I agree that sometimes we don't get the help that is requested, although the thread you are referring to was rather controversial. However, I too have asked for help and got opinions that were not helpful. Once I explained my situation, no one was willing to answer my question.
We don't live in a perfect world, and everyone on here loves their babies, that's why they are here, Everyone here says that the site is for good advice, but then why can't we get it sometimes?
