Give me a break!!! All you need to know is "The View" and "Survivor" to know that this lady is an embarrassment, and not fit to distribute parenting tips. What I find most disingenuous about her comments is not what she says she did, but how she says it. The entire blog screams absentee parenting, so suddenly she's mother of the year because she takes her kid to the theater? Or is it that she has the perfect Marriage because they went and saw Rascal Flats? OR are we all really just so gushed up that she received the greatest gift? While our blogger may be a little over the top (Where else do you take the kids if not a Disney Musical) his indignation at the pure B.S. is 100% correctly directed at "Lissy". At least our blogger here doesn't pimp out his children.

Wow, what a nasty post. I am most assuredly not a Hasselbeck fan, but it seems a bit much to come down on a mother who took her 3 year old to a Disney production and enjoyed spending time with her daughter.

As Brett Singer has two children according to the Babble bio, it's hard to understand how he could be so vicious about a mother of a newborn being pleased to have a little time out alone with her older child -- to announce that in order to have one on one time with her daughter she has to be in a dark room with many other people is both unreasonable and insulting.

I'm all for pointing out the absurdity in the world, but the only absurdity is why Babble allowed such a mean-spirited, uninformed, badly reasoned posting.

Come on, new blogger. Do better than this.

Weird logical leaps and bizarre extremist statements are this guy's forte. Awesome addition to the blogroll, Strollerderby. I'm guessing it will be best for both of us if I just ignore his posts from now on.

I agree with all these comments. Get your facts right. Calm down a bit. Sure, she's annoying, but Geez, you sounds like you have a crush on her in Jr. High.

Did you just have a hard time coming up with a subject to write about? Sorry if this seems a blunt, but I figure, by your entry, you can take it.

Wow, that was harsh. I think I'd rather be a 3rd string guy than a mean blogger.

There are lots of good reasons to dislike Elisabeth Hasselbeck, but the ones listed above are pretty ridiculous. I went to a production of Othello, that my sister was in, with my son when he was 4 weeks old because I knew he would either be sleeping or nursing the whole time. He never made a peep, however I still got dirty looks on the way in because people assumed that he would be disruptive. Every child is different, but a parent knows if their child can be still and quiet for an extended period of time.

I wouldnt mind being a 3rd string quarterback. You dont get hit. Dont get hurt. You crank out hundreds of thousands for HOLDING.A.CLIPBOARD.

nice work if you can get it.

Yes, the woman IS annoying...however, the particular incident is not annoying. She's recently had a baby and likely her toddler (not an infant) is feeling a little left out, so they did a little mama-daughter date. Nothing wrong with that!

Yeah... who's three. Who exactly is The Little Mermaid, the musical, pitched at if not small children? I imagine when her three year old wasn't in her lap, she was in her own seat. I've got to say, as a theatre professional, I urge you to take your children to the theatre. Perhaps Hamlet is inappropriate for a three year old, but Disney musicals? Have at it people. It'd be great if more people experienced the arts.
