We're all flawed and nuanced and when people share some of our philosophies, it doesn't mean that they are just like us. The people I've disagreed with most have made me think the most and hone my own philosophies and beliefs. The world would be a terrible and boring place if everyone was just like us.

Very true. But when it comes to Ezzo, I've seen people who use it "sensibly" (if you can call it that) and I've seen people not feed a hungry newborn because it wasn't 2.5 hours and the same baby end up in the hospital for testing because of lack of weight gain, quite probably FTT. I don't want them to be just like me...I just want them to feed their poor baby.

ETA: Maybe I'm a little raw regarding Ezzo right now...
