The funny thing is that I wouldn't have said anything to her about it had she not tried to justify her actions with the fact that she stayed up all night. I was planning on saying something to my brother so he could handle it but she blew it. There is nothing I dislike more than when parents act as if they're children are a burden.
I did bite my tongue though.......................today she was feeding him and he's usually ready for another spoonful before the spoonful is ready for him, and today he was a little more impatient. She says to him, "you need to learn how to be patient" She said it in a nice way, but I thought to myself "you need to learn how to follow your own advice."
