My kid, my choices

One of my big issues with other moms is that so many of them are SO judgmental. If you feed your kid fast food or let them eat Doritos you're a bad parent, if you spank your kid you're a child abuser, if you circumcise you're a baby mutilator, if you don't breastfeed you're selfish and lazy and don't love your kid enough. NONE of these things make you a bad parent, they're just parenting choices. What do you care if I give my kid a happy meal every once in a while? All the time def isn't healthy, but in moderation it doesn't hurt anything. The only things that really make you a bad parent are things that will permanently hurt your child, be it psychologically or physically. As long as your child is getting fed, bathed, has clothes, you spend time with them, love them, and do your best for them you're a great mother, regardless of any of the choices I just mentioned. Having a different parenting style DOES NOT make you a bad mom, and forcing your beliefs and views on others doesn't change their mind, you just look like an asshole. Actually, people are LESS likely to listen to you when you're mean to them. I just wish some people would get that through their thick skulls. You don't make friends or prove your point by being nasty to people.
