M,

Well I have some thoughts on this.

Quote:

I'll have to really watch what I say and how I say things. There are, afterall, thousands of ways to wash a kids hair, right? Maybe I should keep my big mouth shut and let him do things his way (which is what I've been doing since the hair washing incident.)




Let him do it his way. There is nothing that irratates me more than my W telling how somthing like washing my childs hair HAS TO BE DONE. You are right there are about 1000 different ways this can be done so let him do it.

Quote:

There seems to be a paradox here.....H is very proud of how I took care of the children while he was gone, and says he thinks I'm a good mother, but I shouldn't offer any unsolicited advice or suggestions about childcare.





You know I think my W does a great job with our D but I dont need anyone telling me my way is wrong or telling me how to do it better. I think your H takes this a probably criticism(sp). Let him do it don't give him advice on how better to do it till he askes. It will save you a lot of grief. I mean really does it matter that much if the clothes don't match .

Anyway I hope I helped a little bit.
