Annoying moms

[Anonymous]

Moms who berated me for formula feeding and then turn around and feed their kids junk food once they get past the milk stage.

moms who still have guilt over making a decision not to BF and can't just be happy and confident with their choices re: formula feeding.

Cats who just about break the skin "kneading" you after jumping into your lap to be petted. Oh wait, sorry, forgot this was about annoying moms.

Moms who automatically assume that formula feeding moms feel guilty for doing so. When they feel no such thing. They really are simply sick and tired about being judged for that decision. The most annoying moms, by far, are the breast feeding purists who look down and judge other moms for not doing the same. Recalling one mom who judged her SIL "Big Time" (her words) for deciding not to BF. As if it is any of her business. You want to EBF, Great. Just leave me the hell alone.

Go ahead, give formula. Millions of yrs of evolution creating the ideal food for our babies is probably NOT as good for them as something created in a boardroom for profit.

My son was a very young preemie and could not suck and my milk never came in. I wish I had the luxury of choice but as it was I was just happy there was something to feed him - i.e. formula. Go ahead and ridicule me if it makes you happy!

So, what are working parents supposed to do? Please do tell.

While I don't agree with the post you're questioning, it clearly targets parents who do not work full-time yet have full-time care.

I agree that's what the post refers to. What I don't get is why the poster cares of another mother has full time care if she doesn't work FT. It's kind of like hiring a mother's helper or a babysitter to watch the child while she gets things done that she needs to (i.e running errands, etc.). So what? Is the poster jealous or something? Perhaps that mother feels her child is more stimulated by one on one time with a sitter (or the social setting of preschool or daycare) than sitting in the car on the way to the dry cleaners or whatever else she needs to do. Either way, it's none of the poster's concern and I don't get why it bugs her.

Just to clarify -- this is my first post in this thread, so I'm not either of the PPs.

What if your spouse is deployed over seas, you have no family or competent friends to help babysit (new to area), and you're at your wit's end (and pregnant) with a house full of little ones?

...it just proves you don't know what goes on behind closed doors.

c'mon we all need a break -but at least the babysitter isn't the tv or a bowl full of junk food.

I'm 12:45 and I agree with you (having done just what the originally quoted poster is complaining about), but there are SAH parents who manage without mother's helpers or babysitters, and I guess they wonder why some of us can't do the same.

Why do we judge or comment on how other's decide to care for their children. I'm a SAHM, no help. My neighbor is a SAHM, with a nanny. My other neighbor works full time and her child goes to daycare. Who cares. We all do what works for us.

MYOB. What about fathers who do the same?

Dads too. I just don't know any who do that.

Really?? Cause all of the fathers I know work full time and have their kids in daycare or with a nanny.
