    Thanks for sharing that video! I don't put much stock in what celebrities say, but I am guilty of buying into a lot of marketing that's out there. Specifically, I always thought that organic foods were free of pesticides or healthier. I'm disappointed that they aren't, but also kind of relieved now that I don't have to spend extra money on things that actually don't make a difference.

    As a new parent, I also want to say that I hate all of this fear that if we do things one way and not another, or if we fail to buy something, we are being negligent or we don't care about our kids. Other than meeting their basic needs and vaccinating, there really are so few things that will ultimately matter.

    As many of my very tech/geek friends move into parenthood (and as someone who has recently seen a summary of the really weird claims some celebrities have made), I find this to be a refreshing video. Women with tech careers (who happen to be moms) sit around and debunk a bunch of really silly celebrity science.

    edit: I was honestly a little disappointed when I found out via this video that Sarah Michelle Gellar spoke out against GMOs.
