[quote=Anonymous]I’ll be honest I have a “good kid.” People compliment his behavior all the time. His friend’s parents love to have him over and he gets a ton of good citizenship awards at school and stuff. Even my IL’s have directly said “you (DH and myself) did such a good job raising him!” I honestly think it’s mostly luck. He was so hard as a newborn and a baby/young toddler, and also had some physical health issues, but then he mellowed out completely after he turned 2. I don’t know. I didn’t do any of the recommended intensive parenting stuff. Didn’t breastfeed, didn’t make his baby food, didn’t do cloth diapers, didnt co-sleep or bed share, and he went to day care until his health situation and my work situation became untenable then I started SAH. He just really is a good, nice kid and I consider myself extremely lucky. His brother has autism so he’s a little more complicated, but nothing much we can do about that and people like having him around too as long as they’re aware of and prepared for his specific quirks and needs.
