I agree that sometimes smiling and walking away it the best way to deal with the "judgey" parents and allow yourself to embrace the really considerate ones who give you that knowing and loving smile! <3Arpita of Up Down And Naturalhttp://www.updownandnatural.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421127934203797457.post-38175336104791493932012-02-14T15:07:57.317-05:002012-02-14T15:07:57.317-05:00What a great phrase! reminds me of how I deal with...What a great phrase! reminds me of how I deal with the constant and unsolicited advice from one certain person whose advice 100% clashes with my style...I always just say "thanks, I'll think about that" and just leave it at that!<br />PS - my 5 year old often wants to wear the same color head to toe :)mudpiemamahttp://mudpiemama.brillweb.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421127934203797457.post-39264771140065859722012-02-14T12:50:00.056-05:002012-02-14T12:50:00.056-05:00Wonderful post.

As I alluded to in the combox of another carnival post, I think moms can fall into the judgmental trap because we're passionate about doing the best we can, and we sometimes judge others more out of insecurity than the desire to attack someone else. Declaring a truce in the mommy wars relies upon women as well as society understanding that there is no such thing as “one size fits all” when it comes to motherhood and making an effort to talk with other women and encourage them as mothers regardless of their choices.<br /><br />Blessings to you in your own mothering journey!Kate Wickerhttp://KateWicker.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421127934203797457.post-54129320460681527442012-02-14T09:54:19.259-05:002012-02-14T09:54:19.259-05:00This is great, I can so relate to the feeling that...This is great, I can so relate to the feeling that I used to be judgemental, and I am now judged Lol. <br /><br />Thats a good phrase to use!

I totally agree that many issues in parenting are really up to each family, their unique styles and views. There is little use getting into confrontation with anyone when we know how challenging raising kids can be (and thanks for your own examples because they really help me ease up a bit) My one caveat though on not giving unsolicited advice is circumcision because I feel that this is a human rights issue for the baby and is not something that a parent has the right to decide. I mean I won't shout in your face or over the Internet but that's just one issue that I'll definitely give my opinion on and be on the receiving end of the other person saying 'thanks for your opinion'Terri Henryhttp://twitter.com/onelovelivitynoreply@blogger.com
