[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Terrible parent here who does not physically force my toddler to do things. (if DD doesn't want something, she will force she issue by repeatedly taking off the clothing).

OP, I have found that DD complies with certain things at certain times especially if they happen at the same time every day. I always get her dressed as soon as she wakes up when she is too groggy to fight it. I do her hair as she eats her breakfast because that seems to work for us. My tip is find the particular point in the morning when your child will allow you to dress them without a fight.[/quote]

Wow you have never changed your kid's diaper against their will? Buckled them in their car seat when they don't want to be? You truly are a terrible parent. He admit it![/quote]

lol clearly this is a sensitive issue for you. Yes I have done some of these things, particularly when it was a safety issue, but usually I try to find an alternative because she is surprisingly strong and I have some physical limitations (yeah, you're an a-hole, btw). Forcing her into her car seat is often impossible or causes a lot of pain, so I have developed alternative strategies to get her to comply. Occasionally it means bribing her with a snack that she needs anyway but I've realized if I sit in the drivers seat and tell her we can't go anywhere until she gets into her seat, she sits. There is a middle ground between physically forcing a child to do something (which for some families is simply not effective for a variety of reasons) and letting them run wild.[/quote]

So...you do use physical force when necessary. But shamed the rest of us who do, insinuating you would never do that. Then called me an a-hole do what exactly? Am I supposed to mind read your have physical limitations?

You're an arrogant hypocrite. Yeah, people like you do push my buttons. Mommy martyrs who assume they are better than everyone else but are actually just lying to themselves. [/quote]

JFC you're aggressively hurling insults at people and wondering why they call you an "a-hole"?[/quote]

If calling out a self-righteous, mommy shaming liar makes me an a-hole I'll wear that proudly. [/quote]
