Those who have had more than one baby, do you look back and think you were way too strict with first born?
I feel like I’ve been too harsh with my first baby. I wish I’d been softer with her 😔. I put so much pressure on myself to make her to have good manners, be kind, listen and just be well behaved

Absolutely!
But I also think the mum guilt will be there no matter what!

Nope, I'm glad I've been strict, I'm parenting a future adult that needs manners and social etiquette

Also glad I’ve been strict, working with children I know exactly how I want my children to turn out. You see all sorts of children and all sorts of parents….
Okay thank you. I’m worried I’ve been very harsh but she’s a lovely child with everyone else, very polite and kind. She just fights me an awful lot. It’s hard work being strict but I’m really hoping it will play off in the long run!
