As you can imagine, it had quite the effect on us. It's the Blue Steel of Mom looks.

If I have a son and I do that with him, just shoot me and put my kid into foster care, because he'd be better off.

The one thing I will NOT do is fuck up my kid by projecting upon her my own twisted relationship to food and body image. That said, I'm sure I'll manage to find my own unique version of an unforgivable parenting mistake.

"Oh hi, you are very short. That must be... inconvenient".
When I met my boyfriend's 10 month-old niece, I consciously tried to treat her like I would a golden retriever. Worked like a charm.

So many of the men I know seem to be very different dads than their dads were. It may be a generational thing, but the men of my generation seem to be much more involved with their children than the men of our parents' generation ever were.

My brother now has children and from what I have observed, he does not parent like our Mom. He seems to have developed a much more laid back approach - Mom was a teacher and much stricter.
Interesting article though!

"You like spiders? Yes, they are very nice. A spider went in your mouth and bit you? That must have hurt." A 3 year old told me that once. my mama taught me that it's important not to laugh at them, no matter what ridiculousness they're saying.

My husband didn't have the best experience with either parent growing up & it's been interesting to see him w/ our son. He's incredibly sweet & scared at the same time b/c he knows he doesn't have role models, but I think he's doing a great job. (I'll stop being cheesy now)
