Fan question! (Anonymous pls) Hi, I have a question. So one of my child’s family members has a new partner. I have only met this person a handful of times, but to be honest, I’m not sure I like them too much; one or two things have given me a reason to feel this way. Maybe I’m paranoid, but I won’t want my child being babysat if that person is around because I don’t know them well enough, and I’m not sure I’ll ever know them well enough to trust them around my child, even if my child’s relative is present!! Am I extreme??

Can’t be too careful now a days . Listen to your gut
Uhhh no thats your child
Nope, always better to trust your gut when it comes to things like this
Absolutely not extreme! It only takes seconds for a child to be traumatized for life and it’s our responsibility as parents to try to ensure our child’s safety to the best of our abilities.

I think it depends on who this relative is. If the relative is your child’s mom/dad and they trust them around the child during their allotted time with their child I don’t know if you have much say. If it’s not that, you can find a new sitter.

Nope. You’re allowed to not want strangers around your child.
Always trust your momma instincts
Trust your gut feelings. They normally never lie.
Listen to your little voice. It’s there for a reason and is usually not wrong. Praying your child stays safe.

You’re feeling this way for a reason. Your gut is trying to tell you something. Always listen to that feeling.
Nope, go with your gut. My children can’t be watched by a certain relative because I don’t know their new partner well enough and don’t think I ever will🤷♀️

Not at all! My mil dated a man last year that I just did not feel comfortable around. There was just something about him. They broke up but just recently got back together. He is not allowed around my daughter unless I’m present. My husband thinks it’s nothing but he just irks me the wrong way.

Listen to your gut because it’s telling you something!
That happened to me!
Although that family member was never in a position to babysit my child, their spouse rubbed me the wrong way.
A few years later and they were caught cheating with a system full of drugs.
Our guts are never wrong.

I assuming the family member is not the childs father? In that case you do not need to explain yourself just dont ask that member of the family to babysit.

Why would that be extreme? Your child’s safety comes before making ANY relative’s partner feel accepted OR comfortable. Use your gut. If the relative gets upset, oh well. 
Kids come first.

I would trust my feeling where my children are concerned. Just do not ask them to babyset your children.if i couldn’t take mine with me we didn’t go. My mama didn’t watch our kids so we could go out and have a good time only watched my kids for me to go to the doctor and to go christmas shopping for them when she called for them i took them but i didn’t ask her to keep them very many times. My kids my place not hers. She had done her share with 5 kids and no help. She was a good christian woman and from her i learnt how to be a good mama. She is dearly missed.

Look into having backround checks done on said person if u are worried, but at the very least it sounds like you need to raise your concerns if they are regular relatives in ur childs life, something may seem off but it could turn out to be opposite of whatever you are thinking.

Never judge a book by its cover, I had always talked rubbish about the spiritual healers because i was living a luxurious life with my husband and kids. I never believed that anyone can solve someone’s problems. I could rudely reply to the posts about the healers with insults little didi know that one day they will help me. It started when a strange disease attacked one of my kid for almost eight months. I visited all the hospitals in Europe but the doctors couldn’t see the disease. I went to pastors, Sheiks, Sisters, and priests but couldn’t see any change. I sold all of my properties and lost my business because I was charged lots of money. I went back to Zero. My husband was used to a luxurious life since he was coming from a rich family. He started losing interest in me, disrespected me, insulted me in our kids’ presence, all my in-laws hate me. I had no shoulder to cry on.I was left with no hope. The most heartbreaking part is when my husband started cheating on me with one of the member of Parliament which I won’t mention her name. I got depressed and tried to commit suicide until when my friend asked me to contact papa marere . I had lost hope and besides didn’t trust healers. I called them scammers. My friend used his cellphone and called him. he gave him a date to go to her office and on that date, my friend picked me very early in the morning and took me there. I explained everything to him. he asked us to go back and bring the sick kid and we did so. he cast his spells and after a few hours, my son was healed. And he also told me that my husband will return that he has settled that After a few weeks my husband came back home and apologized to me. he gave me a ring for my business and as I speak now am not complaining. I got back everything.+2348109805184 is his number for help. Email him via ( marerespells@gmail. com ) he is INCREDIBLE.
Everyone has a life story, I am so happy to have my lover back again after 8 good months of separation. I never thought we will live a happy life together again, but today, I am so glad for what (dr osagiede ) spell caster did for me as he cast a reconciliation love spell for me to bring back my Ex to live together with me again. My testimony to everyone who is in the same situation as i was,should contact him on drosagiedelovespellcaster@gmail.com or add him on Whats-app: +2349055874177:rose:

Parental instincts are usually right.
Do your homework, do all the proper internet searches that have already been suggested. And have that difficult talk. It’s not about you or your former partners feelings, it’s about the child.
Good luck.

The main thing is, so you trust said relative??? Would said relative have a bar person around your son?? If the answer is you don’t trust your relative then you’re correct, but if the answer is you do then there should be no issue.
No. Mommas instincts are always right. If something about that person makes you feel uncomfortable then you have every right to not want them around your children.

Listen to bnb your gut, once something bad happens you cant go back or undo it! Prevention is always better than trying to repair a bad situation. And that family member may not be able to see the forest for the trees, in a manner of speaking. Gut instinct is there for a reason, listen to it!!
You are not wrong at all! Trust ur gut!
Always go with your instinct
