Does It drive you crazy when others try and tell you how to raise your children?

yes, it sure does, especially when it is family. now that they are teens, they are still giving me advice!

indeed, it does...its so crazy...people see u with a baby and start gicing u free fund advicies full of knowldge from all over the world...some without sense...they say it because they have to say it....mind it is very irritating....evrybody tries to become a specific search engine answer

It seems like having children is an open door to opinions. My two are older now but I still get unsolicited "feedback." I think it's important to stay strong about what you want and believe when it comes to raising children. I used to always listen to whatever people wanted to say, I'd tell them, "thanks a lot ... I'll think about that!" I never bothered to argue or to counter their thoughts and opinions... ultimately, I think people do believe they are "helping"... so I plaster on a smile and just go on my way, doing my own thing

I hate someone tell me how to dress, and i also hate them tell me how to raise my children, except i asked them. I think if they are doing that do me, it means they think i am stupid. How to dress and how to raise my own children is a way choose by myself nothing to do with them. And I think no one will try to make them dressed in a ugly way and teach their children to be a stupid adults.

Well indeed some people could be annoying if there are saying things that contradict what you believe is right for your kids. Nevertheless inasmuch as you are the mother... the decision is in your hand. You can always listen to their advice but that does not mean you should follow. It looks like you know even better than them so take that opportunity to teach them. So if they are giving you wrong advice, there is nothing wrong with telling them that what you believe is right. In that way, they can also learn from you. You are very right in not giving your food junks and in not giving your child medicine for every little thing. Synthetic medicine should be avoided as much as possible. I believe you know pretty well about how to raise a healthy child so have the right to correct the wrong advice of the people around. In fairness, maybe they mean well. Maybe they care and they want to show it by giving advice. So you can also give you thoughts not just to feel better but for them learn what is right from you.

if you argue with them, they will only tell you more and more things that you disagree with. so, just say "yes", or "ok", or "i'll do that" just to stop them telling you everythings.

It's annoying sure, but I try not to let it get to me to much if possible. A lot of people mean well, but for example, I have a family member who doesn't think my daughter is eating enough baby food, and does not listen when I tell them that she eats some every day. It's annoying sure, but I just keep reminding them that she does eat some every day, and she's still learning to eat it. If she likes it, she'll eat it, if she doesn't, she won't. I figure it's easier just to shrug it off then let it bug me, like I said I knew they mean well.
