[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you ever say anything that could be considered complaining about your DD? If not, "I don't know why you're offering unsolicited advice, but what we're doing works for our family, so the criticism from someone who's not our pediatrician is not helpful." If you have, "Look, it may sound as though we aren't happy about not being able to X/having to X, but parenthood takes some adjustments, and they're a small price to pay for how great the experience is and the knowledge that we're doing right by our daughter. So please stop with the unsolicited advice, because it makes enjoy spending time with your less."[/quote] It tends to come up when we are planning stuff together or spending time together, and I try to explain why we can't do certain things - like stay out til 10 or 11 at night with the kids.
