Sooo I NEVER complain about my mom, but today I just need to vent! My mom is wonderful & I do look up to her for a lot of stuff. But lately she’s been on this kick about telling me I don’t feed Natalie anything healthy. Her latest joke is she eats “bar food” because for lunch sometimes I give her grilled cheese or chicken nuggets. Last night I made buffalo chicken stuffed shells and gave her some and she LOVED it. My mom kept going on about how I shouldn’t have given her the hot sauce and blah blah blah. Well I told her I looked it up and in other countries babies are having curry by the time they’re 10 months old! And that food doesn’t need to be bland because baby needs to get used to the flavors and such. And she kept making the “bar food” joke and I said mom she eats fruits and vegetables everyday. Which is true. Hubby and I coook good wholesome meals and for breakfast and lunch she always has a fruit. It may seem like I’m overreacting but I take my moms criticism to heart because she’s my mom! Does anyone else have this issue? I so appreciate your feedback!! You guys are great.

Oh boo they're kids. My boys eat cereal for breakfast everyday, lunch is always sandwich, chicken nuggets, spaghetti os.. whatever we have on hand.. and I cook dinner everyday that always has a vegetable and protien... we barely fry foods and we always give fruits for snacks to the boys. They're growing kids.. they don't have to have 5star fancy fruits and veggies for every meal. It's not going to hurt a child to eat chicken nuggets for lunch.
I got crap because he eats a lot of fruit and won't eat meat much. So, no matter what they'll find a reason to complain. I try to ignore it. His doctor isn't concerned, and until she says something I won't worry. It's not like his diet is cookies and chips.
I can't even get my son to eat healthy half the time. I got lucky last night when he showed interest in the salad I had and then ended up eating half of it. Usually in the mornings he has mini muffins and milk and then lunch I usually try to give him yogurt but he usually fusses because he wants goldfish or chips and won't eat the yogurt... Dinner is also a challenge...
@babyking1 grown up table food. Anything I was eating
@mama_of_one, I mean it’s not like she does it ALL the time, and I do appreciate her advice on stuff. But it’s just one thing that gets under my skin because I know that my kid gets her nutrients
I have the opposite issue. Mil and hubby always pick at me for not wanting to give my boy junk food, greasy food and a bunch of sugary stuff. Plus, seems like from the time he was born they picked at me for not wanting to let him eat real food before he even started on baby food
I'd tell my mom to knock the *jokes that arnt jokes* off or I'd stop seeing her for awhile till she does.
Your mom should be butting out of your parenting decisions.
I'd just tell her it bothers you... be honest. Ignore her whenever she says those things. If my mom says some shit that bothers me i normally whatever her and move on. Lol
