J.B.
I do agree with you that the number of judgemental and unhelpful comments has increased, and it irritates me. I don't recall how long I've been a member of this site, but it has me listed as a Charter Member of my profile and in the beginning there was a significantly less number of catty answers. Half the time it seems like people just want to point out what others are doing wrong in their parenting rather than supporting other moms, which is what I personally thought was the point. So as others have said, you can't control the ugly people, so just ignore them. There are always going to be people who think they know everything; just shrug them off and go with the nice, helpful, supportive advice. There is still plenty of that on here--I think! : )
