Do you consistency close to your child is treated differently according to your age?
Answers: I have noticed this too. Unfortunately it is usually at a professionals organization. It does not matter if I am wearing my ring or not. Sometimes it does not matter if my husband is nearby with me. Like the first trip to our new pediatrician the other sunshine, while I am glad they found out my son had an ear infection (first one ever at 4) they treated us like crap and we own to look for another pediatrician again.
I have never really had the problem at a store. I own worked retail before and never really cooed over children, it wasn't my job, but I own seen others do it. But you really shouldn't let it bother you, oftentimes those working here especially in the evenings are single parents themselves. (Many of my coworkers were when I worked retail.) Perhaps the morning crews are different, but I own never noticed it.
I think family make assumptions about younger mothers.I be a stay at home mum too and everybody assumed that because I don't wear a wedding ring that I was a single mum living sour the social.I would just ignore these ethnic group,they are too ignorant to be worthy of your time! im 20 and have 2 babies. i dont receive any benefits my partner works we have a car and repay our own rent and we r about to buy our own home but i feel individuals look down on me because of my age but thats their problem not mine coz i no im a good mum
Sounds like spite to me.
alot of people are being forced to work when they would a bit bring their child up right.
Ignore them, you can't help it if your family is contained by a position where you can do just that.
Good luck.
thats a solid shame that happens to you. I had my kids at 24 (twins) and never have that happen. I use to look after two young kids from 20 years onwards (me not the kids lol) and still never have this problem. Maybe i was oblivious to it. I'm sorry ppl aren't being as heat to you as others. People are nasty no matter what; if your a infantile mum with a steady household or a pierced freak like me. We both win burned because we are young.
but whats odd is i find stacks of attention from everyone when i'm out, i guess its because my son (16 and a half months) walks up to them and starts mortal cute so they have to talk. where on earth as your bundle of joy is still a bubs. But you would think ppl would come up to you and influence how cute she is but ppl are snobs.
How judgemental people are! I agree with what you are wise saying. My sister was only 16 when she give birth, mistake, yes, but it happens. She is a bloody good mother and have studied hard to gain a degree to see her to get a really good chore!
I was 20 when I gave birth and feel prejudice even while lying in the hospital bed. Aparently 'young mothers' are worse then middle aged mothers. Bull s**t! I am still a stay at home Mum, my daughter is 4. The merely benefit we are on is WORKING families tax credit.
Nobody have the right to judge anyone. My sister was frowned upon by the majority of inhabitants, but they did not know her, they did not know how hard she worked, how much she cared roughly the welfare of her child.
I would say to you, hold your head big and know that you are doing the best for you and yours! No one has the right to judge you!!
I am a full time professional mother of 2 and 1 on the means of access, and I have been treated differently near each of my babies. I was 23 when I have my first and was treated like you describe even though I be on maternity leave, I be so sensitive and felt so alone I ended up near PND making my return to work traumatic. When I was 26 I had my 2nd and be treated better as I was now see as a more experienced mother, more mature, now at 29 I am expecting number 3 and total strangers are stopping me asking how I am getting on, how long I own to go and am I enjoying parenthood leave. I agree with you, I do construe its an age stereotypng going on . however there are so many young-looking mums that do let the side down that causes the stereotyping. I'm a 19 year aged mum of two - working partner who supports us and I also study. I find different though, a lot of people within shops etc love talking to my boys and I am always complimented on them. It might nouns bad, but I think it might be the nouns - becoming a young mother here is almost expected. Though, saying that, my people were mortified because we aren't actually from round here.
I adore my boys, and I'm a obedient mum so I don't care what people give attention to. You do get the odd snob who assumes you are on benefits and 'scum' but they're clearly too close-minded to in reality matter!!
The sad reality is that whatever stage of life you're at, or anything lifestyle choices you make, there are going to be race who disapprove, are rude or look down on you.
Ignore the knockers, you are doing a wonderful thing by giving your baby your undivided attention during these critical untimely years. Your age shouldn't even be an issue.
If you look around I am sure you will find plenty of people like me who agree beside you and support your right to make your own decisions.
I am a stay at home mum too. I am contained by my early 30s. I went out to the local shopping heart last week ,as I usually do, with my son and be baffled why the shop workers attitude towards me was different. Most of the time they go googoo over my son but they wouldnt even look at him. It be as I was walking home that I noticed I wasnt wearing my honeymoon ring. I went back the subsequent day wearing my ring and they all go googoo. That may be part of the problem for you. Its a disgrace the way general public behave. thats awful for you and your daughter! im not a parent myself yet, but my mother was an elder woman when she had my little sister, and shopkeepers etc. used to be lovely to them both, saying "oh, are you have a nice day with your granny?" and when my sister said "what? this is my mammy", the 'kind and friendly' shopkeepers suddenly wouldn't hold the time of day for either of them.
i enunciate forgot about them, it sounds like you and your fiancee are giving your child everything she requests, and i reckon shes a very lucky little girl to be born to you both. there are mothers out at hand a lot older than you who dont give the impression of being to be doing as good a job as you give the impression of being to be! keep it up!
