Web Watch has talked about ELIMINATION COMMUNICATION earlier, a method used by parents to encourage their infants to equate specific sounds with going to the potty.
Pavlovian, you say? Perhaps. But parents who practice EC swear by it, and it saves them hundreds of dollars a year in disposable diaper costs.

Hattie Garlick has a plan.
For 2013, she decided on a unique New Year’s resolution, to try to raise her son Johnny as cost-free as possible for a year.
That’s right — she’s not going to spend any money for anything that’s specifically geared towards her 2-year-old son.

Stripper names are interesting, aren’t they?
You can only imagine that there exists a Xerox sheet in the back of the bar that all new strippers go through, crossing off names as they become unavailable.
It couldn’t be as simple as this list of 700 STRIPPER NAMES, because some of the suggestions they have don’t seem to be very realistic: “Henry Poopdeck, the Sailer” is not a stripper Web Watch cares to see.
How unique is your name?
Sure, you may have replaced a “y” with an “i” (let alone decided that dotting the i with a smiley face would be “your thing”). Your parents may have given you a unique spelling of a typical name, in order to differentiate you as being “special” when you finally go off to school… much to the chagrin of those confused teachers, or the future ability for your child to every find a personalized license plate at SOUTH OF THE BORDER souvenir shop.

Population Control: Real Costs, Illusory Benefits
Today they expect there to be 7 BILLION PEOPLE ON EARTH.
That’s a lot of mouths to feed, people to clothe, waste to process.
One could expect that the Earth — or our modern infrastructure — was not built to sustain this type of function. More people just means more needs: from power to water, places to live, medicines, beds, etc…
No more does the old adage of a man and a wife deciding to procreate to have two children to replace them when the parents die; we’re seeing larger and larger families come around in countries around the world, putting a strain on systems that were never designed to carry that type of load.

FuzziBunz® One Size Cloth Diapers
12 Pack Gender Neutral (new) Colors
New parents often have a dilemma to decide, sometimes even before they try to have kids in the first place: are they going to be a “disposable” family or a “cloth” family?
More and more, the trend in eco-friendly parenting is to go with the cloth diapers. Technology has caught up to the absorbent fabrics being used, and they don’t have the stigma that going natural used to have in the past (“unexpected leakage” being the predominant concern).

What is the number one question that pregnant women ask about their upcoming labor and delivery of their brand new baby?
It’s not what you might think.
Deluxe Belly Cast & Bold Decorating Kit
Everywhere you look there are pictures of smug pregnant women.
Women who are thrilled with being pregnant, proud to show off their baby-oven – whether it be with belly casts or pumpkin paint.
And there’s nothing wrong with this. Many articles have been written about how some women become more beautiful to their spouses when they’re pregnant. How pregnancy only enhances her looks as she changes from “woman” to “mother”.
But there shouldn’t be a double-standard on this.
