Before bed rant: as a FTM you never know what or how things will work with your child. The situation is confusing, stressful & unbearable. I feel like there are too many “do this” or “im doing it this way” people as opposed to “I think you should” “maybe you should try this” people. My daughter is 1 & I feel at a certain point she should know that no is no, that leave it means leave it or that you won’t get your way during a mini break down. A lot of people might disagree but im trying my best to atleast START showing her certain discipline. Of course dad & others don’t agree whether it be with “cry it out” or trying not to let her do what she wants and that’s when things get complicated. What’s right for you won’t be right for anyone else but as parents we need to come into agreement with each other/ S.O and speak on how OUR children will be raised up & what are the most important points. Opinions are always appreciated, slick comments or telling me how to raise my child will not be tolerated. I am a FTM & will find a balance to raise my daughter im just hoping it gets easier from here.
@zealous, like I said opinions are always welcome just don’t tell me WHAT to do or HOW to do it. at this point it’s annoying
True. My son is the same way. I'll tell him "no, don't touch" but he's just so damn curious he has to touch it anyway lol. Sometimes he listens, sometimes he doesn't 🤷🏽♀️ I think you should do what works for you. Don't let anyone tell you how they think you should raise your own child. People are so quick to judge and give unwanted opinions, especially to FTM or younger moms. It's so annoying like, ok but did i ask for your opinion tho? 🙄
My son is about to be 2 n never slept threw the night n barely eats ppl always trying to tell me do this n that so i feel the same way everybody is different if im not asking for help dont offer
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Do you really think the way you are raised
Has no impact on when and how you decide to have sex? I read a comment on another thread that really rubbed me the wrong way. Something about how teens have sex and there's just no stopping it no matter how you raise them.
