I have a good friend who has been a great support to me while I've had young children. But one thing she ALWAYS does is comments on what my kids wear. They are nearly 3 and nearly 1, and frankly I am quite pleased with myself if they have clean clothes on, and I have remembered to brush their hair.
She often says, 'ooh, her socks don't match' or 'where did you get that coat from?' (When it's clearly from a charity shop). What should I say? Why does she feel the need to criticise what my kids wear? BTW, she has 2 kids too, and is forever complaining she's knackered and worn out, so she must understand... Should I get grumpy with her, or AIBU?
