i agree! i just read the "other" post this person made about throwing thier baby out because of crying. and after reading that entire post it just proves the point that using this term is not good! she bought a yorkie for 5000 dollars because a friend said it was a "teacup" and because it is "cute"! and yet she doesn't know anything about the breed! or even took the time to educate herself about these babies! now because she's loosing sleep she treats her like crap! sorry but i do not feel bad for anyone. i agree people shouldn't pm eachother just do it out in the open, i have no problem with saying anything out in the open to anyone. especially when it comes to the safety of these babies! i am in an uproar about this, if the post about her throwing the baby out isn't enough to convince that "teacup" is not a very good word then i don't know what will convince people.
