What’s one thing parenting related that you feel very strongly about?
For me it’s breastfeeding, hands down. Not only does my child have the right to be breastfed for at least the first year of his life, without any hassle or intrusion by doctors, nurses and formula-pushers, but I have the right to breastfeed my child anywhere I happen to be at.
I also feel very strongly about not going overboard with attachment parenting. I know that seems to go against the grain because of my feelings about breastfeeding, but that’s part of the problem. Nowadays parents – mothers especially – can’t seem to breastfeed or co-sleep for a bit without wanting to do it for very long periods of time. For instance, breastfeeding: I think a good time to begin weaning is around two years of age. Co-sleeping? I don’t think it should be done after the child is sleeping through the night. A child needs to learn some independence at an early age, and disrupting the marriage bed is not worth the bonding that may come as a result of the child sleeping there night after night.

I guess my big thing is circumcision. I am strongly opposed to it. I’m also very interested in breastfeeding rights, and seeing more emphasis made on it in an effort to stop the flat-out ignorance I see regarding it.
