One thing that you don't have to learn to be a good mom/dad is your natural instinct to protect your child. All of these chemicals scare the daylights out of me! They inject poisons into baby products because its cheaper and don't lose a wink of sleep in their multimillion dollar mansions. Mr. Johnson from J&J, why do you put harmful chemicals such as parabens (which are linked to breast cancer because they attach themselves to the estrogen receptors) in my daughter's soap when you know it is absorbed through their skin and then found in their urine and then market it as though it is the only choice if you care about your baby? This means that carcinogens are flowing through her body. Gerber, how can you actually write the words 'organic' on your baby food and charge 2x the price as regular when only a small % of the ingredients are actually organic? (if it doesn't have a USDA certified organic stamp, it is NOT organic) I hate that these companies abuse a parent's drive to do the VERY best for their kids... it makes me sick! Although I am realistic in that you cannot protect your child from exposure to EVERY toxic chemical, (charlie would be the next bubble girl!!) there are easy (and often cheaper!) ways to mitigate them. Being an educated buyer is half the battle! Ok, the sermon is over ;)
