Condescending Things Parents Say To Non-Parents
Mmm. That’s not child-friendly
The restaurant I chose. The party I’m hosting. The gift I’m giving. All of it is held up to the standard of, “Is it child-friendly?” And if it isn’t, it seems to be deemed wrong or bad. Well, I don’t have kids so, I don’t judge things that way. And if I put a lot of effort into something, or if I love and care about something a lot, it is hurtful to have a parent friend turn her nose up to it and say, “That’s not child-friendly,” writing off anything that could be good about it.
