Knitting your own Birkenstocks?!
Katie Hopkins again.. Doesn't she ever go away? The debate about Attachment Parenting didn't seem to even go anywhere or be resolved.
Anyone else see it?
AIBU to think Katie Hopkins needs less airtime?

See the thing is if Katie had 'rocked' she didn't she sounded like a fool then she would have came back at peaches with the facts re cortisol etc, but she didn't because she's an uninformed irritating cunt.

Thrush.

Retropear · 12/11/2013 13:46

She made me laugh.Grin

I sadly had to endure many a toddler group down my way with the worthy sling brigade.

Retropear · 12/11/2013 13:47

My she could barely get a word in edgeways and pointed out quite rightly that there is always a study showing the opposite.

MySiamese · 12/11/2013 13:49

PG didn't infer anything about parents not loving their children retro, that's just what YOU got from what she said.

P.S With so many kids that young a sling would probably help you a lot, AP aside.

OrlandoWoolf · 12/11/2013 13:50

TBH, it's just nice to see someone having a go at Katie, telling her what she is and treating her how she treats others.

I think Peaches should have practised the sneering looks to give to Katie though Grin

noddyholder · 12/11/2013 13:50

She really seems to hate other women no matter who they are and what they do.

Gileswithachainsaw · 12/11/2013 13:50

Well she is kinda right on that part. There is always some study lol happens on here a lot. Someone so convinced they are right about something that shocks everyone and produced blogs from 1984 to back it up, Wink

Retropear · 12/11/2013 13:50

I tried it,it didn't help,it made me want to chew my arm off.

The inference was there which Peaches knew only too well.

noddyholder · 12/11/2013 13:52

On a purely shallow note sitting next to Peaches really showed up how dated the whole fake tanned highlighted hair looks

YourMaNoBraBackOfMyCar · 12/11/2013 13:53

FWIW I don't think KH believes half the shite she spouts. She's there to be controversial and say what the silent minority want to but won't. I bet even she has limits although I'm struggling to thinknof a topic she wouldn't spout shite about.

Retropear · 12/11/2013 13:54

To be fair she is probably old enough to be her mother,pretty sure I must be.

Retropear · 12/11/2013 13:56

Just had a fab idea for a TV show- MumSwap featuring Katie and Peaches swopping roles for a week.Grin

Gileswithachainsaw · 12/11/2013 13:56

Retro I'm still :o at your 8th b-bullshit comment

OrlandoWoolf · 12/11/2013 13:57

I would just love Katie to do a web chat.
Or maybe Peaches now.

Retropear · 12/11/2013 13:58

Tailtwister · 12/11/2013 13:59

Let's face it, most people do AP in some form or another. It really shouldn't have a name, it's just responding in a reasonable manner to your baby. Just because you don't bf or co-sleep doesn't mean you don't love/bond with your child.

I thought Peaches did well, but imo she should have shut up and let KH speak. She lost control of the debate the minute she started interrupting her. I loathe KH, but I think she took advantage of Peaches losing control and ran with it. If Peaches had retained her composure, she would have made much more of an impression.

ControversialAnnie · 12/11/2013 14:00

I've just watched this on Youtube.

Hilarious, KH couldn't get a word in.

Go Peaches! Rent-A-Gob, Haha!

OrlandoWoolf · 12/11/2013 14:01

I think Peaches probably saw it as an opportunity to have a go at Katie. I can't really blame her.

YourMaNoBraBackOfMyCar · 12/11/2013 14:05

I couldn't sleep with my babies (9ft beds aside). I'd get up in the morning, knackered, stressed and with sore shoulders. I hate it when theyre ill and demand a spot in your bed. :o

Leopoldina · 12/11/2013 14:05

Paula Yates wrote parenting books (& look how well that ended). Maybe Peaches is going to get an offer to carry on that tradition after today's performance.
(she looks bloody amazing)

noddyholder · 12/11/2013 14:07

Retro I wasn't commenting on her age just how orange she looked

OrlandoWoolf · 12/11/2013 14:08

Whenever DS is in my bed (which he sometimes goes to if he's poorly), he has an ability to stretch out sideways and almost take up half the bed. So that's when he gets lifted back to his bed.

bundaberg · 12/11/2013 14:08

retro "Also Peaches said APers are showing their babies that they love them thus inferring that those that think it's a crock clearly don't."

false logic.

if i say all dalmatians are black and white that doesn't mean that no other dog can be black and white.

APers are showing their babies they love them. That is a fact
That does NOT mean that other parents are not showing their babies they love them

SmallMechanicalBrain · 12/11/2013 14:09

Peaches came across very well I thought, and looked amazing.

KH comes across as a sad old trollop who has nothing better to do but be a bitch.

Retropear · 12/11/2013 14:09

Your I hate it too but not as much as my dc.Last time I dragged an ill child in with me to monitor after 10 minutes he begged to be allowed to go back to his own bed.

We all move a lot when sleeping.Aside from that I snore and all of us get too hot if there are more than 2 in one bed.

They even hated it as babies,they love to stretch out.Could be a multiples thing.Perhaps fter 9 months of being squashed together like sardines they value space when sleeping.
