Dear sir,
in the article “Importance of parents 1” we do think an answer is given on the matter you mention in your article. We do wonder if you read the article or did not see our response to your feelings.
In case you do not want that we bring our readers to your article we shall not mind to take away the link to your article. Please do let us know and we shall react appropriately straight away.
The intention of the site “Stepping toes” is giving place to many voices about different matters of general interest. For this reason we also like to offer the visitors of our website “Stepping toes” a selection of interesting articles on the net, though we would not always agree with the things written on the presented website.
In case you would have a better look at our articles, when we quote somebody, we like to mention the original place of that writing and let people know where we got the quote from or on what we reacted.
Secondly we also want to offer our readers next to our views some related articles and views from other people on the same subject.

So when the writers of those articles do not like it that we refer to their articles we shall not object to take the links and referrals away.

We shall leave you than on your own to generate your own readers without any of our help, which naturally we understand none of the internet writers or bloggers really need.
