It's sad that people need to tear you down to make themselves feel better. Whatever works for you & your family is the only thing that matters. Funny that you say parenthood has made you a more confident person since I was just thinking that very thing about myself earlier this week. We're all just doing the best we can!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17662391036247560875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320710263364843875.post-37696323177853425422012-05-13T23:46:38.916-07:002012-05-13T23:46:38.916-07:00I've found that the more children I have, the ...I've found that the more children I have, the more I mellow- in more ways than one. Of course I have mellowed as a mom (like I don't sweat the small stuff anymore...cereal for dinner is great sometimes!) but I've also mellowed as a fellow-mother, in that what works for one might not work for someone else, and we each do what we think is best for our own child. Judge much? I can honestly say that no, I sure don't. Not anymore.Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04446770591516588794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320710263364843875.post-48419017320764279082012-05-11T20:16:43.734-07:002012-05-11T20:16:43.734-07:00I was one of those moms that thought I'd never...I was one of those moms that thought I'd never put my toddler in a two piece suit. What was I thinking?!? Now I only buy two piece bathing suits for Leila because it makes more sense when dealing with diapers.Jen + Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01507257798282313742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320710263364843875.post-32602120863933095342012-05-11T20:06:32.274-07:002012-05-11T20:06:32.274-07:00I have followed ur blog for years...for what i can...I have followed ur blog for years...for what i can see about paprikas swim suit, its a tankini, which i feel is fine & apprpriate..i have 2 daughters, ages 10 & 28...they both did wear bikinis till they were like 2 cause iits just so darn cute, but after that, no Idid not allow it...now we do have our own pool, so Iam flexable at home as long as no boys are around. I believe itis my job to teach my daughters as well as my 2 grown sons..to be modest, respectdul to themselves as well as others & there is absolutly no need to show as much flesh...my sons & husband wear tank tops with their long trunks..no im not the duggers..buti believe in modesty. For the breast feeding thing..i think it is every womens choice whether rhey nurse or not & should never be judges regardless of which way they choose. But my experience is, nursing mothers judge bottle feeding mothers..my daughter could not nurse her first child because she suffered with lactate migrains. My very close friend is a doctor, she says there is absolutly no need for nursing after rhe age of 2..if parents believe its about bonding, then they r not doing their job right to start with..she believes if a mother nurses after the age of 2 , its solely for the mothers sartisfacrion & the way she keeps from being a mother..i feel the same way..its like the child is wanting to go out & play, or is crying or is interrupting her while she is on the phone..so she gives them the boob instead of being a mother..then proclaims to be a fabulous mother...i feel the sme way about a child sleeping with their parent everymight..that way they dont have to get out of their bed when the child cries or needs them...so for my reasoning, being a mother of 4, grandmother to 4...these parents that state all this nonscents stuff, do it because they r lazy & proclaim to be the greatest parents...just saying!Jerilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17143275932829999516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320710263364843875.post-6045517282031182282012-05-11T14:04:33.225-07:002012-05-11T14:04:33.225-07:00So sweet :) Found you on Kelly's Korner..feel ...So sweet :) Found you on Kelly's Korner..feel free to follow me as well! <br />www.BeingBorquez.blogspot.comLauren Borquezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06197984988207675493noreply@blogger.com
