I had a quick search through my Pros-Lit files and couldn't find the discussion, though I found a few other people using the term "infantalise"... oh see, I've automatically spelled it that way again... clear my fingers also think it looks right! *g* I looked up "infanticide" in the dictionary too - and that's also spelled with an "i". (And then I forgot to come here and say all this, cos I did it yesterday, just after I read your comment... *headdesk*)

But I think that was where Nell Howell posted most, so maybe my search-fu just isn't working...

I was always sorry that I seemed to have just missed the time of long discussions on Pros-Lit... though we've had some good discussions here on lj too! Why is it that I suspect they can't say the same about Tumblr...?!

I would almost believe in your dissertation, except that I think we've talked about that sort of time in your life before... *vbg*
