Non parents and advice

does anyone else get offended when people withought children try and tell parents how to raise there children or am I the only one that cant stand that type of arogance?

I don't think anyone can stand it at all,my mom gets offended every time someone tells her how to raise me and my sisters,mainly me cause unlike most I am a really opened minded person and am not afraid to speak out,some people get mad at that and tell my mom to teach me better and that just ticks her off,it's happened many times,the main lesson we've learned is don't tell others about your business because they will try and twist things up.

Well, yes...I mean, it's easy to stand on the other side of the fence and pass judgment when you've never been there.

I've had three children, all with very different needs and I still don't pretend to know it all...every child is a unique learning experience.

I dont mind it.
There are cases where people who arent parents know more about kids
than a parent themselvs. Like teachers and doctors such.
I dont find it arrogant at all.
Some people just know best.

people who think they can do a better job, and don't have kids should try for a week. then they can judge you.

Just because they don't have children does not mean they may not have good advice or know what it takes to be a parent. I am only expecting my first child now and I have lots of good advice I gave friends and family. They can either take it or leave it. I think it would be how and when the person puts in there two cents. I only gave it when asked.
