I've been looking for the merch page what happened...???.... Poor lil kiddie, & frustrated momma by the sounds of it, I would have been upset too...... Goats milk blurrrghhhh, you can have any goats milk I may get shepherd...lol, I can't have lactose or gluten, & so been encouraged to like these milks, But I just can't, I don't like them, I've tried soya, goats, coconut milk, oat milks & just don't like them, tried many times too, the only milk I like is sheeps milk but we can't always get it, & Arla milk which is cows milk BUT zero lactose in it as its been taken out, But that flies of the shelves as well, especially full fat, what's left is normally semi skimmed.... & awww there cute lil faces with the dinosaurs 😀, & lil babe wasn't keen but she held it together Bless her...awwww...
That poor little person. How can mothers be like that towards their precious little ones. I hate watching mothers berate their kids, or even worse man-handling them. It’s so disrespectful towards little ones. Our kids take their cue from us so we need to be kind, gentle and loving towards them in thought, word and action. You are so great in the way you are in tune with your kids.
I love that you give prospective of the child....I know growing up I was always told to “keep up” with the adults and I would get soooo tired! Also yelling doesn’t help!
I am glad you pointed out the maybe side. If it is her first child and I think we have all been there with those feelings. This mom didn't know how to handle her child and handled it poorly. We can pray that this mom was just having a bad day, and that this kid is surrounded by a loving environment. This is a great PSA!
the mum May have been stressed out herself. Sometimes we just need to take a breath and a moment but it’s hard in those situations. I often offer help to others I see struggling or even just words of encouragement like “your doing a great job”.. let’s face it being a mum is hard work it’s full on and sometimes we don’t feel like we are doing a good job, or that we are appreciated. But it is the most rewarding on of all
Amazing insights Neysa. I feel so sad that I wasn't able to be the calm parent to my kids. You are amazing. Please keep sharing your perspectives, you do make a difference.
Oh my... that's my daughter...she has so many "I don't know" answers. 😢 was recently diagnosed with Pervasive Communication Disorder also with ADHD. So hard sometimes. Yes...agree. I've had some of those days of so much stuff. I've almost exploded at time. I keep forgetting that this little girl I have was in an orphanage for two years and so different for her growing up. ❤
So sad to hear that story. And so sad to know there are parents out there who treat their children inappropriately, probably like you said, without realizing what they are doing to them. And it's such an interesting experience to see the difference between your kids from 2017 and now. (--> I'm still catching up, watching the old videos. I'm at April 2017 now.)
I absolutely adore the way you parent your children. You don't have to feel guilty for not speaking up. Now you'll know what to do next time because of the way you reacted this time. You're learning and growing along with your children and there is nothing wrong with that <3
You made me cry your words are so wonderful thanks for caring the way you do. It just made me think about when I was younger also. Thanks so much for being U. You really do inspire me. Thanks for everything.
If you would have said something it would have at least given the Mom some pause for thought, even if she would have gotten offended.. I'm sure in her mind she would stop to think about herself.. glad you did think about it, even if it was after the fact.. some times in the moment we can't find the right answer on what to do.. now next time you (we) can say something instead of regretting not saying something
That is heartbreaking, I’m sure it was bringing out some memories of your childhood. You are so kind and patient with all your little ones. It’s wonderful that you are breaking the cycle of parents being out of control. You are an awesome mom, sometimes moms are not too open for advice, but you are right we should try and help for the child’s benefit.
Thank you for being so understanding- as parents we can get so “in our own head” rather than being present with our children. Hopefully somehow this mom will hear and receive the advice with the love and support you gave it. ☀️
That is heartbreaking. I have severe anxiety and my young son does too and I can’t stand to see that kind of thing happen. You are so right about everything you said. She should have been calm and tried to see if she could help her. I see this all the time though.
Only 3 minutes in and my heart is already breaking for this little one. Combined with toddlerhood, the little girl may have had a sensory disorder too. Poor thing...
Oh Neysa I’m so sorry. So sad. I’ll pray for that mom and girl. Glad that you have understanding and awareness of this situation. 💕 Thank you for the beautiful encouragement.
I hope that the mom was just stressed out and that she does not normally yell at her child. Hopefully she realized what she was doing to her child. I hope she found a bench and had a nice quiet time out for both her and her child. That was a very sad situation.
I’ve been on both sides of it. Needing the help and also seeing someone who needs help but not knowing how to help. I feel like we moms judge each other so often that when we need help we are afraid to ask for help for fear of being judged. Or on the other side I don’t want to say the wrong thing in fear of sounding judgmental.
