A couple quick items today ... the pile of stuff to address is shrinking, so let me know if I'm missing anything significant. A couple of weeks ago, Greg at DaddyTypes flagged this Salon article, which is kind of bashing attachment parenting. But what it is really doing is bashing a certain kind of "tsk tsk" parenting attitude in which anyone not doing what you're doing is screwing up their kid. A couple of days later, Greg put up a request for comments from attachment parenting dads. This all got me thinking, not so much about attachment parenting, but about the one-upsmanship of parenting. Are dads less likely to engage in that sort of tsk tsk judgment?

Also: another Texas at-home dad story. Bonus points, as always, for quote Kyle Pruett, who is rumor to be back at the convention this year. (More on the convention -- scheduled for Nov. 19 -- next month.)
