[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 683316, member: 18958"] I respect the right to have personal opinions. I do not take personally what is said. I do question making judgments of parents who one does not know, in circumstances one does not know. One has no way of knowing what was in those parents hearts or in their heads. This is inference based on prejudices, assuming that what one thinks or does or has done is the best. That one knows better, knowing really nothing much at all about the individual circumstance or people. As far as I know the academic research can support one view or the other. We all have ideas about what constitutes good parenting. But to put in a post on a public forum, ones own judgment that parents who work may not care about their children, may put higher value on themselves and on working than their children, knowing that the majority of people reading your words, do work, to me is not the kindest choice.
