This isn't a personal situation but one a friend is going through, I think ill probably go through the same with my SIL. I'm 20 weeks and she has a 9 month old. Anyway my friend is quite keen that her dd eats healthy and her dd loves fruit, I mean I have never seen a kid ask for fruit as much as her. She was out with a friend at 10.30, her friend had taken sweets for her children - one of which same age as friend - 5yo. She offered some to my friends dd and she looked at my friend as if to ask, my friend said no its too early, dd was fine, she just had some pineapple. Then her friend said you make me feel like such a bad mother!!!! IMO I think that's rude to say, you can't expect someone to change their beliefs to suit you and not make you feel uncomfortable.
How would you react to someone saying this to you? Or have you been in the other position?
