how can anyone here stick up for him? he does not need training!! heres how it goes:
Im assuming every day he sees bil feeding their child solids. (unless he is in another room on the pc permanently with his arse welded to the chair, in which case that speaks for itself)?
so he knows that the child is on solids...erm...how could one not know when they live in the same house?
so if he is looking after their child for the day he should understand the basic concept of breakfast, lunch and dinner.
go to cupboard/freezer open jar/tub, heat food. put baby in highchair. spoon food into baby's mouth.
just how hard is that?
no-one gets a parenting manual, heck i wish i'd have been given one. but come on, it's not someone elses 9 month old, its his. he should kow these things.
when i had my first i had never handled a child before, i was the type who wouldnt even pick up someone elses baby for fear of dropping it (like many men ). but even i knew that baby needed feeding...its not the same as a newborn. if your 9 month old is on solids then that's what you give them!
and big, big congratulations to him for managing breakfast. wow. im sorry bil, im not being nasty to you, really im not, but he needs a lesson on his own child. if he truly doesnt know these things then there is something wrong.
