The new mum says she believes consent is extremely important
A woman who believes consent is extremely important says she is not comfortable with anyone else changing her six-month old son's nappy apart from her and her husband. The new mum says enforcing these boundaries is all about "setting standards early" and would also expect her son's grandparents to ask her permission before cuddling her baby rather than just "grabbing" at him.
Taking to Mumsnet , the concerned mum explained: "Obviously I understand if we're not available due to nursery eventually or if someone else is babysitting then I'm happy for someone else to do it, however this has not yet been the case. A while ago, my mother-in-law was over and my baby started crying and rather than just give him back decided to take it upon herself to change him .
Seeking advice from other fellow mothers, she said: "I didn't say anything. At the time, my son was four months old and I was trying to be nice and friendly. However, I'm now starting to find her more overbearing and I'm getting close to drawing a line."
