Obsessed with making boys rude
From the moment I gave birth to a boy I’ve been hearing comments about how he’s going to be rude and mess with all the girls and he won’t have any behavior. I don’t understand why they insist and on saying these things just because he’s a boy is this normal comment for a baby boy?

No one has said that to me… that’s an odd thing to say…
I don't have a boy but that's a weird thing to say.
Ive got two boys and one has ever said that to me. Even with one of my boys being autistic and doesnt understand alot hes never been called rude or anything
No one has said that to me and I have a boy. In fact they mention how he says please and thank you.
I can’t say anyone’s ever said that. Boys may be considered more of a handful and like to rough and tumble more however doesn’t mean girls are easier. Girls can be just as nasty and rude.
No it's not normal at all. Please correct them in front of your little boy "we love so much our boy is gentle" "we love our boy playing with his FRIENDS (when people try to force romantic relationship on kids)" ,... They are just reinforcing misogyny and this is our job as mother of little boys to teach them to be better men

What changing bags is everyone using for their little ones? Especially those formula feeding!
I’ve got the one that came with his travel system, but I’m fancying a new one — looking for something stylish but practical! I’d love to see what everyone else is using! 🤍

Breast milk
Hi guys, so just want to check see if anyone’s had the same thing happen so I’m not going mad. I breastfed my baby for about 12 weeks then stopped my supply gradually. Anyway fast forward 2 months, it would appear I’ve got breastmilk all of sudden leaking this morning, is this normal?😂😩

Rant about dad in playground incoming!!!!!
So me and my mum were just in the playground with my 21 month old. We made our way to a little playhouse and there was another little boy who seemed the same age, maybe a little older with his dad and older brother nearby.
I looked at the dad and he seemed so laid back he might aswell of been laid in the bushes. One earphone in, kind of looked distant.
I encourage my son into this playhouse, holding his hand. The little boy comes over and basically barges his way in and stands in the way so my son couldn’t come in. I’m obviously still encouraging him to go in and trying to chat to this little boy about how nice the playhouse is.
He swipes some leaves and sticks off a little table inside which makes my son jump so he steps back and this little boy leaves. He then follows us to the slide and he’s using his body to basically block my son. Kicking his leg so he can’t get on. The slide was massive and attached to a massive climbing frame. There was plenty of space for several kids.
It got to the point where we had to explain to this little boy that his behaviour isn’t very nice and to stop. The dad was on his phone still with an earphone in.
Now I try my hardest, even more so now I’m a mum to not judge and fully understand kids are kids and sharing, social skills ect are being learnt but I feel like those kids were in charge of their dad, not the other way around. At what point do you stop being so understanding and throat punch the dad 🤷🏽♀️
