I was out walking yesterday and stopped to talk to a young woman who was laying out wet diapers on the bushes in her front yard to catch as much sun as possible while her baby crawled around on the grass. 1. She was using clothe diapers and not disposables; 2. Gasp, she was letting her baby come in contact with dirt; 3. She told me she was a stay at home mom. I wanted to hug her. I was all three although I did go back to work after each of my babies. Sort of wish now I had not and I didn’t work full time. They’re in their 30s now.
For those who don’t know - sun drying clothe diapers is the only way to get the stains out. You don’t want to use harsh bleaches. Sun is God’s way of bleaching out the yellow and brown stains. Also, if you use clothe diapers and drop them in a diaper pail and wash them daily, it’s no big deal. And no solid waste.
Well, kudos to you ma’am.
I’m one of the young men looking for one of these lovely ladies. I just have to get enough work so that I can support one so she can stay at home. :D
And folks who tell you otherwise - we ARE winning, and we WILL win.
