Am I too sensitive or over-reacting? I have to feed my 10mo lunch/dinner during CNY at in-laws' place or relatives' homes. I really wish to feed her quickly, properly and safely. Am so peeved with my sis-in-law using a cold canned drink to tempt/tease my lo and distracting her during meal time all the time.Knowing that lo is mimicking sounds we make, sil clucks her tongue for lo to copy her. but hey, can she not wait til she finishes her meal? We all know how bad it is to tempt kids with forbidden food and junk.. ams how sharp the opened ring tabs of the can drink is. Then mil is asking 1001 questions abt lo's food. Did you cook it over the stove/on opened fire (coz i used thermos shuttle chef)? Why give so little? Why give same porridge for lunch/dinner? What did you give today? What is that black black thing? Why this..why that... Did anyone experience anything similar?

my mil used to carry my son out of high chair when he fuss. then i kept telling her my logic and how i wanted to train him to sit longer. so she stopped carrying her out until i finishes my dinner/ until i say ok. b4 my son was 1yo she cooks her porridge with fish sauce, and all sorts of seasoning. then i kept telling her his stomach is still young. too salty cannot. my son turned 1 in dec. today when cooking dinner she ask what seasoning i want for my son's egg. i said soya sauce. she was surprised. hahahaha... but i do let everyone knows that what is a big no no to feed my son. my in laws are usually alright with it.
