Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

Babies are primitive creatures but I agree that holding them under running water is counterproductive to the furtherance of the species.

As a scientist I certainly am not one to judge, but the harsh reality of natural selection dictates that some may in fact not survive. This keeps the human genome strong.

We as a culture certainly do nurture the lesser among us, and that is as it should be. Fortunately they do not typically pass their defective DNA on.

Babies do not have "defective DNA." They're at a developmental stage. And okay, some may not survive...but that doesn't mean the parents shouldn't do everything possible within their power to ensure their babies' survival

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

And what happens when you hold your baby under too long and you kill it? You deserve to be held in water for hours until YOU give up just for suggesting that you stupid evil bastard. Babies are NOT wild things. The only way they know to let their parents know something is wrong is to cry and scream! They don't know any better if they cry in church and they DON'T deserve to be punished for it! They should be taken care of!

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

You have to break them, like any wild thing. One good way is to put the baby's face under running water. It'll fight and cry, but you have to be strong and keep at it. It might take a few hours, but eventually the baby will be too exhausted to fight and cry any more.

Here at the Hutchins house, we shake the demons out of the child. I feel so bad for these unsaved babies, being tormented and pulled apart by the Devil. But a few quick, sudden shakes and the demons let go of their tenacious grip. Peace and quiet is returned to the house.

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

One thing my lovely bride Norah has taught me about is children. Praise God she has such an instinct when it comes to either making or raising children!

She has a myriad of knowledge passed down to her through many years of trial and error by her family. You have only to look at her siblings to understand just how many bad errors she will never have to commit on her own.

One of the most wonderful tricks I've ever seen her do with a baby is to make it instantly quiet. I had always been partial to having them taken care of simular to the way the vet "de-barks" the dogs. But that can be expensive.

Norah simply uses a pacifier and about 3 1/2 feet of duct tape. Insert the binkie and then two quick wraps around the head with the tape. Instant silence. And what an instant change that is to the atmosphere of the house. Glory!

She is such an expert. She almost looks like a cowboy tying the legs of a calf. And I can't begin to tell you how it makes me giggle to see her throw her arms in the air yelling "Time!" with a big smile of success written across her face.

NOTE: This is also the perfect solution for children that can't sleep through the night yet and wake up for feedings 2-3 times a night.

There are many good uses for Duct Tape in the household.

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

That is just plain sick. When a baby cries, it cries for a reason, not just to annoy you.

Friend,

How is caring for a child "sick", Would you rather it be raped by some stranger?

Very true.. they cry when satan attempts to take over. It's their way of telling you they need the evil beaten out of them.

Who needs a baby sitter if you have a crib?

Putting a crib over the baby like a jail cell will keep them safe and sound while you are studying the bible or borrowing a cup of sugar from the neighbor down the street.

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

It's a good thing Pastor Zeke cleaned up your potty mouth.

You claim to be a Christian even though you are originally from a dothead country now living in a closet commie one. Interesting.

Oh wait here's one: piffle YOU

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

Wow! what a dirty mouth for a "christian" gal.

I'm sure HE is proud of you....

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

Let me get this straight: we should leave sinners alone (against the will of God) and say: Hey, you can do what you want, and the fact that you will be regurgitating Satan's spunk for all eternity doesn' bother us in the slighest." ?

Yeah, real "Christian" of you. Have you - in those 26 years - ever cracked open a Bible? Even a false one? Don't think so.

Oh wait here's one: FUCK YOU

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

Can't you accept each person for you they are? Yes, maybe they are sinners, but that doesn't mean to say they are bad people.

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

Are you suggesting that the good folks at vBulletin would persecute True Chrisitian™ Baptists?

What are they going to investigate?
If my devotion and Love of Jesus Christ and my adherence to The Bible is a crime then I'm guilty.
PRAISE JESUS!!

No, you are guilty for inappropriate abuse to people. Can't you accept each person for you they are? Yes, maybe they are sinners, but that doesn't mean to say they are bad people. You people are absolutely ignorant and idiotic. I have been christian for 26 years and I have never seen such profanity within a true christian forum. This is a disappointment. I sure the heavens would be outraged by your actions.

Re: Tips for Cranky Babies

blah blah blah at least 2 years if you ever get caught.

Caught doing what? Raising my children to be good Christians while obeying both God's laws and Man's laws?

If my children call the police on me, the police will give me a ribbon.
