Things that trip me out

I have to say this. I am so tired of people who are so hellbent on holding onto a passion that they alienate and isolate others because of it. I am against homebirth BUT will not end a friendship over it. When I was a homebirther, I was in the hospital for the birth of my niece (natural vaginal delivery) and my nephew (emergency c-section for breech presentation). Would I alienate either parents for their birth choice, no. I am pro breastfeeding, but would never chastise a woman who didn't breastfeed till their kid went to kindergarten (*insert sarcasm*). If a mom gives it a shot, that's great. If she chooses not to, at least she is feeding her baby. If a woman circs or doesn't circ, it's none of my business and I won't treat her like she is a lesser person for not doing one or the other. If someone chooses to swat their child's butt or not, it's not my business. If I don't agree with the reason for the discipline, I will speak up but that parent can make the decsion to do what they want and in the end, it's still none of my business. I won't stop talking to a mother because *gasp* her three year old isn't rear facing in their britax. As long as you are using a safety seat properly, that is wonderful. When will parents mind their own business and stop trying to parent everybody elses kid?? Unless the child is being starved, abused , or neglected, leave other people alone to parent their child that they conceived, carried, and birthed. When will moms stop acting like piranhas ready to tear other mothers to shreds for not doing something their way??? What's funny is these are the moms who gripe about people not liking their choices yet sit there and condemn others. We are all mothers doing what we think is best for our children, point blank.
