[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is her kid like?

I have found that FTM of easy, low-energy children can be judgey about active, more boisterous children. [/quote]

Agreed.  There can be a real lack of compassion and understanding.  Some moms are very judgey and ignorant.[/quote]

eh, we all have our crosses to bear.  In a year that quiet, easy going two year old might be the three year old who is too terrified to go on the pumpkin patch rides...while the boisterous, up for anything kid (and his mom) are having a blast.[/quote]

Thanks for this PP- I have the high energy kid who I have to be all over. I am the mom in the grocery store physically putting kids back in the cart, making sure they aren't trying to climb all over while I turn my back for 2 seconds. The ones who climb over the couch for fun and who I have to make sure don't do it at anyone else's house. Its exhausting, and sometimes I get frustrated that my kids are the types who dump out ALL crayons, toys, blocks, whatever first before playing or refuse to sit for dinner, etc when my friends kids never seemed to push back on anything at these ages. But then I try to remember that there are positives that might come with it too.[/quote]

I remember one day I was sitting outside a large government building feeling pretty exhausted with my newborn napping in the stroller and my 2 year old running up and down the large, wide steps of that building.  A lady began to walk up to me and I assumed that she was about to scold me for allowing my son to run about like that on the steps.  Instead she smiled and said - "My son used to be just like that! Your son so much reminds me of the way my son used to play - all that running around!  My boy graduated from med school last spring."
