The other day, my two and a half year old son and I, were shopping around at Target, minding our own business, when one of the sales associates passes us by, and mumbles under her breath, just loud enough for me to hear, "Oh! He still has a pacifier."
I guess my first question is, Why in the world are people that stupid, rude, uncouth, and mean? What ever happened to being polite? Or minding your own business? Social skills, perhaps? I wanted to rip this lady a new one, and embarrass her for embarrassing me and making me feel like a crappy parent.
Secondly, am I wrong for still letting my two and a half year old have a pacifier still? Is he too old for it? I honestly don't find anything wrong with it and plan to phase it out completely when he turns 3.
To sum up this whole thing, was this lady out of line for her snide little comment and should my toddler be using a pacifier at this age?
