    urgh! some people think it is there god given right to tell us how to parent our children, i was told the other day to refuse all nappies even at night time for my 2 year old :O
    Are they going to come round to do your washing????? We really need to learn to follow our children on things like this. My DS1 told me when he didn't want to wear a nappy at night - I think he was close to 3yrs. And, you know what, he was right. He didn't need to anymore!!

    Yes I know those comments well....
    When I started to ask them if they would give up their coffee/chocolate/wine/maccas (insert their vice here) because someone else didn't agree with it, they'd snort, but not ask again.
    I also couldn't agree more with Mayaness on both the "yes what if I do" comments and the issues with themselves bit.
