@georgetakei@universeodon.com The baby book that my mother used for me, and gave me to use for our children (or, probably, just for a laugh[#]) told us to avoid "wicked women" who tell those sorts of stories.

So for us the NCT was referred to as "the wicked women".

[#] My mother did warn me that all baby books were useless, in that the baby wasn't going to behave like the book says they should, on account of the baby hasn't read the book.
