[quote=Anonymous]You could say something like, "Thanks for showing me how you do it, and I hope it's okay with you if I do some things differently. I think the variety is important for kids but it also helps me not feel like I'm just a poor substitute for their mom when I'm trying to imitate you, but rather a great version of myself who does things a little differently sometimes." Of course for any big issues - particularly food, sleep, and discipline - you'll want to assure them you're interested in strictly following their guidelines, but maybe just letting them know that you're confident and capable and would like to try things out on your own will be enough to help? Sometimes parents don't even realize how many specific details they are unnecessarily sharing.[/quote]
