[quote=Anonymous]Yes, both friends and family for us, it's been very disappointing. What really gets me is the smugness and self-assuredness. If they could only walk in our shoes, how quickly would they realize what obnoxious jerks they are being? One of the worst offenders is my sister-in law and husband. We have three children, one with SN, they just recently had their first child, and almost immediately started feeling more emboldened to criticize our parenting of and choices for SN child. They are "gentle parenting." Their kid runs around totally without structure or discipline. We're not the disciplinarian types, but holy moly that kid. But my point is we don't say a peep about their choices, and instead get all this smugness rained down on us about how amazing their parenting choices are and no doubt our SN child wouldn't have the challenges they do if they had only been raised in miracles of gentle parenting.[/quote]
