I am content with my snooty attitude.

I don't generally speak to strangers. I don't smile at them either. I don't frown either. I walk around with a pleasant look on my face but I don't try to look happy.
I do other things like open doors or hold the door for someone coming in behind me.
I do judge the way people look. And I will walk in a door as far away from someone I think looks disgusting. I never give change to beggars. I will lie and tell them I don't have any money. But I have bought a big thing of water and a sandwoch for this homeless guy around here that I see often. Its hot here and I don't want the guy to diea slow and painful death of dehydration.
I don't hug anyone outside of my children and husband. I don't hug my inlaws, let alone peck them on the cheek. The thought repulses me.
My daughter is beginning to be the same way. It makes me sad at times, then other times I chalk it up to her being an apprehensive six year old. I encourage her to speak when spoken to and have manners. I don't make her talk to strangers though.
I grew up with a mom that was just like this. I suppose that's where it came from.
I don't get offended when someone calls me a snob. I don't particularly like the term "bitch" but oh well. What can you do, whine about it? No.
I guess I made this post to explain myself.

That's sad in my opinion. I love people. I give everyone food on the side of the road. I give them gift cards to a fast food place. I offer services to help abused victims. I try to protect children. I have patience to talk to strangers. And you know what? I feel amazing. I feel great that I can make at least one person smile. My baby girl is the same way. She knows not to talk to strangers. But she saw an old homeless man and gave him her only donut after church. She said he looked sad. She is 4. I love her. And I'm raising her correctly.

So you think I am raising my daughter incorrectly?

No. I just think its important to raise loving and helpful children. I wouldn't want my daughter to be "snooty" and idk anyone that does. How you raise her is your choice. As Long as she's safe. I can't exactly say my parenting is correct and yours is not, but my daughter would rather associate with nice loving children. And I don't blame her.

I am the total opposite from you. I love people. I have stood for an hour or less talking to a complete strangers. I've had some of the most interesting conversations that way. I smile everywhere I go because I honesty feel good. I love physical affection. I'll hug anyone I know. I only keep my distance if someone is crazed looking. I can't imagine being like you. I would miss out on so much goodness.

She's a sad bitter person. She won't even try to change that attitude even when she admits that her child is starting to behave the same way.. smh future cm member in the making.. lmao


Quoting ..guesswho..:

I don't know how to feel about you. You always seem so snarky here, but I guess you are like that IRL too, so whatever makes you happy at the end of the day.
