What? No helmet?

Post by MajGenl.Meade »

Shona Carter-Brooks from Tennessee walked down the aisle with her 1-month-old daughter attached to the tulle of her wedding dress. And, of course, media outlets are having a heyday. A writer for the Daily Mail said, "Something olde, something new, something borrowed and something ... you should never do?"

Buzzfeed also used the common wedding-day phrase, saying: "I guess she found her 'something new.'" And The Week's headline on the story read, "Here comes the bride (with a baby attached to the train of her wedding dress?!)"

Carter-Brooks took to Facebook to defend her actions after some users called her walk down the aisle classless and dangerous. A status she posted said "People questioning what we do, commenting all negative ... Our 1 month old was awake and well secured on my train."

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

It certainly must be a drag to have her for a mother...

I can see how you could make this safe and painless for the child, but I don't see how you get around the incredibly tacky part... :roll:

I 100% agree with LJ!

Carrying the baby down the aisle? Sure! Dragging her? Tacky!!

Well beyond tacky, IMHO.
