Interference
Tuesday, March 14, 2006
When I was younger i always thought marriage would be hard. Being with someone 24/7 taking care of that someone and ensuring that the marriage works.. and of course all of this is AFTER you choose the right partner.. well i was wrong..that part is easy.. being a mother is hard,,
my son is 5 and a half months old.. and my main problem is interference,, sure i need the help of everyone around me.. my mother.. my friends.. my husband's mother etc.. but what do you do when the way you want to raise and take care of your child is different from your mother's ,, how do you contradict her and say "mom pls stop... this is not what i want"
I am in this dilemma now.. unsure how to approach my mother and tell her to stop giving him medicine every time he cries.. which is on my mind now because she just called me to tell me she gave him something i refuse to give him.. ahh frustrating..
i want to be the best mother i can be.. but interference i think is going to be my main frustration going forward.. and i am only in the take care stage..haven't reached the raising part yet!!!

I think I can understand how frustrating it can be when someone does something you really don't want to be done to your child (especially your first born), but I am sure in time you will learn to chill and look at things on the brighter side. You know that our family is stubborn and so all you can do is insist on your beliefs and try to make mom understand (though I really doubt it's going to make much of a difference) lol.
oh well.. I am sure little eddy will be just fine inshallah and mashallah.
I really miss that dude btw. :p
