[quote=Anonymous]MIL is Chinese and I have heard that Chinese elder expects younger to accommodate them. For example, when DD was under 6mth old, I was told by DH that when ILs came, we supposed to hand the baby over, not them come over us to ask for holding the baby or pick the baby up. (DH didn't even know that himself, he found out after having a talk with MIL). So as FTM, I am worrying than I am doing something unusual to ILs. I am half Chinese as well but not that extreme or following Chinese culture strictly. I did mention to DH if they want us to follow some kinds of culture rules, gotta let us know because I don't know any of them. And obviously I don't want to cause any difficulties in relationship with ILs so I have been trying to figure out if I was wrong or it is just their problem.

To the feeding issue, yes I am very strict as I try to be best not to have picky eater ( I have seen how much headache it is to have picky eater toddler). I do all I can to get DD to fully self feeding (not just feed herself, I meant to recognize her fullness and eat happily). I have heard forcing will cause food hating, one more bite will cause obesity later in life, etc. Well these are prediction and research and thoughts and every body is different, I know that but hey as a mother we try to do our best for our child. This should be personal thing, thank to PP to understand it.
