Wow! That's really good and beautifully illustrates the pettiness of picking on others' parenting skills.
Right! I am guilty of judging other moms sometimes (note previous post's comment about the mom who stopped breastfeeding because of her shirts) but this is a good reminder and I'm *trying* to work on it.
And, really, the shirts might just have been an excuse that she was willing to share. It might be that not wanting to breastfeed made her feel like . . . a bad mother.
Rebecca (Always Chaos Around Our House), if you stop by here, I want to let you know that I can't leave comments on your blog and it's frustrating me! Please rest assured that I often *want* to comment, but I can't get the comments window to open up for me.
