Trust

A highly sought after commodity. Just ask anyone whose trust has been betrayed one way or another or who's been disappointed before.

Even between people who love each other dearly, there are always trust issues to work on. Here are some trust issues I face:

1. I find it hard to trust someone fully with a fretful baby when I've seen them rattle a bottle in a baby's mouth previously.

2. I can't trust someone who's told her own child that she's given up on her.

3. I can't trust someone who's taken out her frustrations on her child while using a belt to beat her and then fucking forgets all about it years later.

4. I can't trust someone who treasures saving money/ convenience over values or quality or my child.

5. I'm unwilling to trust someone who tells me they support breastfeeding but on the side, criticizes children who are nursed over a year and labels them mamby pamby. I think these people need to grow up and deal with their insecurities or jealousy over the mother-child bond that's IMO impossible to break.

6. It's also hard to trust someone who tells me long term goals are more important, but judges the child's behavior by how long the child can sit still and shut up.

Yes, I mean you, you know who you are. Actually just 2 people lar.

I'm sure people also have trust issues with me. Oh well, isn't all fun?
