seriously. i'm watching it now for work and it is terribly upsetting. Claire Verity says 'i'm a bitch, i'm mean to them but it works', no touching, no eye contact, lots of talking about 'baby', presumably because she can't be arsed remembering the name... oh it's AWFUL.

one to avoid I think.

God, how awful- is she a maternity nurse or something?

is it a serious guide or a prog at how she does it?

supposedly. it's genuinely upsetting, those poor parents, it's all being ruined for them. lol, the baby's big sister is now complaining that she isn't allowed to have a cuddle and saying it's wrong.
'i don't understand why anyone wants to pick up a baby. a baby wants to be left alone to grow'. oh lordy lord.

Wtf is wrong with us that we are so reasdy to defer to lunatics?

(Aitch,are you a journo?)

Would it be at all possible to dose us all with Valium before it is broadcast? <looks around desperately>

it's a face-off between Truby king's methods (claire verity as mentor) and dr spock and continuum methods (with other mentors). utterly bogus and you've got to ask why the hell parents would sign up for this. the other two seem reasonable enough. DH is watching it too, he is wanting to put the boot through the tv.

That sounds like just pure abuse.
