At playgroup this morning DD (13 months) was happily bumshuffling her way around all the toys and chattering away and pointing at things to show anyone who was near her ...
I was looking on but not actually next to her ...
Anyway, this bloody old woman (a granny of a toddler) pointed very rudely at DD and said in a loud voice, "That baby should be crawling!"
I looked at her and said, "No, that baby should be doing exactly as she wants to ... "
So this woman turned to me and said, "It is a known fact that babies who don't crawl will have learning difficulties!!!"
After staring at her in astonishment I said, "I can assure you that there is nothing wrong with MY baby's development and if there was what business is it of yours?"
I spent the rest of playgroup fuming and ended up leaving early ....
