[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People have survived for thousands of years in unsanitary conditions. And still do today. Don't you think you could relax your standards a bit, OP? Unhelicoptering will benefit both you and your child. Really.[/quote] So if I walked up to your husband and fed him ice cream or cake from my spoon would that not gross you out? If your MIL licked her spoon and then gave it to you to eat from would that be okay? Probably not but it is somehow acceptable because the recipient of salvia laden spoon in this cse is a small child. It is not being a helicopter parent by following common sense and doctor's recommendation. Having standards doesn't mean helicopter parenting.[/quote]
