Not to make us seem worse or anything but the last residential school closed in 1996.

This is so badass and beautiful, all at once. What a beautiful organization and way to empower people in a positive, affirming way. Awesome, just awesome. :)

Wow I think you win the prize for the asshole comment. Seriously? Try a little sensitivity. Infertility is a diseases and it's really fucking hard.

Yes, though I can admit to being wistful now and again especially when I go through clothes drawers and pull out all the pants that have become floods and the t-shirts that bare midriff. All the other mom friendlies (not really friends...) posting all over FB about how sad they are their kids are at school and all

Um I had dozens because of health issues and history of problems during pregnancy.

My ten month old is that size. Good lord that's a big baby. Hope mum is ok! Yowza!

I don't know your mom but please know that's her insecurity showing, not any kind of reflection of you (but yeesh, sorry you went through that!).

As always, it's the assholes who are often the loudest. I go to church weekly and bigots and hateful people don't speak for me and I take every chance I get to call them on their bullshit. Love is so important, and the details of who loves whom is generally irrelevant.

Lame!

Well really, how many comments of misinformation does it usually take you to just look things up!

In Canada there is a sticker on the side of the seat, it's the same in the US. A majority of seats sold ARE tested and approved for plane use but not all. Look yours up. My Transport Canada approved seat was good enough flying from two US airports and we use it on domestic flights as well. Carseats in parts of

Carseats approved for airline travel ARE tested to simulate inversion in a representative plane seat actually which is why they get a sticker on them that says as much. Will it save your kid in a 400mph crash? Let's be realistic, no seat (or body) could take that force but in turbulence or a survivable crash it

Given the choice between my arms and a properly installed seat in a plane I pick the seat ten times out of ten for my kids. Carseats are tested to withstand forces placed on them and distribute them across the child's bone structure instead of soft tissue and they are designed to take a beating. I've installed a few

I've done it a few times, it's really not hard and worth my kid and everyone else's safety.

It is required that they be installed on the window seat. :)

Actually they must be installed in the window seat legally on flights. All seats display their suitability on a plane and they are far safer than the kid being a projectile.

Yep! If he'll do it with you, he'll do it to you. Good rule to remember in life.

I wear mine every time. with kids you can't say "wear a helmet" and not wear one yourself. I also figure I'm not the kinda gal who can get by on my looks alone. Brains are kinda important in that scenario.

I noticed the same thing! [edited to add: Hasn't been in my shopping cart since and it won't. There are too many great pastas out there to need to buy their stuff. If they made a real effort here I'd totally reconsider, but frankly this just sounds like "uh gee, I can't help but notice that nobody buys our stuff

I love the warning before that show comes on - the whole "This show may contain mature content, viewer discretion is advised." I'm sorry but there is NOTHING mature about any of those women. (and yet like a moth to the flame I can't turn it off!)
