32JAMIE, sorry for your accident and glad that you have time on your hands, because you made me laugh today with your comments. A speedy recovery too you!!!
Nice to see this child in something other than sleeveless in the New England cold.
Endora, are you sitting next to Callie? Why comment? And as to these people being beautiful, talented, special and successful?? Special?? Wow, your definition of special is different. Oh please know by the way, I was hit head on in a car accident by a drunk driver so I have been bed ridden for about 7 weeks. I stopped to comment because it bugs me when dips like yourself think these people are "special" and they are perfect in everything they do. This comment board is FOR COMMENTS ok? I don't think they are special - sorry. I stopped for 15 minutes and offered my opinion. Some chick had a problem with it - and now you insist I should get a life. Endora - I have a pretty good life, and I make a good salary and I offer to pay for the legal work required to change your name to something normal ok?
Hey Callie, keep your life advice to yourself.
You people are so funny, It's amazing how much time you spend here giving opinions as if you were all experts or god on a lousy chair, pointing their fingers. Check this... They are all beautiful, talented, special and succesful,,, They don't have a second to read or care about your lousy loser opinions. That't s why They are in the magazines and You are all sitting in your dark rooms typing. Get a life!!
This is a celebrity "fluff" magazine, so why are some of you giving parenting advice? I am sure some of you aren't the most perfect parents. None of you know Tom or Katie, so please move on with your life.
I agree exactly Speedy. Memyselfand I must not care about the damage done to teeth and the mouth from them. As we pointed out what damage it can do she simply said "insurance will take care of that" like it was not a big deal at all. To most of us it IS a big deal. You are right that the child is not disciplined enough IF she is AT ALL. I would not have sit and just watched her misbehave I'd have told them to do something about their daughter behaving that way. My kids know how to behave in public and ALL children should know how to behave in public!!! It says ALOT about someones parenting skills when their children act like animals in public or run around like they are on a chocolate high. Like I said before letting a child "grow" out of those things is showing how LAZY a parent is. So lazy that they do not want to deal with the tantrums from taking those things away WHEN THEY SHOULD BE TAKEN AWAY! I don't know any good parent that would defend Tom and Katie's parenting skills. Only people who would are those that are lazy enough to let their child "grow" out of those things. Not to mention they allow her to wear heels!! She will have bunions soon enough I'm sure. Why inflict that kind of pain on a child? Oh that is right I forgot... they are to lazy to be a parent and allow the child to do everything she wants..
Note to Mylife: Can I have yours? Because honestly I can't ever find a time in my pathetic life where I can interject and have absolutely nothing to contribute but still come off like a total witch. These comment boards aren't for brain surgery so why is someone of your high mensa intelligence reading them? Does everyone in your house spell correctly so you have to go elsewhere to put people down? I think when the lady (I presume it was a lady) say concurrent theme, I believe she was connecting subjects that were being discussed like Suri's bottle drinking, her high heels and parenting techniques. These weren't recurring more than they were concurrent - themes connecting by a common topic. But honestly, I'd love your life - it sounds like such fun, my dear. I love the my-dear especially, just arrogant enough so as to sound like you got something better to do.
LOL I just read all this - can I just address the last comment?? you think they don't ask to have their picture taken? They manipulate the press ALL THE TIME!! They are certainly posed shots, do you honestly think Tom has paps "sneaking" in the bushes?? Get real! She is thriving?? What is your definition of thriving?? She sucks on a bottle?? That is not my definition of thriving. As for each parent having different ways of raising their kids? I think each parent has a set of "rules" they follow - and add their own twist. I think the twist is what all these postings are about. Isn't the original issue that Suri is not parented very well by this pair? I don't know if she is - I think the whole situation is goofy - I think the kid should be disciplined more, I ate in a restaurant where they were and the kid runs around like crazy, my kids never did that because they knew how to behave. She drank from a bottle and this was just a bit ago - a nipple is not conducive to good teeth and it really damages the roof of a kid's mouth but I guess the person below me is interested in defending her position that parents should let kids "grow" out of that. I think if the child is in charge, sure go ahead - if you want to be afraid of their tantrums go ahead and let them "grow out of that"...but to assert that the pictures of Tom and Katie and their progeny aren't posed is just plain NAIVETE!! These guys are master manipulators of the press. I find this issue interesting though, most women don't admit flaws and are so celebrity obsessed they never utter a negative word about celebs and their kids. Hats off to you ladies..but I wouldn't be caught dead defending the parenting techniques of Tom and Katie Cruise
People, please get a life. Most of you cannot spell to save your lives..... etc, concurrent theme? Don't you mean recurrent theme? And how about high hills, they're called high heels, my dear. And this is because I spent only 2 seconds reading a word here a word there. I will not waste my time reading nonsense. Really, get a life!
They didn't ask for their picture to be taken with their daughter. These aren't posed shots. These are shots of them living their daily life taken by people who stalk their every move. Suri is thriving and looks very happy and comfortable with her parents...the perfect sign that she is loved. You're right a lot of parents don't step up to the task of being a parent and I feel bad for the kids that are born into that...as they are innocent and can't chose who they are born to. But a lot of parents are doing what they can....including the ones that shove their kids in daycare because they have to work to save their house. We live in tough times and we shouldn't judge(isn't that your word) the decisions they have to make. Each parent has different ways of raising their kids, we don't have to agree that's the beauty of it.
Love is the most important thing - agreed. But its proven scientifically that pacifiers and bottles are bad for children after two. While I send you my copy of raising the perfect child, why don't you send me a copy of your dentist's educational background because if he hasn't told you what a bottle and pacifier does to the mouth he should be reported to the ADA and please, while your kids are forced to take your medical diagnosis of their teeth (you doubt they will have problems, where did you go to school?) I don't have to believe you. And for you to cavalierly toss off that dental insurance will take care of your mistakes..oye, you are a special one. But most important, I don't see that both of her parents love her - I see that both parents like to have their picture taken with her and buy her things. You are the one griping about how I don't know them - how do you know how much love there is in that house? Would the girl be on a bottle still if things were truly rosy? Parents are supposed to do the best they can but alot don't. Alot shove their kids off into daycare every single day. Alot don't pay attention to their kids, using them as trophies and picture props. But to just make a big sweeping generalization is just naive. There are too many hungry and starving kids in this world for you to make such an outlandish presumption. But hey, if its a problem I'm sure insurance will take care of it right?
my god, you guys have A LOT of time on your hands. It's all fun and games till someone types wayyyyy tooooo much!!!!!!! HOLY CRAP.......oh and Suri is a beautiful girl and I think the only person who should be "telling" Kate how to parent......is Kate!
Yes LOVE is the most important thing but so if your childs health. You can ask any doctor AND dentist they will tell you to have your kids off the bottle and pacifiers by age 2 but they prefer before than. No doctor will tell you to keep your child on it as long as the child wants. That is what I mean by LAZY PARENTS. A parent that don't want to deal with the tantrums from taking those things away from children TO OLD FOR THEM. Actually most of the time those DO cause problems with teeth AND the mouth. The roof of the mouth will not form properly if a child constantly has one of those things in his/her mouth thru toddler years. I am not saying they are lazy by parenting a "different way" theyu are lazy by not doing things for the child that NEED to be done and that are recomended to be done by doctors! No children are perfect just as no adults are perfect and with all of the things going around that we as parents CAN NOT prevent our child from getting why not stop them from getting the things we CAN prevent? I'm sure they didn't brush her gums after her bottle before bed either considering she is still on one they probley did what lots of parents do and that is put the baby to bed with a bottle of formula in it's mouth. Did you know THAT rots their teeth? Breast milk and formula both rot babies teeth before they come in if their gums aren't brushed after bottles. Another reason doctors say don't put kids to bed with a bottle... Even toddlers going to bed with a bottle filled with anything but WATER will end up with rotted teeth. I'm not sure any good parent would want their children having rotted teeth! The doctors and dentists give us these guidlines to help us be good parents for reasons!
Key word Mrs. Boyd.....is CAN.....not will ...but can hurt the teeth. My kids have a great bite and their teeth are just fine. And if they have issues later on in life (which I doubt they will) then dental insurance will cover that. There are LOTS of things that CAN hurt your kids. Do you keep your kids in a bubble. I think it's funny how everyone classifies parents as lazy because they chose to parent in a different way. I'm sorry Jamie and Mrs. Boyd...can you forward me a copy of the manual that came with your perfect children. Like I said in my first post. Each parent does the best they can. Some do it better than others but it doesn't mean the other parents are wrong. Only time will tell how your kids will turn out. Suri will grow up with love....as you can see that both of her parents love her and to me....love is the most important thing for a child.
I agree with Jamie. A bottle and pacifiers at that age can do damage to the teeth as well as the roof of the mouth. THAT is WHY doctors want you to start getting them OFF them at a young age! She is also correct on the word judgment. Parents these days are way to lazy and are trying to hard to befriend their kids than parent them... NEWS FLASH PEOPLE your children will meet friends in school YOU ARE THEIR PARENT ACT LIKE ONE. Just my opinion.
So I guess you understand that judgment and choice are the same thing and society has distorted the meaning of judgment. I mean, do you raise your kids to judge a social situation so they aren't caught up in something uncomfortable or illegal? If so, aren't you raising your kids to be judgmental? Guess so. And putting on clothes to go outside is making a choice or a judgment isn't it? Yes it is. Oh well. And sorry, didn't have to give my kids pacifiers, they didn't need the distraction. I think your doctor probably didn't fill you in on the distortion of the teeth and the bite the pacifier causes. You can say it didn't happen with your daughter...of course you will say that...but pacifiers are needless distractions and the reason most kids still have them in their mouths is their parents don't want to deal with the consistent training that is required to break the habit. Just like the bottle..it would require consistency and there will be tantrums but lazy parents don't want to deal with that. And please Me, the "stuff" I've written makes really solid sense because mothers have been raising kids for generations with the same values. It took this generation of parents who focus on being friends with their kids rather than parenting them to set-back parenting years. And by the way, since you don't know me either, please don't assume I am making things up (didn't use your cr*p word..didn't need to lower myself) and never said I was perfect. I just said the kid needs a parent. And I think its obvious that she does.
Who said she was a super mom? Jamie you have no idea what you are talking about. Making crap up, that barely even makes sense. I don't know what kind of mother she is, because I DON'T KNOW HER, and neither do YOU. Another thing, I don't doubt that Katie makes mistakes, just like we all do, including you.
I've looked at a dictionary many times over...no need to look at it again. And yes normal parents will do the best they can. If their kids never want to get dressed in their own home....so be it. Going out in public is a different story. I don't think that Katie is a super-mom by any means...but then again I don't think that any mom is a super-mom... we all make mistakes and we all have bad days. WE do the best we can for our children. Clothes, heels...etc are just things that she likes...no big deal. The heels crack me up. If you look at the pictures they aren't even that high off the ground. My daughter has flip flops that are that elevated. She likes shoes....so what. My daughter likes dogs. The bottle....doesn't bother me either....she'll give it up, when she's ready. My kids had paci's until they were almost 3. The doctor asked me my plan on getting rid of them and I told him...before they go to college. I also breastfeed them long after they were a year old. It's nobody's business what they do with their child. They are the celebrities not their daughter. She's just living her life.
actually you should go to the dictionary and judgement is defined as a choice. Its society that has put the onus on the word "judgement" because its supposed to be bad. And please, you do what you think is best?? What if someone thinks its best never to dress their child?? We live in a society for pete's sake people. You need to realize that first of all and just because this chick is a celebrity, doesn't automatically make her super-mom. So she can buy nice clothes, that doesn't automatically make her gorgeous or her child adorable. I personally make the choice to question anyone who can't take a bottle away from a 3-year old or someone who is so vain that they put their daughter in high heels at 3..and then there's the one where the 3-year old is in a sleeveless dress and its 40 degrees outside but Mommy is following her with a blankie---I witnessed this episode on the streets of NYC.
