Don’t judge me because I bring a DVD player with me when I got out for meals with my son – for months now I have been avoiding going out for restaurants because I know my little guy won’t sit for more than two minutes, but I am at the point now where I want to go out for meals sometimes and I want my son to experience not eating at home, so what if he is watching a DVD player? Don’t judge!
Don’t judge me because every now and then I need some “me” time – being a parent isn’t easy, it’s definitely the most rewarding job in the world, but sometimes you just need to step away and get your nails done or hair done or even just go get a coffee at Starbucks and sit down and enjoy the “me” time. We are allowed .. Don’t judge!
Don’t judge me because I have a mini meltdown after my son has a massive meltdown – I swear my son has been having meltdowns since the day he was born, starting off being colicky and crying all day/all night and then to him turning one and getting frustrated because I don’t know what he wants, he can’t speak or show me so he just loses his s@%t to being almost two and well everything is just a massive meltdown because he is almost two. I am also allowed to meltdown and it’s ok (even if it is in public sometimes) – we are only human! Don’t judge!
Don’t judge me because I didn’t make my child’s baby food – I didn’t buy a baby bullet or any kind of baby pureeing machine, nor did I go to the “make your baby’s food” classes and I truly hated the “oh you didn’t want to make your own food?” comment! You know what, my son is now 2 years old and he didn’t fall apart because I gave him the jarred baby food! It’s ok if you don’t make your own baby food and you don’t need to feel judged for not … Don’t judge!
Don’t judge me because my son STILL eats baby food – it’s not a secret that some, if not most kids get to a certain age and they become picky eaters and my son is no exception. He has recently become a full carb loader and HATES anything healthy or any kind of meat, so what do I do .. I give him tetra packs of veggie baby food so at least I feel content that he is getting some veggies. I cant even begin to explain how many looks I get and even comments about him being too old for baby food. Don’t judge!
Just think twice before you judge because there is always a story behind what you see

Judge you? I absolutely relate to you!!! Bravo for saying it like it is. We spent a very LONG year trying to enjoy a meal out before we saw another family with a movie player and the WORLD of eating out became finally enjoyable!
Thanks for your honesty and for sharing. We have ALL been there
I only plan on making my baby food because I think it’ll be the cheaper option and I’m broke being on mat leave!! haha Hopefully i can stick to it!
