To unfriend her?

I have an old friend on my fb who has recently had her first child. Lovely lady and gorgeous little boy. She's massively into attachment parenting and is very much into sharing (or normalising as she calls it) lots of photos of her breastfeeding, co sleeping, babywearing and so on with long captions about how it's the best way to parent.

All fine, her choice. But lately her posts have become a bit more aggressive and she's now basically slagging off any differing parenting style to her own - example you're a 'dick' if you don't at least try feeding. Controlled crying is 'heartless and cruel' I mean come on. Why can't people just parent their own kids in their own way without shouting it from the rooftops and slagging off others?!

Might unfriend her. Aibu?

If she is a valued friend maybe just ignore it for the time being. I have a friend like. That I just laugh and ignore it. If it's really bothering you then unfriend xx

YANBU to unfollow, mute or hide her - I did the same for a couple of 'Younique' type (and the like) sellers among my Facebook friends as I found their approach as aggressive in their approach to selling their products as your Facebook friend appears to be about her style of parenting!
