– My Beef With Doulas. One mom has had it up to here with doulas after two bad experiences with these labor helpers who didn’t show up.
– The Power of Women. Jordana Horn responds to a piece that suggests the problem at Sandy Hook was that there was no men around to protect the women and children.

Can we ask?
It's important to us to keep the warm, joyfully Jewish community on Kveller accessible for all. Reader donations help us do just that. Can you spare a few to keep Kveller free? (We'll love you forever.)
– It’s Not Attachment Parenting You’re Mad About. Mayim Bialik responds Tzipporah’s post, and suggests finding a more supportive, less judgey AP community.
