I was at a nursery drop off today (same nursery as my lo) two boys playing with plastic guns and my minded lo was given one to play with by one of the boys (I took the minded lo to one side an reminded lo that mummy doesnt like him to play with guns and could he please give it back. Not a problem from my minded lo he handed it back no questions (i was very proud of my minded lo for this and praised him)
I then got a look from another mum who then asked 'doesnt she let him play with guns'
I told her no, but then again i dont give any of mine a gun to play with.
Why she asks, . . . its not like they are going to hurt anybody. (and looks around the other mums for support)
i just said 'its prefrence, everyones different'
I was fine when i gave that responce but now its playing over in my mind, how rude of her to judge others.
