[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Right. Because her spouse's years of medical training pales compared to your net gleaned wisdom. Just like you know all about who does what at your personal and community pool. But as long as you don't have to spend those 10 minutes bathing your kid, hey, life is groovy[/quote]

Three of my five are in college. The other two are in high school. I'm not spending time bathing my kids these days. In 24 years of parenting we've had a total of one major illness- tonsillectomy. I'm pretty sure pool water didn't cause it. They very, very rarely even caught minor illnesses. And they spent every summer working on my grandparents (both sets) working farms. They ran barefooted most of the summer. Ate fruits and veggies right out of the ground. And probably never washed their hands. They have a healthy immune system exactly because like most normal parents, we let them get dirty.

When you and your brilliant husband have that kind of track record, maybe your opinion will mean something. Until ten, your just the typical D.C. germaphobe who probably has the sickest kids on the block.[/quote]

Calling bullshit on the no major illnesses claim. There's a whole other thread about these kinds of rose colored fabrications. 
But if that's the lie you need to tell yourself to maintain your sense of superiority over being filthy people, go right ahead. 
Nothing wrong with a little dirt, but you've got some gross habits. Please tell us that your house is cleaned occassionally and that you at least wash your hands after going to the bathroom and before preparing and serving food.
