That is hilarious …

My child puts me in these types of situations so often, I’ve have panic attacks when I take him out for a dinner, or lunch for the two of us at a diner …

Great post …

Can you believe what people think they have the right to say? Why couldn’t she just say “thank you” than be rude. There is a place for snark, (but this wasn’t one of them), don’t get me wrong, but rude, uh, uh, sistah.

It didn’t happen to me, but a former neighbor (still friends) of ours had DCFS called on her, because she patted her child to help scoot the rugrat into her seat. Because of that call, she had to spend several hours explaining that she is not a bad parent and that she does not abuse her children.

Oh and yelling is kind of a prerequisite in our house. Six kids.

I’ve been lucky. I haven’t overheard or had anyone say anything to my face regarding the way I parent my children. There’s still time though…

Jenny, please write a book for the greater good of womankind. A big, long, thick book with your mind poured right into it so that I can laugh whenever I want to, day or nite, electricity or not…even sitting in the bathroom, or library as I call it. You are hilarious and I can’t get enough.

Musings nailed it. Yep. So, my lovely spouse criticizes my parenting all the time, does that count? Once my MIL accused me of intentionally exposing my children to Muslim culture as they were apparently bowing to Mecca. They were 3 and 5 and were mimicking a Disney movie they watched with YOUR kids, Alladin. I told her I didn’t know anyone Muslim but if I did I wouldn’t shelter them from another culture so they would not get, oh, I don’t know…PARANOID like her!!!

I would’ve like to tell her: “Oh, just like my child knows that being a self-righteous bitch would NEVER fly in OUR home.”

Just move to the south….everyone yells at their kids here.lol It’s pretty normal. You are so much nicer than I am. Cause that lady would have gotten an ear full from me. Cause She was a liar! Plus the fact not everyone responds to water the same way. I myself am not a big fan of it, so I am so there with Lucy. I would have screamed my a@#$ off too! Poor baby!
