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?

I left my LO with my MIL , turned my head away for 10secs and but caught my husband's relative feeding her a sweet drink. I WAs absolutely furious, i said stop, and couldn't help but rolled my eyes in front of everyone. Seriously?!

So before I could get to her, my hubby's aunt said in mandarin old fashioned tease, 妈妈不要你了。 seriously?! cant these pple keep their stupid mouths shut? my girl is learning now and picking up things very fast.
