How do you educate people with regards on baby wearing? One time i got my baby a woven wrap and i totally fell in loved with it, but one day when my neighbor saw us she said to me that uy magiging "sakang" anak mo jan! and she points her pointy finger at us saying "mukha pa kayong badjao" sabay tawa of course i got offended and said to her that being sakang is "namamana" and i already told her that her ignorance is too obvious, then she kept on laughing at us and we just walk away feeling saddened

I've experienced the same thing when we once went to the bank and I am wearing my baby. I can hear one old lady saying about those stuffs when finally she confronted me to remove the baby cause it will cause "sakang." I just looked at the old lady and told her that "sakang" is hereditary and baby wearing has nothing to do with it. I even tried her to feel free to research about it since she has a smartphone. Then gave him my biggest smile. Just confidently baby wear and don't mind those people who has so much to say with things that they seem not to know about. After all, we are confident that baby wearing is not bad for our babies and will even get them closer to us. Go baby wearing mommas!
