What is it with people who don't have kids, handing out unsolicited advice to parents on how to raise kids?

Man, does that irritate me. When my daughter was still in diapers, I got a lecture from a co-worker (no kids but "I have nieces and nephews") on how bad it was to use disposable diapers and a "good parent" would use cloth diapers and wash them. My wife had a childless co-worker (again with "nieces and nephews") go on at length about what a lazy parent she (my wife) is because we had child-proof doorknobs, a gate across the stairs, etc. and a "good parent" would be attentive enough and not need to child-proof everything, that's just being lazy. Grrr! Does this happen to other people too, or are my wife and I being singled out?

Now that you are a parent, everyone will want to share their opinions with you. Try not to take it personal. You and your wife will find what works for you and is perfect for your family. And don't be afraid to disagree with those giving you unwanted advice! Just say, "I couldn't disagree more!" They really don't know what they are talking about until they have children.
