Writer's Block: Critical mass
Apr. 8th, 2010 01:21 pm[Error: unknown template qotd]
I do not take criticism well at all! The littlest thing will make me cry for days. It's silly really. I am pretty critical of myself than others, but I tend to do a lot of research on things I stand behind (such as how I raise my son) and it offends me when someone criticizes my choices.
My mother in law told me that basically the whole family is lazy because my son was not potty trained yet (he was not even 3 and a half, at the time). This was a couple months ago. I haven't spoken to her since. (for the record, maybe I just needed that one good reason to never speak to her again. She's a witch.) I backed off from pressuring him to potty train and he has come a long way. My MIL basically wanted me to force him, I guess. My husband sits on the toilet to poop about 2 times a day for half an hour each. I can tell he was forced as a child to poop, because he is still trying to force it. It can make you sick to do that and I don't want my son to go through that.
Whew, sorry for the rant. I'm not bitter. :) Anyway, I can hold a grudge like nobody's business if someone criticizes me in the wrong way. I mean she was a total bitch about it. I guess it was my fault for asking her what she thought, but I didn't think she'd attack her son, daughter in law and grandson. Silly me.
