Would you be upset by a toddler crying in a restaurant?

So yesterday my toddler had a pretty long day, almost no nap. We've been away from home for several days and she's a little dysregulated. We took her out for dinner and she had a pretty big meltdown near the end of the meal, and was also a bit fussy and hard to entertain until we got our food. The only time she really got to screaming-crying was at the end though, and we took her out quickly.

I came across a Reddit thread about an "entitled parent" with a screaming toddler in a restaurant. A lot of the comments below were of the opinion those parents should have made their kid be quiet, or taken her out, or just not gone out at all. I kind of get it. No one wants to be around a screaming kid that isn't theirs.

For us though the thing is that it was our last night out of town, we were all tired and had no food left in the airbnb because we plan these things pretty tight. We also didn't really want to do fast food or takeout because we had been having a LOT of terrible food and wanted to eat a decent meal (I'm pregnant, and fatty foods in particular are making me nauseated, so real food and good nutrition is kind of important for me). I felt bad taking my toddler out while she was overtired, and I get that it's generally kinder to not take an overtired child out in public, but in our case I really kind of felt like we had no choice.

So AITA? Should we have just stayed back at the Airbnb and gotten takeout? 🫤

Am I wrong for feeling this way

So i am a jealous person when it comes to my marriage or relationship. So last night we were just sitting on the couch watching tv and i saw the snapchat notification of a girl emoji. so i jokingly asked my husband who is this girl? my mil was also there. my husband is like show me and he opened the msg and he’s like oh that’s my school friend and she has apparently replied to one the snap my husband sent her of our toddler playing in park. and she was like oh so cute. and there were some snaps she shared of her kid and it was saved. I didn’t get jealous because i saw that but what if there’s something else in this friendship. yea i do overthink because i’m like this. and my husband saw my face and he got pissed and he’s like are you doubting on me or something. i’m like no no i was laughing but he can read my face and mind. 🙄 i don’t think he’s having an affair with her or something she’s an average looking. but i thought we already talked about not talking to another gender who is not our mutual friend you know . well, because it creates misunderstandings. so he agreed. and he’s getting mad at me for even thinking of that about him and not trusting him. im like no i don’t trust other person i don’t know their intentions right. so i’m just thinking am i wrong in this? should i not ask about it again? the bitch in me wont let me ignore this lol. but at the same time i don’t want to ruin anything spray when we are both very in happy and healthy relationship at this time.

Eating out with baby

Finding it tricky going out to coffee shops, restaurants etc and feeding my baby. Now
He is being weaned and eating more solids we’re either bringing something with us or ordering off the menu if suitable. At home he’ll sit in his high chair well and eat. When out it’s getting to be impossible. He doesn’t sit in the high chair properly and mostly trys to spin himself so he can watch around the room or stare at people, which at the minute is considered cute but there will come a time we have to discourage it. As he is pulling his legs up into the chair to move its putting him at possible risk of falling out (he is watched the whole time so no way he ever could). He’ll eat a bit of food but no where near as much as when he eats at home. I know it sounds silly to suggest at this age but I’m seriously wondering if he will eventually have a diagnosis of ADHD as his behaviours show signs and it runs in our families. I don’t know what we do though if ever we go out somewhere or how we can encourage him to sit properly and focus on us or his food instead as at the moment it’s not working!

Partner and bonding?

My partners just told me although he loves our 12 day old baby he hasn’t bonded with him ? Why do I feel so mad and upset about this? Is it normal? He’s wishing away time like saying when he’s older it will be better because at the moment all he does is sleep? I’m so upset ?

Older children.

I know it’s totally normal for children to change and struggle with the addition of a newborn but I’m struggling a bit to cope with the demand. My newborn is obviously taking priority for me and I’m recovering from a C-section too which means I’m not doing the usual activities. My fiance is stepping up & doing everything for our son (4years) giving him loads of attention but it still doesn’t feel enough. He’s having tantrums, being boisterous around our newborn & not wanting to go to bed etc… any tips welcome xx

Is it “normal” that nursery staff is teaching children to play cards?
