Now could someone please talk me through the supernanny and her latest book “Jo Frost’s Confident Baby Care”?
I’m sorry but why would anyone take heed of words spouted by some dominatrix style finger wagging stuffy chick whose never actually had a child of her own, and let her dictate to you what is good and bad for your own baby, and by any stretch of the imagination think you feel ‘confident’ about any of it?!?!
Has she been to that rock bottom place in her life where all you want to do is throttle the little blighter and drop kick them off the balcony of your 10th story apartment?
Has she ever experienced the nightmare and indignity of ‘childbirth’ in which you’re made to endure hours and hours of pain more awful than you could ever dream to inflict on your worst enemy, whilst some nurse or midwife rummages about in your nether regions and announces “Not yet 10cm dilated dear, whatever you do don’t push” – and you want to punch her really really hard – and probably do if she makes the mistake of standing too close to either of your arms!
Has she ever had to live in a sleep deprived state of despair listening to ear splitting screams that you think will never end?
Has she ever had to walk about with the inevitable blow up rubber ring tucked under her arm everywhere she went on which she has to humiliatingly sit down on to get any respite from major discomfort from bits of your body that have been battered, bruised and most likely stitched up?
Has she?? Has she??
Nope, didn’t think so!
You go girl, just you wait and see how the parenting techniques pan out for you darling if you ever do have a baby, and all you want to do is curl up in the corner and quietly fade away, and meanwhile she’s finger wagging at you from the inner pages of her bestseller saying; “Don’t give in. Routine is king!”, and meanwhile back here in the real world, you’ll do absolutely anything for 10 minutes peace. And if that means sticking your baby on the boob every half an hour just to keep them from incessant ear-splitting screaming, then so be it!
I’m afraid good, solid, common sense goes straight out the window, because if it doesn’t, the likelihood is the baby will!

thank God someone has the sense to see things the way i do, man that b***h irritates me... Jo Frost’s is a fake and thank God no one i personally know will try the out of wachak suggestions.... lol, drop kick the kid over the balcony, everlasting screams, sleep deprivation... lol i can identify, still to fresh in my head...
And how about this for the latest on the 'non-motherly' carer:
....Currently single, Jo says that she has no intention of going through all that which the regular moms are living: she doesn't want children. It's not that she places her career first, it's that she doesn't know if she wants to have kids, ever....
