My ds (2yo) has recently been poorly with a cold & then ended up quite spotty which the gp told me was a post viral infection. We both pick up germs quite easily, which is quite normal in most households..
This time last year he picked up that nasty hand, foot and mouth virus.
Anyhow on the phone to my mother last night & she said she cant understand why ds is always so ill, it didn't happen when bro, sis & I were young, maybe I should clean my house more.
When ds picked up hand, foot and mouth last year she told me to stop taking him to his toddler groups as there's obviously 'chavvy types' infecting everyone with there germs (her words, not mine)
On another occasion I was on the phone to her & ds was crying loudly as it was his bedtime, apparently she didn't sleep all night through worry! I told her ALL children cry when they're tired, why be so over sensitive
She's said a lot more daft stuff, too long to list!
I really do need to say to her 'Do you mean to be so rude' don't I??
