So at Gymboree today I'm watching Maia and holding Kaila and this lady who brings her grandaughter walks up to me, grabs Kaila's feet and starts rubbing and turning them outward. At first I thought she was just grabbing her feet the way that old ladies sometimes do cause they like touching babies. But then I saw she was twisting them out. Then she tells me that I should do that so she won't be bow-legged. I told her, no I won't do that, all babies are bow-legged and that I won't do anything unless a doctor tells me to. She goes on about how her grandaughter was bow-legged but she did that and she's fine now. Are you kidding me? If she had really been bow-legged she would have needed medical treatment, probably a brace, not you turning her feet out. How would that change her physical structure? Anyway, just venting cause this woman annoys me in general. She's always saying stuff like that to the parents at Gymboree. The other day she scolded a mother for cutting her son's hair. She can get his hair cut if she wants to! Geez....sorry, lol
Re: Crazy Old Lady vent
With this person, I would NOT just nod and say thank you. She would get a piece of my mind! I would also complain to the management at Gymboree.

Wow I would be so offended at someone making a comment like that. People serioulsy do not think before they speak.
I think this old lady can be part of Jackie's tact class. At the rate we are going it seems class is going to be full LOL
Yup, couldn't keep quiet on this one. All bets are off once you touch my kid. I can only be polite to people giving their opinions, not to those twisting a baby's feet.
