Diaper-schmiaper

Posted April 26, 2006 at 6:00 am by Jessica

citizent-times.com talks to parents that think nakie butt is blissful butt. These parents do not use diapers for their infants (or use them rarely), it’s not just disposable diapers they poo poo, they don’t even use cloth diapers. No diapers at all. We’re talkin’ bona fide butt whisperers.

When new mom Kari Richmond purchased a training potty for her 7-month-old son, Isaac, a few weeks ago, dad Matthew Richmond admitted to being a bit surprised.

“I thought she was being a little ambitious,” he said. “But then when she explained the concept to me, I thought it made perfect sense.”

The concept is reducing the amount of diapers her son uses by practicing what adherents call “elimination communication.”

Basically, baby runs around, or crawls around, butt naked and mother (and/or father?) forms a bond so gargantuan and free from any outside factors, that they instinctively know when baby has to take a piss or a dump. They set them on the crapper until they go, singing the infant’s praises because they’re so innately in tune with their offspring. After this little defiance of logic, they read a book about self enlightenment to pass the time between ongoing baby revelations and affinities.

I just have one request in light of all this, “Send me your huggies coupons! I’d be happy to take ‘em off your hands!”
