[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not the mama bear instinct that’s weird, or thinking a kid is a behavioral nightmare or mean, it’s the [b]maintaining outside of the heat of the moment that she hates a little child and the she’s certain the “dead eyed” girl will remain a b1tch for life[/b]. Apparently there are lots of you who think like that but there are many of us who don’t! [/quote] +1. And honestly the sympathy I felt for OP at the start of the thread has begun to wane after reading her subsequent responses.[/quote] This. I'm a NP and started to get uncomfortable after a few replies. I'm no saint, but even when it comes to kids I "hate," I can't NOT think about what brought them there and how unlucky they got when it came to parenting or what else they may be going through. That doesn't mean I allow them around my kid or even forgive them, per se, but I'm really uncomfortable essentially calling any child "irredeemable." I don't have to harbor some naive hope about them but nor do I declare that they're monsters who will never change and wish them comeuppance ASAP. My ILs do this regularly to children (unpleasant children, but still!) and it's disturbing. [/quote]
