Welcome to Parent_Instinct -

This community is for the parents that just know whats right for their children, despite what society and medical experts say.
This is for those hippy Mommas who love their breastfeeding, cosleeping, baby-wearing ways! Those that prefer to delay vaccinations, or like those cloth diapers.
On society's standards and levels - you're not doing things in the perfect mommy way, but you know whats best for your child and you're doing it!

Community Rules:
No advertising.
Not everyone has the same views - RESPECT THAT. Heated debates are always going to happen when it comes to parenting views, but name calling and flame wars are not going to be tolerated.
If posting pictures or a long post, please keep it behind a cut.
