I am normally pretty secure, sensible and level headed. I am amazed therefore at how angry I am when ever any of my family make comments about my 9.5 month old DS. For example
" you are cruel not letting him have cake " " my DD didn't know what a TV was until she was 2" "hasn't he got any gloves to wear " etc etc
I know it probably sounds petty but these sort of comments make me want to slap people. I know this is probably coming from me getting used to being a parent and deep down I do think I am doing a good job. How can I develop a thicker skin and stop feeling so undermined ? does this come with time ?
