[quote=Anonymous]Lesson learned. I will never call a baby tiny again. Mea culpa. My kid was hospitalized for FTT and severe intolerance to everything. He was big at birth but steadily lost weight. Comments were mixed: some said he was so big, while others said he was so small. I never flipped out over it. I recognized that people make comments about babies and I don't analyze them or take them personally. I understand being fearful and worried....that was me a few months ago...but I didn't become unhinged by normal comments. Just bc people are stressed or have issues doesn't give them permission to behave badly. My mom has cancer, but that doesn't mean she can bitch at strangers. My former assistant's sister had a brain tumor and my asst cussed out a client bc she was "stressed" and that wasn't ok (but I let it slide and covered for her). We all have things we are dealing with, but most of us do our best to suck it up and act properly when in public. Vent if you like, but b sure to do it behind closed doors.[/quote]
