Whats so bad about that?

I had the scary sister-in-law to stay at the weekend. She has views and considers it her duty to express them…. On this occasion she felt my parenting skills were lacking….The precise sin I committed? Letting my 5 year old son have an IPod. Just to clarify I didn’t go out and buy an IPod for my 5 year old; but mine broke and I was soo gutted that I replaced it; my engineeringly minder partner then fixed the original one for his own use. The 5 year old then used it to listen to his favourite CD (World Playground) as dad didn’t want to hear it again…..he then referred to it as ‘my IPod’; nobody bothered to correct him.

 

Surely there are worse parenting sins?? My sister-in-law also believes that are children are polite and well behaved where as mine is a nightmare obviously as a result of poor parenting I personally have no opinions on other peoples parenting skills…afterall we all have to make a million decisions a day…most of these are based on compromise. And therefore its best if other people just stay out of it….
