Something I haven't done in YEARS
Frequently at our homeschool co-op people bring in boxes of books they no longer want. People can look through them and take what they want. Today I was just glancing through a box, nothing caught my eye, until I saw a well-read copy of Babywise.
Picked it up and went and buried it in the trash. Felt good. |

Re: Something I haven't done in YEARS
I haven’t done that in a couple of years, either. It does feel good, though!

Re: Something I haven't done in YEARS
This is a great idea! I never thought of going through the free stuff at coop and taking out the harmful stuff. I will keep this on my radar for the future.

Re: Something I haven't done in YEARS
I don’t know many with babies right now and was just wondering is Ezzo and the Pearls are still a trend.
I used buy every copy I find at half price books. Your post Brings back memories (don’t recall last time I saw one in a store)

Re: Something I haven't done in YEARS
It's making a resurgence lately I've noticed.
