The Mothering forum has been a personal cow of mine for a long time, and I think it's time to share this wonder with the world.

On the surface, it seems like an average parenting forum, with advice on preparing for the first day of Kindergarten, dealing with your child's bullying problems, and the like.

But, upon closer inspection, you'll find things that are troubling to say the least. Many of the users are anti-vaccination:

Others participate in Elimination Communication, which involves never putting a diaper on your infant, under some insane delusion that you can tell when they need to go by hand-movements or facial-expressions and stick them onto a potty in time.

Aside from that, there's Co-Sleeping, which is when you stick your infant in bed with you. I'm sure absolutely nothing horrible could ever come from rolling over in your sleep when there is a newborn baby next to you.

Finally... there's the breastfeeding craziness:
