Costco's Kirland Diapers are also phenomenal! I also have been through a litany of diapers and was surprised at how well Kirland held up, better I thought than CVS, though I have not tried Walgreen's. Many of my friends are now hooked as well. Thanks for the tip!

In Spanking or Discipline?
Well written! Though I have never had to spank my son I do believe that this type of discipline can be used in a proper way. I have seen the spanking of children due to extreme frustration and as you so well put "parents who spank may not have the tools...to effectively manage parenting..." I have also seen parents that have used spanking in a controlled and unemotional way. I do believe there is a way to balance the two if that is the route your family has chosen.
Though I side in the middle of this debate I do believe the biggest issue is not which we think is better for your family but how do we help families to have all the necessary tools so that the child is really trained for adulthood. Why doesn't our society place more importance on the raising of our children? In other countries, children are considered a true blessing and it is shown through year long maternity leaves, daycares that are actual learning centers and not holding places, cultures that are unified in their raising of children - I could go on with the differences. Often times our children are overlooked until they become a buying consumer or a contributing member of society but our society is not concerned with how they get to that point. How many other countries had to be told they could not market cigarettes to children? Until we are able to learn to rectify that, the spank or not to spank debate will always be with us because the real issue - teaching all parents as one and valuing our children as people - has not been addressed.
In Romantic Getaway Just a Short Trip from Bosto...
I stayed at a Bed & Breakfast across from Captain Farris and thought the town was absolutely wonderful. We had such great getaway and would recomend the town to anyone wanting to get far away without going the distance. Captain Farris was next on my list of accomodations to visit.
