How do feel when people make comments about your LO appearance

My mum said that my little girl doesn't look as pretty as I did when I was little. How would this make you feel?
I don't have the best relationship with my mother because her words are so harmful and to be honest I try to keep my distance from her as she never has anything positive to say.

Personally I’d never let anyone around my child that says such hateful comments mum dad whoever idc ain’t no one disrespecting my child don’t take it to heart Jsut block her out x

Id warn her that if she continues I wouldn’t let her around my daughter. It’s not long until your little one will be able to understand and if you have been damaged by it she will be too

The ONLY saving grace would be if she is just reminiscing about baby you and thinking about how perfect you were, but it doesn’t sound like it, and even if that were the case she still needs to stop

That's horrible!! You probably did already but I'd call her out on it tbh. It's weird isn't it the half compliments that come from people who have to put others down 👎

Thank you ladies I do try to keep my distance and considering how I would protect my LO from her grandma. I have called her out so many times about her words and she just doesn't change. Also I guess she gets aways with it from the rest of the family, so its like I have to stuck it up. I defo get it worse than my siblings as we have the worse relationship compared to my siblings. Just need to make sure my LO doesn't get hurt by her the way she has hurt me through the years 😔

So sorry you have been so hurt by your own mother like this...sometimes we have to stay away from people we love bc they are toxic and will never change. It's easier to let it keep happening to you until you see how it could impact your child... then it's like oh no, I will not allow that to impact them they way it did/does me. So use this as a wake up call and save your daughter from any future damage she may cause her.

And also, cuddos to you for recognizing it and wanting to protect her! That just shows you are 10 times the mother yours ever was to you.
