Greetings all,
I have some wonderful news to share with you all. Those of you who follow me on Twitter (thank you) are surely already aware - after two years of trying, my beautiful partner is finally pregnant. We are so overjoyed and happy - we have yet to share the special news with our families and friends. I felt that I should share this wonderful thing with my kith and kin on tothehometree first.
We have sat down and talked about it and we have decided to raise the child according to Na'vi ways. The child will be taught Na'vi philosophy and Na'vi history, Na'vi ideaologies and the Na'vi faith system. My partner does not identify as a Na'kin herself, but she supports me in my feelings and beliefs and as such agrees that this is the correct and right thing to do. I cannot wait to teach our child about Eywa and the beauty of living as one with nature. My partner did put her foot down at the dressing our child in blue clothes and turning down the heating so that their skin has a light blue tinge, however, and on reflection I agree that this was not a good idea. When they are old enough, I will show them the film and show them where I came from and where I lived before living on this planet.
At any rate, please wish us all the best on our journey as parents. I will be sure to keep you all updated.

noob, you're like one of those people that waves crazily at a rolling camera that's filming someone famous and important in a public area. you're trying to get in on this - thing - and look cool by having commented and ripped the Na'vi kin, cool by association and cool by being a dick to someone
newsflash: this guy is a troll, you're an idiot, stop trying to get in on something like a noob on a bandwagon.

Would you raise your child to be Na'vi or teach them about the Na'vi?

Serious question:How did you live on a planet, before this life, that does not actually exist, and was not actually known to anyone until this movie came out last December?
Never mind, I found my answer.

Turning down the heat to make your child's skin turn blue for what.... OH YEAH TO LOOK LIKE A FAKE CHARACTER FROM A MOVIE. :V
Hello child abuse.

Do not force them to be a vegan. Eating meat is part of nature. Respect it.
Eywa is not a conscious being, merely a name for the energy that flows and connects everything. Understand that or he becomes a member of the murderous cult with the death of 7.2billion people in it's name: religion.
As far as the blue skin thing goes; no. Absalutely not. Don't dye it and be careful about naming.
Furthermore, DONT RAISE HIM TO BELEIVE YOURE FROM ANOTHER PLANET IF YOU WANT TO KEEP HIM!!!! YOU FUCKING MORON THAT IS A VERY BAD IDEA!!! Tell him where your ideaology came from but not you. You came from a human vagina. No alternotive way of putting it.
Meat.
It's been proven actually that people who eat it are in better sync with nature than those who don't because they know all aspecs of it.
Not just the butterflys and rainbows part hippies know.
Not everything will get along. Fact.
Any more advice from a kid who has learned this on my own, my msn is owndapwn@hotmail.com
enjoy.

I see you and herein declare my undying love for you.

I say go for it. Raise your baby this way. It's better than the people that raise their kids to become racists and sexists and all out jerks. Congratulations on the baby and I wish you both the best.
