It took a lot of talking to the doctor and researching studies that helped me realize she's a little off her rocker. Although, her information on a gluten free diet for her son with autism is interesting. He's doing lots better. I just hope thats not an issue I'll have to encounter.Kelly Tillotsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539581551186722567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4766448249041816731.post-52087061605380772582010-04-28T08:03:54.222-06:002010-04-28T08:03:54.222-06:00I enjoyed your review of these books. Caitlin Flan...I enjoyed your review of these books. Caitlin Flanagan did a review of the mommy war books a while back in the Atlantic Monthly. She took authors to task for being rather hypocritical. By that she meant they required poor women to take care of their own children while the hired help had to find someone else to take care of their own children. It was an interesting article. I think you might enjoy reading The Help by Stockett. It is about maids in the south during the 1960's. It deals with some of the same issues. I enjoyed it. <br /><br />I liked staying at home so much more than I did going out into the dog eat dog workplace. It has been a great blessing not to have to pay for child care, clothing, meals away from home and transportation to and from. I congratulate you on your determination.Yvonne Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14604335434167862809noreply@blogger.com
