I didnt feel the need to post in the past, but after today, i just have too....
When your out - at the shops, paying bills, whatever, do you ever notice how other parents speak to their babies/toddlers?
I have heard "shut up and stop whinging" "goddddddddd, where is your dummy, be quiet". Today i heard "suck this, be quiet, go to sleep" - this was whilst in best n less. Twins were probably 8 months old - and being told to suck this and go to sleep!!!. The tone was awful.
I know, i know i dont know these people's life situations - it may have been a bad morning, they maybe going thru a rough time. I know i have no right to judge. But i dont think anyone should be spoken to like that.....At the post office about 4 weeks ago, i saw a mother say to a 18 month or less little girl 'shutup, mummys not listening' Is this a productive way to speak to any little person.....?
It just upset me......that some little people out there get spoken to like that. I just felt like cuddling the little girl and taking her home with me !!!! ....okay, ill try and stop saving the world now.....LOL
