Something I haven't done in YEARS

Soliloquy · 03-08-2021, 05:04 PM

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.

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

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.

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)

I see the babywise like advise on instagram and tiktok sometimes but saying it's not developmentally appropriate or that babies have been hurt is Mom Shaming and you get eaten. :eyeroll

It's making a resurgence lately I've noticed.
