting your own brand of ignorance. That'll be the the last link of hers I'll click on. (yeah, I know. not that she cares.) Queen of Shake Shake's last blog post..Just Because I Like To Irritate People

But, Michelle, if the people you know know not everything on the internet is true, than why should they stop critically thinking when V speaks? I disagree with 1/2 the stuff I read, doesn’t make it less amusing.

And considering the parent V knows, I can see why she’d blame the mother for everything. Also, she admits to being biased as all hell.

Similarly Freud said people project their emotions onto others, and men want to kill their fathers. His own mother married a man that resented her children from a previous marraige.

EVERYONE LIES! SE LA VI! And I don’t trust someone so equinamable that I can’t figure out where the lie is… >:o

This is one of the reasons I never pass this site on to my friends. As V has said before, she never fact checks and does only cursory research, preferring to go on in her ignorance because she just entertaining herself. This kind of sensationalistic parent-bashing has been a real theme as of late, and is starting to degenerate into the harmful. I'm all for parents being parents when it comes to raising kids, being firm with discipline and rules. I'm kosher with the training good manners, because it works. But to blanket accuse all grieving parents of murdering their infants is akin to saying everything you read on the Internet is true. Enough with the media-loving gruesome stories. The real ones where parents lose a child through simple tragedies aren't fascintating enough for the general public, but that doesn't mean they are secretly hiding a troublesome source. Sometimes babies die for unexplainable reasons, and it's not the parents. Period.

Dang, I’m going to bed. Suffocation, not asphyxiation. Why can’t I keep those two straight. Sorry for monopolizing your comments.
