GTKY--What is your favorite hot-button bump issue?

kwinkle1980 · May 2012

No arguing allowed, but post your favorite taboo bump issue, whether it is CIO, solids, SAHM...whatever! We all have something we feel strongly about (and wouldn't mind arguing over). Let's hear them!

Mine is probably easy to guess...I like the SAHM/working mom discussions. I also like solids, but I avoid CIO debates.

ETA: you don't have to give your position on anything, just tell what you enjoy reading/discussing.

I do find the solids rather funny. But really I am waiting for the extended breastfeeding/babylead weaning to take off. There could be some real heat from that one.

Don't hate me. I have no problem giving my opinions, and in my head I might have snarky thoughts, but I have learned not to say things I would NEVER do, because I do some things that I swore I never would do. I don't want to sound like a hypocrite. Again, I will state my reasons for not wanting to do something but i no longer can say never, I don't trust that is final for me!

You don't have to say that your would never do something. I just mean that we all have our favorite controversial topics. I love to read the ear-piercing discussions, even though I don't have much of an opinion on that matter.

My favorite thing about this board are the different opinions and personalities. I think we are a great group, and far less snarky than any of the other boards (which I am waayyyy too chicken to even post on).

Ahhhhhh gotcha. I think then my favorite would be BF/FF because people get SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO worked up and defensive.

Solids and also SAHM vs working (outside the home) I find annoying and people just pick until there's nothing left! My favorite is probably BF vs FF.

I miss the old circumcision debates of yore. Back then we all had a lot more time to argue on the Internet.

I can't wait for the car seat debate.

I was checking those threads all day yesterday. I told DH I was going to sit in front of the computer all day just in case something really dramatic happened, lol.

It's not a hot button issue, but I love a good annoying-family-member-bashing (MIL in particular!)

Like rear vs forward facing?

Yes, I get all worked up over uneducated reasons for forward facing like "I like seeing her in the rear view".

iluvmylab · May 2012

I like them all. I think it makes for aninteresing read and makes the board more fun and active. That is until someone gets their panties in a bunch. But even that is interesting, lol!

Moozilla11 · May 2012

Honestly if I can use this

and this

At some point. I Like the debate/argument going on. Depends on the mood I am in really.

KeyLime81 · May 2012

I sort of miss the baby shower debates.

Every now and then, some FB vs TB drama makes for a fun read as long as it doesn't get too out of control.

KScheibe12 · May 2012

I suppose this isn't really a hot-button, but I love reading vents about family members. I can't stand DH's step mom. She's literally the spawn of satan. And my BIL drives me absolutely crazy - he's 26 and acts like he's 12. So, reading those posts makes me feel less guilty because I know I'm not alone.

lijuan09 · May 2012

I try not to participate in most of the discussions, unless there is something I have a REALLY strong opinion about.

I don't know that I have a favorite, but I can stand the solids discussions more than the SAHM/working moms argument. I think things will get way more interesting once our babies get a little older and we start having to discipline!
