Re: 10 year old & new baby | | React how you want, the fact is that you weren't WATCHING when the baby got PICKED UP, or the baby wouldn't have gotten picked up in the first place, would it.
If you know the kid doesn't listen to you, then you know once you're not looking, he's going to pick the baby up. If you're not watching, someone else should be. You've got a husband and a sixteen year old. The ten year old doesn't have to be the only one in the room.
And if your husband cares anything about his NEW child not getting dropped on his HEAD then he'll lay down the rules with his other kid not to run around with him like he's a cabbage patch baby.
So until your husband lays down the rules because this is pretty frickin important, I'm sure especially to you, then I wouldn't be taking my eyes off that baby if I were you.
I'm not calling you a bad mom, I'm not saying you don't know what you're doing. And I know ten year old boys can be brats. But since you know the situation, I don't see how it's safe to walk away and do the laundry with the baby left alone to be picked up by the ten year old. That's what I'm trying to say.
