Hi.
We're now into a good few months placement and our family are not understanding we will do best for our children or agree with the parenting techniques we use.
It feels that they're unable to see past the children from care label and unable to see that we have to parent in a way to correct behaviours developed during birth family. They also make us upset and its just an added pressure of stress and upset we don't need during our adoption journey.
They're even disagreeing in situations when social services have given us blessing, calling us bad parents and demanding we speak to them about the way we parent.
How have you handled the comments made by people who only see a small snapshot of your day and are quick to judge?
