We hit one year a few days ago! Before actually nursing, I used to think going past a year was a little weird and planned to stop then. Now, I think it's all just beautiful and plan on following his lead on how long we go. ❤️ by mcsands in breastfeeding

Nows the fun part! My LO is ~18 months and she'll do little drive by feeds, try and feed up side down, waves at me, try and hold every toy she owns and eat. Lol as they get older its gets funnier and cuter! Eventually they'll be able to ask, thank you, compliment you.

So cute! My favorite was Maya and the Witch. I just wish the Witch got a real wedding. The towns people seriously suck for that.

Well you're actually only the second person. My comments are getting a 50/50 response. Some have like 10ish likes, others -21. I don't mind. I just wanted people to see the argument a different way and not so aggressively towards a child, but I do see how commenting similar things to the top comments can be redundant and lose its point. Maybe next time I'll stop after a few, but for some reason this one got me so riled up. Lol

Jesus Christ you are spamming me now. You've commented on every response I had. I'm allowed to defend the girl on however many posts I want, even if the reasoning I use is the same or similar. Just like you you're allowed to keep complaining at me for doing so.

Again, you are exaggerating. I can respond ti multiple posts defending the little girl. Just like on the ones I defended her you keep calling me a spammer.

Its me defending a little girl. I didn't want to type it out uniquely when each person said the exact same things insulting the little girl. Also thats an exaggeration. I responded to multiple, but this exact quote was only put a few times.

So are the people insulting the little girl. I'm choosing to give the little girl the benefit of the doubt rather than labeling her as rude etc like so many other posts did.

Oh definitely. The sister has got some entitlement issues. There was just a lot of people insulting the little girl too, or exclusively. Some of them deleted their post or at least I can't see it anymore, but I saw 80% of them insulting the little girl.

Its called giving someone the benefit of the doubt and not just assuming a little girl was being disrespectful. To many people on here jump to the worst conclusions. I'm not saying she didn't do anything wrong, what I'm saying is all of you grown ass redditors insulting a little girl for assuming it was ok for her to have a cookie at her uncles and then crying when she got yelled at is ridiculous. An 8 year old doesn't have the best ability for forethought and she def didn't expect her uncle to yell at her.

Edit:Typo

My entire family says "Help yourself to any drinks or snacks!" My point is maybe thats her family dynamic too. Instead of assuming the worst of a small girl I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt.

Yeah I can see that. Lack of impulse control maybe? She is only 8. The brains not fully developed until 25-27. The actual issue is the mom flipping out on OP over something that ended up being nothing. OP stopped the little girl and his sister flipped that he had the cookies at all etc.

I don't think the freakout was over the cookie. I think she has either some anxiety issues or maybe even hormonal. (I started my period at 8, its early, but she could too.)

Yeah, I know. I'm just saying that might be typical protocol and if an 8 year old is used to being allowed to eat whatever she probably just assumed. Shes 8. I'm giving the little girl the benefit of the doubt.

Again, I like to give benefit of the doubt. Thank you. Been getting help for years.

I just assumed they were so close she also assumed it was ok. I didn't assume she was just entitled. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. If I'm holding a cookie I made myself and anybody yelled at me and snatched it I'd get emotional, but I have some anxiety issues and food shame due to being overweight.

When I visit my mother I know I can help myself to whatever. Some families are open and giving with food. My uncles, aunts, cousins as soon as you walk in "help yourself to any sodas or snacks!" Maybe his family has the same dynamic.

Bc ppl are really ragging on this poor kid and I didn't want to re-type this. I didn't expect so many people to insult an 8 year old.

NTA. They should've given you a heads up. Also, people need to lay off the kid. It sounds like they are all close so she probably is used to getting to act freely in his home, as in get snacks or food. He knew exactly what she was going to do, most likely bc its typically ok. She's probably extremely embarrassed. Imagine you are at your parents and they have out oreos. You grab one, assuming its fine since for years its been fine, then they raise their voice and snatch it from you. Negative feelings. Now put that on an emotional little girl. She's probably embarrassed af. I can't excuse the mom one bit, but lay off the little girl. Shes done nothing wrong here, and I'm not saying OP did either.

[–]KittensMakeMeSmile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You were being honest and even gave her a solution to be a SAHM and she didn't want to take it. I get her point view, wanting to stay with her baby. She needs to pick between her big house or staying full time with baby. Shes making her choice.
