What’s amazing and amusing is they made that little after school snack fund for the kid to spite the old man as the kid wasn’t even involved in the situation.
story 2: " I set fixed hours for my shop, but always allow this one woman and her four kids to come in 15 minutes after I close down, now it's gotten out of hand, and I've had to ban all children." No, You need to say shops closed, better luck next time we're open. If you don't have, and then enforce boundaries, no one will respect you, when you say no.
Her being a breastfeeding consultant makes that story so much worse imo. I dont wanna imagine how she deals with women at her work who are unable to breastfeed.
when I was 14 I was buying a new book in a series, which I had been looking forward to for months and was physically very excited about it. but, I was a full dollar short, and I was paying with cash. I was so sad I think I literally wilted at the register. well, the college student manning the register looked around and like a secret, pulled a dollar out of her bra and rung me up and said "I hope you like the book, that series is one of my faves. have a good day hun" lol thank you random woman who didnt think a 14 year old was too old to help
@@blackbeautysister3 God the Percy Jackson series was amazing. My grandfather bought me the entire collection when I was a teen, best set of books I ever read.
Story 3 - As someone who *has* a developmental disability, mothers like that make me sick. Spreading lies about childhood disabilities to fear monger naive parents into raising THEIR child how YOU want. The only way a child can become developmentally disabled after birth is through an injury or infection that damages the brain. And while you should obviously not want to make your child disabled, it absolutely disgusts me when people try to use the idea that their child will turn out like ME to scare other parents into submission. So what if a freak accident happens and they do turn out like me? I'm just as lovable as a non-disabled person, I just can't do a few things by myself.
I literally cried when I pumped the other night and spilt an ounce and a half, out of the three ounces I pumped. It’s super hard and I was close to giving up.
"You're big, so you can be big," 5 seconds later . . . . . . . . . . . . "She's too little to have an opinion." Make up your mind, is she big or little? I see why her kids don't listen to her. She doesn't even listen to herself.
Not only that, that entitled moron didnt realize one other thing. Any place that sells tobacco products has a license to do so, many in places like the US also sell alcohol as well so have that license. That therefore makes it a licensed venue, and many places have laws regarding such where such people as that entitled moron can be banned from all licensed venues. Try going in and getting your nicotine fix when that happens lol
With regard to the woman who tried to steal breast milk from the refrigerator at the daycare, I certainly hope her reputation followed her. If I were that daycare director, I would have notified every daycare in the area about the risk this woman poses. It's sad for her son, but thanks to her behavior they deserve to be blacklisted.
The nanny blew it. She should have said, Oh She does? Can I get the name of that place? My employer was looking for a service like that. Then I'd have told that place that their employee is harassing people. And if it were someone else, she'd be arrested for harassment and disturbing the peace.
@@gorilladisco9108 , so you're afraid of immigrants are you? Afraid of people like your ancestors...parents or grandparents. Nobody except a native American is originally from America. We all are descendants of immigrants. Stop being prejudiced and misogynistic. It's disgusting.
Donated breast milk is common at hospitals. BUT I know that they do something, testing or pasteurizing, so it's safer to give to someone else. Kids drinking breast milk from someone other than their own mom, can cause allergic reactions.
@@nicholerubes2959 oh completely, I know in some poorer countries areas it's common for family members to breast feed eachothers kids especially if the moms milk isn't coming But some random persons milk that's just creepy
Story 4: We do drink cow’s milk, but they are raised for the purpose of being milked. There are regulations to make sure that it is safe. Even then, raw cow’s milk can cause problems if not handled properly. With humans, there are too many variables. I’d imagine that people who donate their breast milk would have a lot of restrictions.
Also the ones of us who can drink milk are the freaks- no other mammal in the world drinks milk after weaning ergo the Lactose intolerant ones are the genetically normal ones...
3: When I had my first son I tried nursing but he couldn't latch on. I tried for a few weeks but he was losing weight so I had no choice but to switch to formula. The first time I had to go to the store to buy some I was exhausted, upset, clueless... the works. So I'm in the aisle, squatting down to look at the cans and I feel someone walk up behind me and just stop. I turned around to look up and there's this middle aged woman with a look of disgust on her face and she's says, "You know... its not nice to fool mother nature. Formula isn't good for a baby's health. " I kinda snapped inside because this hag just judged me with absolutely no understanding of my situation. Now..Im a nice person, I dont like to be confrontational... especially at that age (23 at the time)...but I was seeing red. I stood up (I was 5'10" 160 just gave birth and still needed to drop 25lbs 🤷♀️) and this woman was...petite. I bent down so we were eye to eye and all I said was "Telling me what's best for my baby... isn't great for YOUR health. FỤÇƘ ỌFF." To her credit she kept her mouth shut and walked off. Most ppl understand that life is complicated and babies are complicated... they aren't a bunch of clones with the same needs. The only other time I ever had an issue nursing was when my daughter was an infant and my family went out to eat and we were seated on the deck out back. The entire place was fenced in... and I always kept myself covered in public, but there was one weirdo who thought it was a peep show, so my husband ran him out of the restaurant. About 10 minutes later, something near the fence catches my eye and I look up to see that same guy with his eyes and nose peeking over the fence at me. 😂 It's not funny... but he looked so pathetic just trying to see my chest I started laughing. My husband jumped up but the guy ran... didn't see him again after that. Seriously though... hes never seen dirty mags? Go buy one and leave ppl alone! (Before the internet got popular)
I'm currently breastfeeding my youngest (7months old) and then we were asked to foster a baby (4 months old) I had both babies with me while buying the best formula for our foster baby. A lady walks up to me and says, "You should be breastfeeding!" I tell her I am, but my foster baby needs food. She begins telling me I can feed them both. No lady, I can't, for several reasons. We need a court order to breastfeed a foster baby. The milk must be pumped, frozen, and then thawed and fed. I also am barely making enough for my baby. Does this stop the lady from chastizing me? No. She informs me I need to breastfeed both babies. Lady, he is 4 months old, he wouldn't latch even if I tried.... but I can't try. it's illegal. This isn't my baby, and the mother hasn't asked me to be a wet nurse, I don't have enough for 2, and I really dont want to be glued to a pump just to freeze it. But I'll buy him the very best formula money can buy. She was displeased. That's ok. Baby boy loved his bottles, and my baby nursed happily while I formula fed my foster baby. It works for us.
Story 3: Everyone has preferences on how to feed their baby (as long as it's safe). If someone doesn't want to breastfeed, then that's okay. That's not something to try to fire someone over. Not to mention that if Karen was really mad about the feeding, she should complain to the kid's parents about it. OP was just following directions
That was wild, usually people are crazy about people who do breastfeed in public being “inappropriate” rather than the opposite. Lady was clearly overcompensating
First of all, OP told her that her employers number is personal information & she would not be giving it to her. WHAT??? OP almost everything you gave her should have had the same answer Not Your Business!!! OP should have asked hubs where crazy pants worked, since crazy pants asked for OP's job info. Then called them to complain about crazy pants😊!!! I mean, tit for tat, right😂???
When I was in the hospital after having a C-section, the Milk Nazis came after me for not wanting to breastfeed. One, I didn't want to, two, I hadn't been as a baby and I suffered no ill effects, three, my job would have made it hard to do so, and four, because it bears repeating, I. Didn't. Want. To! Why can't people understand that?
Plus not all bottles are formula. Some mothers prepare bottles of breast milk for situations just like this, when someone else is watching the baby. Or they might bottle the excess for convenience, or if the baby’s hunger doesn’t line up with the mother’s milk availability, or if they simply don’t want to breastfeed in public. Or just because they want to.
I have heard of instances where if a mother produces alot of milk, there are some places that will take donations. It can be frozen til needed. Say a mother dies during birth, or sometimes mom just cant produce enough milk.
TRUE! Still the audacity to demand that the 10 cents was worthy of a FREE pack of smokes from OP is WILD!!! Dude didn't come back because he was embarrassed to show his face! LOL
I breastfed all 8 of my children. It was a wonderful experience, I don't judge any mother who bottle feeds and I would never ask why they don't. NOMFB. My mother wasn't able to breastfeed and my siblings and I turned out just fine,
Kids sharing - I didn't force my kids to share. I made sure all had something. In fact my kids started sharing on their own. By not forcing kids and letting them have some opinions of their own, seems to work. Granted my kids had their not so shining moments but for most part they were great kids.
If I force my kids to share really depends on the situation. Usually it's just about them learning to take turns. This situation? No. Definitely not. That's the child's private home and nobody is coming in and bullying us in our home. I'd have to ban that lady.
When kids learn to share pretty much on their own, it means they are developing empathy properly, as well as the very important skill of perspective-taking in social settings (unlike the Main Characters and Entitled People have failed at developing). The child then sees how happy and thankful sharing can make someone, and internalize the rewarding feeling of being altruistic. This actually makes them more likely to share, donate, volunteer, help, and generally be kind in the future, all on their own and throughout their life. It is important however, to make sure they know it's OK to not share everything or every time, and to stop sharing with a person who takes advantage of their kindness (at least until they stop doing so). It helps them to avoid being a pushover and a people-pleaser to their own detriment. It can really help against social burnout and the effects thereof.
Story 5: Yeah, Jim sounds pretty unstable. Madly honking when a spot he wasn't entitled to was taken up, harassing people, even had a warrant over an assault. He doesn't own OP's driveway, so tough cookies
Yeah, I'm not surprised this entitled nitwit had a warrant with the attitude he had. If it was a cashier I bet that poor cashier gave him his total and Jim didn't agree with it or something like that.
@@ponyfairyVania Some Yanks still complain about prices being higher than what they calculated in their heads on account of sales tax being added at checkout. What's wrong with including the tax in the prices?
@@JamesDavy2009 yeah, but the thing is that most people are a bit more reasonable and understanding or at the very least begrudging or frustrated. But the point is that most people don't attack a cashier bad enough to have a warrant out for their arrest.
Story 3 - Why do people insist on pushing their own opinions onto other people when NOBODY WANTS IT! Plus OP mentioned multiple times that she’s a nanny not the kids mom. Seriously Shut Up And Mind You’re Own Damn Business!
Well... According to the story, it's part of Karen's employment description. She's just basically working UNSOLICITED OVERTIME FIELDWORK FOR FREE. 😆😆😆😆😆
Did she want the nanny to breast feed the baby? What good would reporting her to her employer do unless that’s what Karen had in mind? Karen doesn’t have a very good grasp on the physiology of breastfeeding.
Story4:bad idea kid could be allergic, should her 5 year old be drinking coffee? also the Op should have said when karen asked, NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!! Karen should have been charged with robbery.
I mean, my son received donated breast milk while he was in the NICU for a few days until my milk supply came in. I'm grateful for that donated milk! But, I do agree that it's strange for a mom of a 5 year old trying to basically steal food from a baby is just bonkers!
That whole thing about not breastfeeding your baby leading to developmental problems is ridiculous. I'd want to know where she was employed just to call them and ask why they would employ someone like that, and suggest maybe they should double check her qualifications.
Seriously. I worry for any patients that pass through her doors who have children with developmental disabilities. She probably makes them feel ashamed and personally responsible for their child's disability.
That lady from the fourth story.. . Just no. Ask a mother you know, instead of attempting to bully an employee. They should have told other daycares in the area too. Wow.
Fed is best. It doesn’t matter whether it’s breastfeeding, breast milk in a bottle or formula, as long as the baby is getting the nutrients their body needs that’s all that matters regarding feeding. It’s also nobody’s business but the parents (and paediatrician if necessary) what the baby is eating. Too many mothers are made to feel less than, inadequate, neglectful, a bad mother etc if they choose not to breastfeed. Nobody should be made to feel that way, especially by a health care professional, when they are vulnerable and needing support. Fed is best and whichever way is best for mother and baby is the right way. Rant over.
If the father can agree and support the mother's choice or inability, what right does anyone else think they have to object or argue. To not either keep their opinions or thoughts to themselves is just another reason for a mother to potentially experience post natal depression. Being a new parent is hard enough with that added in
@@squirrel9162003I’m dealing with this myself. I have a 1 month old I’m trying to breastfeed and my production isn’t where I’d like it to be to be able to start freezing it, and it’s taking a bit of a toll on my mental health. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is baby being fed. Some women have no choice but to use formula because they simply never started producing breast milk. DO NOT ASSUME EVERY MOTHER IS ABLE TO BREAST FEED (able being the key word here). Some women don’t want to and some women can’t. What’s it to you anyway? Not your baby, not your business, right?
It doesn't matter if the business is in her home, closed is closed. If the business hours end at 4, that's it. No more shopping, no more customers. The OP needs to enforce her hours just like any other business would. Many business will let customers finish up if they got there on time, but arriving 15 minutes after close should not be tolerated.
Exactly! It's not the shop owner's fault or their problem that this woman can't get there until after 4 PM. If she needs something that badly for her kids or husband, she can go find a regular retail store, most are open past 4 pm.
My cousin got curious about what my breast milk tasted like. Without my permission, my aunt gave her some. She then waited for everyone to be occupied and drank my whole stash. 🙄 gehhhhh~
My mother had five kids, I was middle one and I was the only one she couldn’t actually breastfeed because of medical issue. If she told my mother that awful judgment comments. I think there def would have been a throw down. Some women can’t breastfeed for a myriad of reasons, she should def leave her work at work.
My Mother & 2 Sisters tried breastfeeding & couldn't do it. My Niece was able to do so & I must say, she was very discreet about doing it in public. I was in the middle of a conversation with her when she placed a receiving blanket over my Great Niece's head & started breastfeeding her. I didn't even realize what she was doing until after she was finished & burped her.
Most laws are if you do it aka voluntarily then it is on you or you are the one in trouble. Lawyers are the ones who help idiots like this. But cops will arrest you especially when you confess to things that will go against you.
3rd story: Karen’s husband is pathetic. The fact that this has happened before more than once and he still didn’t tell her to sit down and shut the eff up, he’s just as much at fault for allowing that to happen
Moral of the story, if you have a warrant out for your arrest don't go around being a jerk. Although if he wasn't a jerk there probably wouldn't be a warrant in the first place.
This is why you hear about stupid criminal stories. "They" always forget that you "should" only break 1 law at a time. Lol, if you're transporting something illegal in your car and don't want to be pulled over. Don't be speeding the wrong way down the freeway. 🤓 You wouldn't think they'd have to be told this by their boss. But. 🤷♀️🤦♀️
@@lianabaddley8217 Or better yet, don't take off when the cops light you up. Getting caught for something that would result in a warning if you played nice is one thing, but if you get paranoid or raise your hackles, that would make you look even more suspicious.
Story 2: I would not tolerate that woman, or her family, for a minute. She would have been told to NEVER RETURN, well before the day described. And I would have called the police if she ever returned.
Sharing done right with the second story. Never force your kid to share their things. Forcing it makes kids realize their stuff isn't really their stuff and it makes them hate sharing.
This is about the breast-feeding advocate. I breast-fed my child because I wanted to and his doctor said it would help him so I breast-fed my child. It is no one else’s business whether you breast-feed your child or not I am very sorry that you were attacked by this arrogant witch.
Honestly with the second story, if at all possible, OP needs to build a separator wall to block off her shop area from her home area and lock the door. Typically not very safe to leave all of that within your personal living quarters anyway.
I was short on a few cents once on an envelope of photos and the cashier kindly waved away the missing pennies. That's leagues different from expecting, let alone demanding, them to pay my bill for me.
Breastfeeding story is not completely accurate babies are gonna get sick weather their breast fed or not my youngest nephew was breast fed and was hospitalized several times already with breathing problems and respiratory illnesses he probably asthmatic but still to young to be officially diagnosed. Whereas my oldest nephew wasn't breast fed and rarely get sick with any thing more than the occasional cold
Its entirely inaccurate because she specifically said developmental disabilities. After birth, a baby can only become developmentally disabled if they receive an injury or infection that damages the brain. Any contaminated formula that has any risk of making a child sick would be pulled from the shelves, as we saw a few years ago.
I had a Karen encounter yesterday. A woman (typical Karen hairstyle) came through my line (I'm a cashier). I rang up here groceries .. no problem. When it came to her bottle of wine. I asked for her birthday. She immediately got mad and refused to tell me her birthday, so I told her I can't sell her any alcohol. She eventually paid for the rest of her items, then marched straight to the service desk where she tried to get me in trouble. The managers told her #1 New Hampshire law says the date of birthday is necessary. #2 our registers lock up until the date is entered. And #3 it's my job if I don't do it. She then marched off with a loud "I'm never coming back into this store again". One can only hope.
I have a reply on standby for when someone try to give me unsolicited advise (works best if it's health advise they dish out unwarranted): "I have some advise for you too: mind your own business and you won't end up with a black eye"
Story 3: Thank God for donors - premature babies too delicate for cows milk rely 100% on donated breast milk as their own mothers don't have any to give.
Obviously, she was quite eager to respect her own daughter's choice. Denying the other kid's right to choose for herself in the process is just ridiculous.
Story 4: I was really hoping the mother of the breastfed child would come in and hear this nonsense going on, just to tell the EM, "NO, YOU CAN'T HAVE MY BREAST MILK FOR YOUR SON!" In all that reading on the Internet about breastfeeding, didn't EM see anything about allergies or testing of breast milk for other children? Oh wait, she doesn't care, which is why she was caught raiding the fridge, smh. Yes, she deserved to get a new daycare, and I hope the daycare she was in alerted the new daycare she was going to of her shenanigans.
The breastfeeding monitor Karen kinda surprised me when she asked about the baby having all of its shots. Usually when I hear Karen stories they turn out to be virulent anti-vaxxers. Still, I would have put in a complaint to the facility about Karen harassing other customers.
The breast milk story is disturbing. Do they not realize that illnesses can be transmitted to the child by breast milk? Like STIs, TB, Hepatitis B, HIV, Etc. . Someone should have reported that mother for potentially endangering their child.
The most fearsome words I ever hear..."I read online..." You know that whatever follows is going to be absurd, misinformed, misinterpreted, or absolutely nightwinged excrement insanity. I've taken to interrupting such with, "Stop! WHERE on the internet did you read what I can only assume is going to be the most outlandish thing I've heard today?" Almost exclusively the person either can not or will not identify the source of the stupidest take on a subject they wouldn't understand with years of study. Tell me "I was on a breastfeeding advocacy site.." or " NASA's official website says..." But NEVER "This Men's Right's Group sub-reddit on the role of your heir's birther says..." Because 9/10 times whatever you are about to say is "information" filtered through a series of under-educated, biased, and foolish people who couldn't comprehend the original article that was under the misleading headline!

Well after that drunk got very quiet and slinged away. Our neighbour is a pretty chill dude and a gentle giant but he didn’t like being awake at 4am in the morning.
Snacks vs cigarettes story: If the idiot had been joking, that would have been one thing. But considering he was serious, I hope the manager(s)/owner actually banned him and if he showed back up, had him trespassed. Secondhand shop story: OP, under the circumstances it's past time to fire this woman as a customer. Tell her she's no longer welcome in your shop, period. Breastfeeding story: I would want the name and number of that Karen's supervisor, even the head of the agency's number. She was so far out of line as to not be funny and while maybe not fired, a decent suspension without pay is in order. Breast milk Karen story: Good grief! Attempting to STEAL someone else's breastmilk to give to a child that doesn't even need it? I'm glad she eliminated herself as a problem for that daycare. If I were the director of OP's daycare, I'd be contacting every other daycare in the area and warning them about Karen and why she was fired as a client. Honking story: Got to love these idiots with warrants out for their arrest who go out of their way to draw attention to themselves. Pick up service story: What I really don't understand is why the driver didn't use the NEIGHBOR'S driveway (if available) or at least park on the street in front of their house. I mean, if you're going to use OP's driveway, at least be considerate, don't run over the grass and don't honk when someone works nights and sleeps days.
When I had my first baby I had so much breast milk that I was able to donate it for premature babies, and even fed one doctor's baby whose wife thought breast feeding was beneath her. In the distant past, before powdered baby milk was invented, mothers who couldn't feed used to employ "whet nurses" - lactating mothers who would feed the employer's baby as well. As long as a mother is fit and well, she can feed as many babies as she likes - and the supply will eventually meet the demand after a few feeds. There is nothing wrong with one woman feeding another's baby, and is really handy when babysitting a breast fed baby. My friend and I had babies together and used to help each other out this way. With the uprising of AIDS, donated milk was not required as much but I understand that it's becoming popular again. I live in england.
As long as you and your friend had a consensual understanding that you were doing this for each other, and not going behind each others backs, I see absolutely no problem with this.
My friend and I had babies around the same time. 10 days after I gave birth to my daughter, my appendix ruptured and I was in 3 very potent antibiotics to help prevent sepsis. I couldn't breast feed for about 2 months. My friend would come and give me some of her excess milk every once in a while. It was really nice of her to do that. I didn't ask or expect it. She just offered and brought it to the hospital. I was really grateful for her at that time. I am still really by hateful for her
See I was listening to the first story with my own country’s price of smokes, hard to find a packet for less than $35 and that’s for 20. I’m glad I quit 6 years ago when they were $20 for 20. So I was dumbfounded when I heard he expected her to pay.
I don't understand how that first guy had the audacity to say contributing ten cents was the same as outright buying something for someone. That's worse than trying to pay for something with the "give a penny take a penny" plate.
My dad once told me that, In Italy during WWII, he saw a woman breastfeeding her 12-year-old son on the street. During that war in Europe, food was scarce.
Like a lot of stores we have a change bin. You’re short a penny or dime most likely the bin has one. It’s there for small inconveniences, not to pay ones whole bill. Once a guy was $1 short buying ice cream for his son. He told his son they had to put the ice cream away. Just by his luck there was enough spare change lying around. He did come around a week later to add change to the change bins. I breastfed my first child, my son up until he was 2. He did need a little formula to begin with but everything else was breast milk. My 2nd child, my daughter, I unfortunately got postpartum preeclampsia and it hindered my breast milk production so we had to give her some formula. She weaned herself off of my breast at 14 months. As a result my body just didn’t want to produce despite me pumping. My daughter is now 18 months. Both kids are healthy. Breastfeeding is great but it’s not the miracle done people want to make it sound like.
A friend told me this story. When my friend was born, one of the nurses was what her dad calls a lactate preacher. Friend's mom kept asking for a bottle, but the nurse was insisting that it was "more natural" to breastfeed and "established a strong bond with the baby" and all that crap. Friend's dad stuck up for his wife telling the nurse to just give her the bottle. The nurse didnt like that and went off on friend's dad saying that he didnt know what he was talking about, that it wasnt his business, mister Bob. Friend's dad; That would be *doctor* Bob. Nurse's face went pale, and she got friend's mom the bottle.
Depending on when the cigarette story was based on, cigarettes 🚬 cost $16-22 PER PACK. If you've got native status & only at certain stores, they're slightly cheaper. But, you have to have the status card for that.
I would not have a problem with giving my child the best milk of someone i trusted. My offered some of my breastmilk to my SIL for my nephew cause i was still nursing when he was born. I would not want breastmilk raw from a complete stranger though. I know there are milk banks where they have a process that kills any pathogens in the milk so that would be ok, but not raw from a stranger.
My cousin had a problem with one of those breastfeeding is best moms when she saw them bottle feeding their children, the thing is my cousin 's wife couldn't have children and they adopted their child, my mom also bottle fed me and my older brother because of medicine she has to be on. What the OP told the husband is true keep your work at work you don't know why someone is doing what they are doing, and there could be a reason for it.
5 years old is to old for breast milk but let me tell u , what I’m about to say is true. My oldest brother & my mother’s youngest aunt was born around the same time. My mother told me this , she didn’t have enough breast milk for my brother, so my grandmother had plenty so she fed my brother. This was in 1938.
Story 4: a friend of mine had to go through some in-depth retrovirus testing because of a name mixup on the breastmilk bags--her child and another child had the same first names and other child was given her child's milk.

@@lindabartholomew6435 Should have but she never paid for the services I provided anyway. Took her to court but she was slick and escaped service of the suit by moving.
A Wet nurse is a woman you hire To breastfeed your child with her milk. This is usually because some Mother's don't produce enough milk, but still want their child to be only on breast milk and not formula It's not uncommon to have another woman breastfeed your child, but it's definitely not done without talking to each other and agreeing on it
Damn Karen went from, "you can give my son breast milk to try," to, "my son has actively asked to try it," real quick! I mea did the son actually ask his mother randomly to try someone else's milk? Karen's gonna Karen I guess
Yeah but. Her son was 5 already. She had to read it online that breast milk was good?? Didn't her doctor's talk to her back when she was pregnant with said 5 year old?? Why is she only hearing about this now?
@@lianabaddley8217 awfully convenient, isn’t it? Plus what 5 year old looks at a lactating mother and says to themselves, “that’s where ima get my milk from!”
First Story: I bet that dude who stepped up was ready to pick the aggressive man up like a sack of potatoes! 😂 I know the look and feeling all too well.
story 4: I work in child care & we have rules againest giving breast milk to any child beside the intended child. What parents need to include when giving us breast milk or formula is Child's Full Name: Date and Time of Expression (Date pumped): Expiration Date:
Story four makes my head want to explode as well. As a career nurse and lifetime supporter of La Leche League I support breast feeding, but stealing milk like this for a five year old is simply astonishing. The level of entitlement here is as high as any I have seen in seventy plus years of dealing with Karens.
“Did you bring enough for the whole class?” Does not extend to breast milk.

'Stealing breastmilk from daycare...'
Me, washing my teeth before bed with a toothbrush in my mouth: stealing WHAT from WHERE?!!!
Her being a breastfeeding consultant makes that story so much worse imo.
I dont wanna imagine how she deals with women at her work who are unable to breastfeed.
when I was 14 I was buying a new book in a series, which I had been looking forward to for months and was physically very excited about it.
but, I was a full dollar short, and I was paying with cash. I was so sad I think I literally wilted at the register.
well, the college student manning the register looked around and like a secret, pulled a dollar out of her bra and rung me up and said "I hope you like the book, that series is one of my faves. have a good day hun" lol thank you random woman who didnt think a 14 year old was too old to help

Story 3 - As someone who *has* a developmental disability, mothers like that make me sick. Spreading lies about childhood disabilities to fear monger naive parents into raising THEIR child how YOU want. The only way a child can become developmentally disabled after birth is through an injury or infection that damages the brain. And while you should obviously not want to make your child disabled, it absolutely disgusts me when people try to use the idea that their child will turn out like ME to scare other parents into submission. So what if a freak accident happens and they do turn out like me? I'm just as lovable as a non-disabled person, I just can't do a few things by myself.
Giving breastmilk and pumping milk to give to the daycare, is such hard work! I would be beyond livid if someone tried to take it.
I literally cried when I pumped the other night and spilt an ounce and a half, out of the three ounces I pumped. It’s super hard and I was close to giving up.
Story 2: Yeahhhh, ain't no way in hell I'd let that lady come back into my home!! She would have been kicked and banned after the FIRST time!!
"You're big, so you can be big,"
5 seconds later . . . . . . . . . . . .
"She's too little to have an opinion."
Make up your mind, is she big or little?
I see why her kids don't listen to her. She doesn't even listen to herself.
I am wondering if she isn't able to ban the lady for some reason?
@@cj-aceyeah no spine and is a doormat.
Story 1 - Yeah I agree, there’s a big difference between giving a kid a dime to help them pay for a snack and paying for some guy’s cigarettes.
Especially since even the cheapest cigarettes now are like $4+ That's a 4000% difference.
Not only that, that entitled moron didnt realize one other thing. Any place that sells tobacco products has a license to do so, many in places like the US also sell alcohol as well so have that license. That therefore makes it a licensed venue, and many places have laws regarding such where such people as that entitled moron can be banned from all licensed venues. Try going in and getting your nicotine fix when that happens lol
There's a huge difference between helping ANYONE with a dime vs outright buying something for someone, that's so nuts.
Plot twist, he's the kid's father. Profit?
There's an even bigger difference between receiving help that is freely offered, and demanding free stuff.
With regard to the woman who tried to steal breast milk from the refrigerator at the daycare, I certainly hope her reputation followed her. If I were that daycare director, I would have notified every daycare in the area about the risk this woman poses. It's sad for her son, but thanks to her behavior they deserve to be blacklisted.
The nanny blew it. She should have said, Oh She does? Can I get the name of that place? My employer was looking for a service like that. Then I'd have told that place that their employee is harassing people. And if it were someone else, she'd be arrested for harassment and disturbing the peace.
A little research and she could probably find it.
Me thinks that lady has some mental health problems as well.

Donated breast milk is common at hospitals. BUT I know that they do something, testing or pasteurizing, so it's safer to give to someone else. Kids drinking breast milk from someone other than their own mom, can cause allergic reactions.
Or other factors. Some deseases can be pass thru breast milk.
@nicholerubes2959 yep only people I know who breast fed eschothers babies were family members usually aunt's
@@velvetdarksoul8741 they still have nurse maids. But they have to be tested some how. And I think only the really super rich have those

Story 4: We do drink cow’s milk, but they are raised for the purpose of being milked. There are regulations to make sure that it is safe. Even then, raw cow’s milk can cause problems if not handled properly. With humans, there are too many variables. I’d imagine that people who donate their breast milk would have a lot of restrictions.
Also the ones of us who can drink milk are the freaks- no other mammal in the world drinks milk after weaning ergo the Lactose intolerant ones are the genetically normal ones...

3: When I had my first son I tried nursing but he couldn't latch on. I tried for a few weeks but he was losing weight so I had no choice but to switch to formula.
The first time I had to go to the store to buy some I was exhausted, upset, clueless... the works.
So I'm in the aisle, squatting down to look at the cans and I feel someone walk up behind me and just stop. I turned around to look up and there's this middle aged woman with a look of disgust on her face and she's says, "You know... its not nice to fool mother nature. Formula isn't good for a baby's health. "
I kinda snapped inside because this hag just judged me with absolutely no understanding of my situation.
Now..Im a nice person, I dont like to be confrontational... especially at that age (23 at the time)...but I was seeing red.
I stood up (I was 5'10" 160 just gave birth and still needed to drop 25lbs 🤷♀️) and this woman was...petite. I bent down so we were eye to eye and all I said was "Telling me what's best for my baby... isn't great for YOUR health. FỤÇƘ ỌFF."
To her credit she kept her mouth shut and walked off.
Most ppl understand that life is complicated and babies are complicated... they aren't a bunch of clones with the same needs.
The only other time I ever had an issue nursing was when my daughter was an infant and my family went out to eat and we were seated on the deck out back. The entire place was fenced in... and I always kept myself covered in public, but there was one weirdo who thought it was a peep show, so my husband ran him out of the restaurant.
About 10 minutes later, something near the fence catches my eye and I look up to see that same guy with his eyes and nose peeking over the fence at me. 😂
It's not funny... but he looked so pathetic just trying to see my chest I started laughing.
My husband jumped up but the guy ran... didn't see him again after that.
Seriously though... hes never seen dirty mags? Go buy one and leave ppl alone! (Before the internet got popular)
The entitled mom who wants someone else's breast milk for her 5 year old is completely bonkers!

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm currently breastfeeding my youngest (7months old) and then we were asked to foster a baby (4 months old) I had both babies with me while buying the best formula for our foster baby. A lady walks up to me and says, "You should be breastfeeding!" I tell her I am, but my foster baby needs food. She begins telling me I can feed them both. No lady, I can't, for several reasons. We need a court order to breastfeed a foster baby. The milk must be pumped, frozen, and then thawed and fed. I also am barely making enough for my baby. Does this stop the lady from chastizing me? No. She informs me I need to breastfeed both babies. Lady, he is 4 months old, he wouldn't latch even if I tried.... but I can't try. it's illegal. This isn't my baby, and the mother hasn't asked me to be a wet nurse, I don't have enough for 2, and I really dont want to be glued to a pump just to freeze it. But I'll buy him the very best formula money can buy. She was displeased. That's ok. Baby boy loved his bottles, and my baby nursed happily while I formula fed my foster baby. It works for us.
Story 3: Everyone has preferences on how to feed their baby (as long as it's safe). If someone doesn't want to breastfeed, then that's okay. That's not something to try to fire someone over.
Not to mention that if Karen was really mad about the feeding, she should complain to the kid's parents about it. OP was just following directions
That was wild, usually people are crazy about people who do breastfeed in public being “inappropriate” rather than the opposite.
Lady was clearly overcompensating
First of all, OP told her that her employers number is personal information & she would not be giving it to her. WHAT??? OP almost everything you gave her should have had the same answer Not Your Business!!! OP should have asked hubs where crazy pants worked, since crazy pants asked for OP's job info. Then called them to complain about crazy pants😊!!! I mean, tit for tat, right😂???
When I was in the hospital after having a C-section, the Milk Nazis came after me for not wanting to breastfeed. One, I didn't want to, two, I hadn't been as a baby and I suffered no ill effects, three, my job would have made it hard to do so, and four, because it bears repeating, I. Didn't. Want. To! Why can't people understand that?
Plus not all bottles are formula. Some mothers prepare bottles of breast milk for situations just like this, when someone else is watching the baby.
Or they might bottle the excess for convenience, or if the baby’s hunger doesn’t line up with the mother’s milk availability, or if they simply don’t want to breastfeed in public. Or just because they want to.
I have heard of instances where if a mother produces alot of milk, there are some places that will take donations. It can be frozen til needed. Say a mother dies during birth, or sometimes mom just cant produce enough milk.
That first story was probably early 2000s so a pack of cigarettes 😂was probably around 5 dollars. Glad that they all pitched in for the kids snacks
TRUE! Still the audacity to demand that the 10 cents was worthy of a FREE pack of smokes from OP is WILD!!! Dude didn't come back because he was embarrassed to show his face! LOL
Average was less than $4.00 in 2005. It was close to $5 when I quit in about 2012. Best decision I've ever made.
Depending on the state because in New Jersey it was $6.00 in 2004.
Story 3.
Ok, if it's so important for that child to have brust milk, why don't YOU give YOUR'S Karen?
I breastfed all 8 of my children. It was a wonderful experience, I don't judge any mother who bottle feeds and I would never ask why they don't. NOMFB. My mother wasn't able to breastfeed and my siblings and I turned out just fine,
Kids sharing - I didn't force my kids to share. I made sure all had something. In fact my kids started sharing on their own. By not forcing kids and letting them have some opinions of their own, seems to work. Granted my kids had their not so shining moments but for most part they were great kids.
If I force my kids to share really depends on the situation. Usually it's just about them learning to take turns. This situation? No. Definitely not. That's the child's private home and nobody is coming in and bullying us in our home. I'd have to ban that lady.
@@lalachenault8523 Home is supposed to be a safe place, I agree...
When kids learn to share pretty much on their own, it means they are developing empathy properly, as well as the very important skill of perspective-taking in social settings (unlike the Main Characters and Entitled People have failed at developing). The child then sees how happy and thankful sharing can make someone, and internalize the rewarding feeling of being altruistic. This actually makes them more likely to share, donate, volunteer, help, and generally be kind in the future, all on their own and throughout their life.
It is important however, to make sure they know it's OK to not share everything or every time, and to stop sharing with a person who takes advantage of their kindness (at least until they stop doing so). It helps them to avoid being a pushover and a people-pleaser to their own detriment. It can really help against social burnout and the effects thereof.
Story 2: why has she not banned the b from the store? Just banning the children isnt enough.
Story 5: Yeah, Jim sounds pretty unstable. Madly honking when a spot he wasn't entitled to was taken up, harassing people, even had a warrant over an assault. He doesn't own OP's driveway, so tough cookies
Yeah, I'm not surprised this entitled nitwit had a warrant with the attitude he had. If it was a cashier I bet that poor cashier gave him his total and Jim didn't agree with it or something like that.
@@ponyfairyVania Some Yanks still complain about prices being higher than what they calculated in their heads on account of sales tax being added at checkout. What's wrong with including the tax in the prices?
@@JamesDavy2009 yeah, but the thing is that most people are a bit more reasonable and understanding or at the very least begrudging or frustrated. But the point is that most people don't attack a cashier bad enough to have a warrant out for their arrest.
Story 3 - Why do people insist on pushing their own opinions onto other people when NOBODY WANTS IT! Plus OP mentioned multiple times that she’s a nanny not the kids mom.
Seriously Shut Up And Mind You’re Own Damn Business!
Well... According to the story, it's part of Karen's employment description.
She's just basically working UNSOLICITED OVERTIME FIELDWORK FOR FREE.
😆😆😆😆😆
Did she want the nanny to breast feed the baby? What good would reporting her to her employer do unless that’s what Karen had in mind? Karen doesn’t have a very good grasp on the physiology of breastfeeding.
Women in activist type jobs are quite alike with women at church. They become busybodies and taking everything literally.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Story4:bad idea kid could be allergic, should her 5 year old be drinking coffee? also the Op should have said when karen asked, NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!! Karen should have been charged with robbery.
The milk is not for Billy. It's for Homelander. 😡
I mean, my son received donated breast milk while he was in the NICU for a few days until my milk supply came in. I'm grateful for that donated milk! But, I do agree that it's strange for a mom of a 5 year old trying to basically steal food from a baby is just bonkers!
Not to mention that five years old is _definitely_ old enough to be weaned!
All I can figure is she thinks her kid is the emperor of China.
That whole thing about not breastfeeding your baby leading to developmental problems is ridiculous. I'd want to know where she was employed just to call them and ask why they would employ someone like that, and suggest maybe they should double check her qualifications.
Seriously. I worry for any patients that pass through her doors who have children with developmental disabilities. She probably makes them feel ashamed and personally responsible for their child's disability.
That lady from the fourth story.. . Just no. Ask a mother you know, instead of attempting to bully an employee. They should have told other daycares in the area too. Wow.
If I was in that line … that guy wouldn’t be able to smoke cigarettes after ….
Story three. I’m surprised that OP didn’t tell Karen that it’s none of her business and to go away. Shoo!
I didn't understand why OP told Karen what was in the bag either. It belonged to another mother and was none of her business.
Fed is best. It doesn’t matter whether it’s breastfeeding, breast milk in a bottle or formula, as long as the baby is getting the nutrients their body needs that’s all that matters regarding feeding. It’s also nobody’s business but the parents (and paediatrician if necessary) what the baby is eating. Too many mothers are made to feel less than, inadequate, neglectful, a bad mother etc if they choose not to breastfeed. Nobody should be made to feel that way, especially by a health care professional, when they are vulnerable and needing support. Fed is best and whichever way is best for mother and baby is the right way. Rant over.
If the father can agree and support the mother's choice or inability, what right does anyone else think they have to object or argue.
To not either keep their opinions or thoughts to themselves is just another reason for a mother to potentially experience post natal depression. Being a new parent is hard enough with that added in
@@squirrel9162003I’m dealing with this myself. I have a 1 month old I’m trying to breastfeed and my production isn’t where I’d like it to be to be able to start freezing it, and it’s taking a bit of a toll on my mental health. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is baby being fed. Some women have no choice but to use formula because they simply never started producing breast milk.
DO NOT ASSUME EVERY MOTHER IS ABLE TO BREAST FEED (able being the key word here). Some women don’t want to and some women can’t. What’s it to you anyway? Not your baby, not your business, right?
It doesn't matter if the business is in her home, closed is closed. If the business hours end at 4, that's it. No more shopping, no more customers. The OP needs to enforce her hours just like any other business would. Many business will let customers finish up if they got there on time, but arriving 15 minutes after close should not be tolerated.
Exactly! It's not the shop owner's fault or their problem that this woman can't get there until after 4 PM. If she needs something that badly for her kids or husband, she can go find a regular retail store, most are open past 4 pm.
@@hodgeelmwood8677 - Spot on. 👍
My cousin got curious about what my breast milk tasted like. Without my permission, my aunt gave her some. She then waited for everyone to be occupied and drank my whole stash. 🙄 gehhhhh~
"She's young. She doesn't have an opinion."
"Then neither does your daughter. Hands off the doll."
Love the first and last stories. The cop asking the guy "Are you stupid?" was very gratifying.
My mother had five kids, I was middle one and I was the only one she couldn’t actually breastfeed because of medical issue. If she told my mother that awful judgment comments. I think there def would have been a throw down. Some women can’t breastfeed for a myriad of reasons, she should def leave her work at work.
My Mother & 2 Sisters tried breastfeeding & couldn't do it.
My Niece was able to do so & I must say, she was very discreet about doing it in public. I was in the middle of a conversation with her when she placed a receiving blanket over my Great Niece's head & started breastfeeding her. I didn't even realize what she was doing until after she was finished & burped her.

Story 1: That's not favoritism. There's a difference between a child and an adult.
21:09 If you have committed a crime and have a warrant for your arrest don't do dumb things.
Story 6 has provided a new example of what the stupid means.
Most laws are if you do it aka voluntarily then it is on you or you are the one in trouble. Lawyers are the ones who help idiots like this. But cops will arrest you especially when you confess to things that will go against you.
3rd story: Karen’s husband is pathetic. The fact that this has happened before more than once and he still didn’t tell her to sit down and shut the eff up, he’s just as much at fault for allowing that to happen
Moral of the story, if you have a warrant out for your arrest don't go around being a jerk. Although if he wasn't a jerk there probably wouldn't be a warrant in the first place.
This is why you hear about stupid criminal stories. "They" always forget that you "should" only break 1 law at a time. Lol, if you're transporting something illegal in your car and don't want to be pulled over. Don't be speeding the wrong way down the freeway. 🤓

@@lianabaddley8217 Or better yet, don't take off when the cops light you up. Getting caught for something that would result in a warning if you played nice is one thing, but if you get paranoid or raise your hackles, that would make you look even more suspicious.
Story 2: I would not tolerate that woman, or her family, for a minute. She would have been told to NEVER RETURN, well before the day described. And I would have called the police if she ever returned.
This reminds me of the Karen story where an entitled overgrown daddy's princess tries to demand another woman's uterus so Karen could have children
Sharing done right with the second story. Never force your kid to share their things. Forcing it makes kids realize their stuff isn't really their stuff and it makes them hate sharing.
I love the daily chokky milk fund for the kid, that's awesome.
This is about the breast-feeding advocate. I breast-fed my child because I wanted to and his doctor said it would help him so I breast-fed my child. It is no one else’s business whether you breast-feed your child or not I am very sorry that you were attacked by this arrogant witch.
Honestly with the second story, if at all possible, OP needs to build a separator wall to block off her shop area from her home area and lock the door. Typically not very safe to leave all of that within your personal living quarters anyway.
I was short on a few cents once on an envelope of photos and the cashier kindly waved away the missing pennies. That's leagues different from expecting, let alone demanding, them to pay my bill for me.
Breastfeeding story is not completely accurate babies are gonna get sick weather their breast fed or not my youngest nephew was breast fed and was hospitalized several times already with breathing problems and respiratory illnesses he probably asthmatic but still to young to be officially diagnosed. Whereas my oldest nephew wasn't breast fed and rarely get sick with any thing more than the occasional cold
Its entirely inaccurate because she specifically said developmental disabilities. After birth, a baby can only become developmentally disabled if they receive an injury or infection that damages the brain. Any contaminated formula that has any risk of making a child sick would be pulled from the shelves, as we saw a few years ago.
I had a Karen encounter yesterday. A woman (typical Karen hairstyle) came through my line (I'm a cashier). I rang up here groceries
.. no problem. When it came to her bottle of wine. I asked for her birthday. She immediately got mad and refused to tell me her birthday, so I told her I can't sell her any alcohol. She eventually paid for the rest of her items, then marched straight to the service desk where she tried to get me in trouble. The managers told her #1 New Hampshire law says the date of birthday is necessary. #2 our registers lock up until the date is entered. And #3 it's my job if I don't do it. She then marched off with a loud "I'm never coming back into this store again". One can only hope.
Who else remembers the bar scene from Hot Fuzz?
I have a reply on standby for when someone try to give me unsolicited advise (works best if it's health advise they dish out unwarranted): "I have some advise for you too: mind your own business and you won't end up with a black eye"
Story 3: Thank God for donors - premature babies too delicate for cows milk rely 100% on donated breast milk as their own mothers don't have any to give.
6:59 Karen seems to forget that children DO have a choice. No matter how young they are. Kuddo's for OP's daughter for sticking up for herself.
Obviously, she was quite eager to respect her own daughter's choice.
Denying the other kid's right to choose for herself in the process is just ridiculous.
Story 4: I was really hoping the mother of the breastfed child would come in and hear this nonsense going on, just to tell the EM, "NO, YOU CAN'T HAVE MY BREAST MILK FOR YOUR SON!" In all that reading on the Internet about breastfeeding, didn't EM see anything about allergies or testing of breast milk for other children? Oh wait, she doesn't care, which is why she was caught raiding the fridge, smh. Yes, she deserved to get a new daycare, and I hope the daycare she was in alerted the new daycare she was going to of her shenanigans.
Karens have a high level of confirmation bias.
The breastfeeding monitor Karen kinda surprised me when she asked about the baby having all of its shots. Usually when I hear Karen stories they turn out to be virulent anti-vaxxers. Still, I would have put in a complaint to the facility about Karen harassing other customers.
Last story, I started laughing when the temperature was mentioned because I just KNEW where this was going 😅😂 🤣
The breast milk story is disturbing. Do they not realize that illnesses can be transmitted to the child by breast milk? Like STIs, TB, Hepatitis B, HIV, Etc. . Someone should have reported that mother for potentially endangering their child.
A lot of people bottle feed their infant with their breast milk. I believe in allowing both. Just fed the baby.

I remember a few years back in our street we had some drunk guy screaming up a fuss at 4am in the morning being extremely loud while banging on people’s door yelling ‘fight me’ so a Fijian man next door who literally was a walking wall of muscle due him being a rugby player came out to challenge this drunk idiot. Well after that drunk got very quiet and slinged away. Our neighbour is a pretty chill dude and a gentle giant but he didn’t like being awake at 4am in the morning.
I couldn't help but chuckle at the juxtaposition between the drunk guy and Vegeta from DBZA wanting a fight with Gohan.
Story 3: Could be fake, but if real then the most notable thing I can say is breastfeeding and bottle feeding are equal in terms of health.
Snacks vs cigarettes story: If the idiot had been joking, that would have been one thing. But considering he was serious, I hope the manager(s)/owner actually banned him and if he showed back up, had him trespassed.
Secondhand shop story: OP, under the circumstances it's past time to fire this woman as a customer. Tell her she's no longer welcome in your shop, period.
Breastfeeding story: I would want the name and number of that Karen's supervisor, even the head of the agency's number. She was so far out of line as to not be funny and while maybe not fired, a decent suspension without pay is in order.
Breast milk Karen story: Good grief! Attempting to STEAL someone else's breastmilk to give to a child that doesn't even need it? I'm glad she eliminated herself as a problem for that daycare. If I were the director of OP's daycare, I'd be contacting every other daycare in the area and warning them about Karen and why she was fired as a client.
Honking story: Got to love these idiots with warrants out for their arrest who go out of their way to draw attention to themselves.
Pick up service story: What I really don't understand is why the driver didn't use the NEIGHBOR'S driveway (if available) or at least park on the street in front of their house. I mean, if you're going to use OP's driveway, at least be considerate, don't run over the grass and don't honk when someone works nights and sleeps days.
When I had my first baby I had so much breast milk that I was able to donate it for premature babies, and even fed one doctor's baby whose wife thought breast feeding was beneath her.
In the distant past, before powdered baby milk was invented, mothers who couldn't feed used to employ "whet nurses" - lactating mothers who would feed the employer's baby as well.
As long as a mother is fit and well, she can feed as many babies as she likes - and the supply will eventually meet the demand after a few feeds.
There is nothing wrong with one woman feeding another's baby, and is really handy when babysitting a breast fed baby.
My friend and I had babies together and used to help each other out this way.
With the uprising of AIDS, donated milk was not required as much but I understand that it's becoming popular again.
I live in england.
As long as you and your friend had a consensual understanding that you were doing this for each other, and not going behind each others backs, I see absolutely no problem with this.
5: I wonder if Jim was the guy from the other story that tried to grab the pregnant cashier when she wouldn't pay for his cigarettes. 😂
My friend and I had babies around the same time. 10 days after I gave birth to my daughter, my appendix ruptured and I was in 3 very potent antibiotics to help prevent sepsis. I couldn't breast feed for about 2 months. My friend would come and give me some of her excess milk every once in a while. It was really nice of her to do that. I didn't ask or expect it. She just offered and brought it to the hospital. I was really grateful for her at that time. I am still really by hateful for her
See I was listening to the first story with my own country’s price of smokes, hard to find a packet for less than $35 and that’s for 20. I’m glad I quit 6 years ago when they were $20 for 20. So I was dumbfounded when I heard he expected her to pay.
I don't understand how that first guy had the audacity to say contributing ten cents was the same as outright buying something for someone. That's worse than trying to pay for something with the "give a penny take a penny" plate.
Bonkers logic…but then again, this is Uncle Sam's Wackyland.
That last story I have heard several times and every time I hear it I just laugh my butt off
My dad once told me that, In Italy during WWII, he saw a woman breastfeeding her 12-year-old son on the street. During that war in Europe, food was scarce.
Now that’s fine, if it was all that she had to feed her kid when he needed it. A little creepy, ofc, but in war, you make do with what you have.
Like a lot of stores we have a change bin. You’re short a penny or dime most likely the bin has one. It’s there for small inconveniences, not to pay ones whole bill. Once a guy was $1 short buying ice cream for his son. He told his son they had to put the ice cream away. Just by his luck there was enough spare change lying around. He did come around a week later to add change to the change bins.
I breastfed my first child, my son up until he was 2. He did need a little formula to begin with but everything else was breast milk. My 2nd child, my daughter, I unfortunately got postpartum preeclampsia and it hindered my breast milk production so we had to give her some formula. She weaned herself off of my breast at 14 months. As a result my body just didn’t want to produce despite me pumping. My daughter is now 18 months. Both kids are healthy. Breastfeeding is great but it’s not the miracle done people want to make it sound like.
A friend told me this story. When my friend was born, one of the nurses was what her dad calls a lactate preacher. Friend's mom kept asking for a bottle, but the nurse was insisting that it was "more natural" to breastfeed and "established a strong bond with the baby" and all that crap. Friend's dad stuck up for his wife telling the nurse to just give her the bottle. The nurse didnt like that and went off on friend's dad saying that he didnt know what he was talking about, that it wasnt his business, mister Bob. Friend's dad; That would be *doctor* Bob. Nurse's face went pale, and she got friend's mom the bottle.
Story 3: Wait, its happened before?! WHAT!
Depending on when the cigarette story was based on, cigarettes 🚬 cost $16-22 PER PACK. If you've got native status & only at certain stores, they're slightly cheaper. But, you have to have the status card for that.
Nowadays they're at least 40 dollarbucks.
On the daycare breast milk thing, like a Karen would pay for it from donor if she think that she can get it free.
I would not have a problem with giving my child the best milk of someone i trusted. My offered some of my breastmilk to my SIL for my nephew cause i was still nursing when he was born. I would not want breastmilk raw from a complete stranger though. I know there are milk banks where they have a process that kills any pathogens in the milk so that would be ok, but not raw from a stranger.
My cousin had a problem with one of those breastfeeding is best moms when she saw them bottle feeding their children, the thing is my cousin 's wife couldn't have children and they adopted their child, my mom also bottle fed me and my older brother because of medicine she has to be on. What the OP told the husband is true keep your work at work you don't know why someone is doing what they are doing, and there could be a reason for it.
Story 6: I was wondering why he didn’t press charges but he got karma anyway 😂
The fourth story about the breastmilk. I'm pretty sure that I have read read that it isn't necessarily safe to use breastmilk from an unknown person.
Story 1. I agree with you Dark Fluff narrator
Last story. BRAVO 👏👏 BRAVO 👏👏
5 years old is to old for breast milk but let me tell u , what I’m about to say is true. My oldest brother & my mother’s youngest aunt was born around the same time. My mother told me this , she didn’t have enough breast milk for my brother, so my grandmother had plenty so she fed my brother. This was in 1938.

Karen caught doing a
Milk Run....
😆😆😆😆
Story 4: a friend of mine had to go through some in-depth retrovirus testing because of a name mixup on the breastmilk bags--her child and another child had the same first names and other child was given her child's milk.
Free babysitting/in home store story: I sew for other people. I once had a client who, during the initial consultation and all fittings, would bring her 2-3 (can't remember now) young kids with her. I would be forced to set up an area for them to sit and feed them a snack and give them something to do. Annoying as h3ll.
You should add an extra charge for babysitting!!!
@@lindabartholomew6435 Should have but she never paid for the services I provided anyway. Took her to court but she was slick and escaped service of the suit by moving.
A Wet nurse is a woman you hire To breastfeed your child with her milk. This is usually because some Mother's don't produce enough milk, but still want their child to be only on breast milk and not formula
It's not uncommon to have another woman breastfeed your child, but it's definitely not done without talking to each other and agreeing on it
Damn Karen went from, "you can give my son breast milk to try," to, "my son has actively asked to try it," real quick! I mea did the son actually ask his mother randomly to try someone else's milk? Karen's gonna Karen I guess
Yeah but. Her son was 5 already. She had to read it online that breast milk was good?? Didn't her doctor's talk to her back when she was pregnant with said 5 year old?? Why is she only hearing about this now?
@@lianabaddley8217 awfully convenient, isn’t it? Plus what 5 year old looks at a lactating mother and says to themselves, “that’s where ima get my milk from!”
First Story: I bet that dude who stepped up was ready to pick the aggressive man up like a sack of potatoes! 😂 I know the look and feeling all too well.
story 4: I work in child care & we have rules againest giving breast milk to any child beside the intended child.
What parents need to include when giving us breast milk or formula is
Child's Full Name:
Date and Time of Expression (Date pumped):
Expiration Date:
Expression? Oh ... you mean Squeezed Out? 😯

Story four makes my head want to explode as well. As a career nurse and lifetime supporter of La Leche League I support breast feeding, but stealing milk like this for a five year old is simply astonishing. The level of entitlement here is as high as any I have seen in seventy plus years of dealing with Karens.
