I hate Lifesource b/c I feel like they steal my money if I go in there.<br />So maybe that means I'm not a true hippie ;)Gabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876399478058000868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096897644449215938.post-83338513794856312782011-02-01T12:59:51.479-08:002011-02-01T12:59:51.479-08:00It's funny (but not the ha ha kind) but I have...It's funny (but not the ha ha kind) but I have felt a lot of criticisms for being the opposite of some of those things.It goes both ways.<br />You give your kid juice? OMG!<br />or "He's never had juice? OMG!"<br />People need to chill out.<br />I know I'm a conservative granola hippie schedule type of mom. And I am OK with that....I thrive that way....except for the criticism. And when we were barely surviving through a premature baby turned colic.... criticisms were definitely the LAST thing we needed. <br />Oh... sadness. I think I need to blog about the mompetition.Gabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876399478058000868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096897644449215938.post-52974670295747068192011-01-24T09:26:19.707-08:002011-01-24T09:26:19.707-08:00Loved this post.

It's funny, because all but one (the juice for constipation) I try to usually do the opposite of and you know, it doesn't make either of us a better mom. I heard a saying once that went something like this: I was the best parent in the world before I had kids. What I've decided is that all of the things you listed are probably more important to the adults than to the kids. What matters to the kids is that they get attention and love and are the center of our worlds. That's it! <br /><br />Good post!janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12822944353792396033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096897644449215938.post-5097573332589781392011-01-22T21:18:42.222-08:002011-01-22T21:18:42.222-08:00Oh, how I love it! I laughed especially when you ...Oh, how I love it! I laughed especially when you said "I don't buy organic unless it's on accident." That's seriously perfect. <br /><br />My kids eat fruit snacks constantly.<br /><br />The only reason I don't let them drink soda is because I don't want to share. I think that makes me worse. :-)<br /><br />In my super humble opinion, being a mommy isn't about parenting "perfectly". "Perfect" is constantly changing, and what people judge today, they'll do themselves tomorrow. Great, perfect parenting happens in the sweet spot where children feel loved, see love and learn how to love. The rest is just opportunity for people to feel better about themselves...and totally 100% irrelevant. <br /><br />It's all good, Mindy. :-) <br /><br />P.S. I also vaccinate the hell out of my kids.

I feel so much guilt all the time, for whatever reason, that I may not be doing the right thing for my child. But, you know what? HE is happy, I am happy, My Husband is happy...so we must be doing something right. Its hard to be judged too, whether directly or indirectly, and I never realized how hard that would be as a Mother.
