[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a family member who thinks I don't feed or play with my kids unless I've cooked them four courses (including for breakfast) and am in the middle of painting their faces or blowing up a mini- bounce house. Example: my kids are eating cereal with banana and drinking milk. I'm reading the paper. Family member comes in and says "aren't you going to give them breakfast?" I say no just to watch her pull out the waffle iron, bacon cooker, egg beater, and melon baller so that she can be sure my kids won't starve. Similarly, if I give them crayons and a coloring book and then dare sit down, I'm asked whether I'm going to play with my kids. Not saying this is what OP is doing, but it's worth considering that they just have different ideas about how much effort is required.[/quote] OP here. I'd be thrilled it my sister gave her kids some cereal and a banana. Sadly, that's not what's going on here. [/quote]
