1. The expression, "It's as easy as taking candy from a baby." Must be a heck of a lot easier than taking an uncapped marker, a nail file, a nickel, a Ziploc bag, a bar of soap, a bottle of saline, a computer mouse or a battery from a baby.
2. How my 21 pound 8-month old currently wears clothes labeled Newborn, 0-3 months, 3-6 months and 6-9 months. The weight-based clothing doesn't make any sense either, because she fits comfortably in clothes labeled 8-11 lbs., 9-16 lbs., 12-18 lbs. and 12-26 lbs. (I wish I had clothes that would accomodate a 14 lb. swing!)
3. I bought a board book yesterday that has a sticker on it: Warning. Choking hazard for children under three. What child under three can fit an entire book in her mouth? The only choking hazard I can find is the sticker itself.

Travails of an Indian mother
Hi
That was an interesting post. One could see your feeling in the post. Keep it coming
Though I may NOT agree to all what your said, your blog brought back lots of old memories and thoughts about my COUNTRY, INDIA, our society, friends and relatives, Jessica Lall et all
While we as world citizens think that Justice and equality are the most important cornertones of a civil society, does the ground reality reflect that ?
We feel that friendship, love, affection and above all our family is very important in shaping our lives and thoughts. To most of us, a mother, the epitome of love and sacrifice, plays and important role
But what happens when the same mother is denied justice in her own family ?
