your voice has been herd and still i remain adornment that whether a professional or a mother its down to common sense... clearly no excuse in the book can change that fact that a child is a child and not a TEEN or WOMAN. I did not intend on defending myself but as it has it, clearly this i what im having to do!!!!!
it is IMO imoral and once again NO excuse in the book would allow me as a FATHER and a PROFESSIONAL to do either my own daughters nails or the client that inquired
as i said its nice to see people that agree with me
weather a mother takes the child to either the nss or a professional the answer should be the same, with the nss as well as professional and that is quite simply NOOO! :lick:
I could comment on so many of the replies that followed my own first one... however.... I'm choosing only this one.
Let's get one thing clear.
IT'S NOT IMMORAL to do a child's nails.
Look up the word in the dictionary folks. Learn what it means before you toss it around, making judgements and insulting your fellow professionals.
(Herd is a group of animals, "heard" is past tense of hear. I also think you meant "adamant" and not adornment. You might want to read up on those words too)
I NEVER used the word "Immoral", so please don't assume that we are on the same wavelength, because judging from that reply, we aren't by a long shot.
AND FOR ANOTHER
This is a PROFESSIONAL FORUM.
I am downright disgusted by the insults being tossed around (not only this post).
People are entitled to live as they choose and do as they like so long as they harm none.
It's not our place to judge their lives.
If we were all the same, the world would be a very boring place.
While we may not all agree on everything, NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT to bear judgement upon another.
So put down your gavel. No one named you the judge.
AND ON ANOTHER NOTE:
As a former biter myself, and having broken one of my daughter's of the habit when she was 3, AND as a PROFESSIONAL who has reformed some biters... I KNOW that the older one gets, the harder it is to break the habit AND I've seen what YEARS AND YEARS of biting can do to nails... it's NASTY.
So for the record, I am on the side of the PROFESSIONAL who is there to oversee EVERYTHING EVERY SINGLE DAY who wishes to save her daughter from the heartache of permanently damaged nails and etc.
Short enhancements to break a BAD AND DIRTY HABIT can hardly be compared to stilletoe shoes and mini-skirts, so get a grip.
I'm going off to bed before I start hurtling insults of my own because I'm truly very disgusted by the behaviour I have witnessed in this thread.
It's one thing to DISCUSS AND DEBATE ideas and opinions.
It's quite another to attack site members and insult them.
It's like a pack of rabid 12yr olds gone mad. (WHOOPS did I insult someone?)
