The friend should go to hospital to get breast milk donations or tell her friend to do so. Maybe they can help.

You’re not wrong and your “friend” doesn’t seem like much of a friend. … it didn’t hurt for her to ask, but when you understandably said no, she should have accepted it.

Your not wrong. You need a new friend. Your being a mother to your son, your providing for your son. Every formula mom is struggling but she’s trying to belittle you for simply caring for your child. The fact that she threw a fit & even had the audacity to demand it for free is astounding. Delete, Block & move on-you don’t need that friend.

You are not an asshole. If you had a whole pantry full, I could see you being called selfish. Three cans, though? No. You are not selfish. She had no right to react that way. I am sorry you had to go through that.
No you were not selfish and I don’t think I would call her a friend!

Omg!! She is not a friend!! She is wrong,l
You need a different friend.
Not at all don’t let your friends make you feel bad because your baby comes first it seems like she doesn’t understand where you are coming from
No. And wanting repayment for something you bought is fine too. Especially for something like $45 dollars! I’m shocked if I had a friend who desperately needed formula and I had another friend who said yes but I need paid I’d be downloading whatever app I needed to… I also wouldn’t harangue my friend if she said no. 3 cans may not even be that much if it’s a specialty formula.

I would share my last can of formula with another baby… But not her if she refused to pay. You offered it to her for what you paid. If she cared enough for her child, she would have glady paid.
Why don’t she go look around to find one if she is so worried for the other baby

Um I would of told her to the hell out, stop going through my pantry… you have a right to take care of your child and care about them and only them if you please. I think she was way out of line. That’s just my view on this.

Nope. You are right for refusing after her outburst, and for wanting compensation in the first place. That is no friend to you. Personally, I would cut ties. I have no time for bull:poop: like that, especially now that I have a child of my own. You are your child’s advocate and provider and they should come first above all others.

No, you have your own child to feed
You are not wrong!!! And that is not a friend. Period.
Your not wrong and that’s not your friend. I could see if it were her baby and if she was my best friend.
Yes you need to take care of your baby first she should not get mad at you, you did what you could your a nice person
Your NOT wrong and i wouldn’t have gave or sold it.
You are not wrong and good for you putting your own child 1st. Of course you don’t want to see other children go without but you’ve got to put your child 1st. You did the right thing. Good job mom

you are not wrong!!! your friend was being selfish and it wasnt even her baby , a real friend would have understood , you are responsible for making sure your child is fed and okay , now if you had 30 cans that might be a different story but 3 cans, no way, you have nothing to feel bad over and i would tell that “friend” to lose your number because you are sure gonna lose hers

You are not wrong and she is most certainly not your friend. 3 cans for a six month old does not last that long. You’re running low too. It’s not your job to feed someone else’s child. It’s only your job to make sure your child is getting fed.

Wow, that was ignorant on her part, I would have e told her to get bent, after you finally agreed but were gonna charge her, as you should have. It wasn’t free for you, why should it be free for her, someone you don’t even know it sounds like. What is up with people and their damn entitled attitudes?! This shortage is awful, there are some things that we should never run out of, and infant formula is one of them, shame on your so called Karen friend, and shame on our country at this moment!
You need a new friend.

You said with the help of family you have enough cans and still have 3. I’m a strong believer in helping one another in times of need. Just like people helped you get formula it was your time to pay it forward. Of course you didn’t have to. No one his forced to be kind and help one another. It just would have been nice. And I bet if you did, you would have felt good about it and found another for yourself.

My sister had to drive over 6 hrs to bring me some formula my son went half a day without. No way in hell would I give any of his away. Maybe I would give a couple bottles but that’s about it. She is wrong for asking for it then to want for free come on everyone is struggling and to take advantage of you f that!

Absolutely not.
Why was she in your pantry?
Don’t let anyone yell at you and speak to you like that. That is not friendship. And formula is hard to find, take care of your own - you don’t want to run out. Can you sign up for WIC (Women, infants and children) or another program that helps provide formula and food for lower- income families?

Touch situation, but you have to think of your baby…You did the right thing…
So I had a lot of trouble getting my daughters formular years and years ago when a lot of it was being stockpiled and sent overseas. I’d drive for hours trying to find it, it was an incredibly stressful period. I had a lady ask me if I had any I could spare and I said no, but the next day I was planning on doing another trip around town to find more and they were offered to come with me or leave the money with me and I’ll help track it down in my travels. It’s an awful situation to be in but there’s only so much someone can do
That was unkind to put you in that position.
You don’t have to take from what you need for your baby.
I can tell you are a kind person or you wouldn’t be bothered.

Helping someone in need out of the goodness of your heart is wonderful if you can, however you must look out for your child first. How dare she try to make you feel guilty and expect it for free when you paid. Put entitled people like that where they belong (somewhere else).

Shes not a friend. I honestly can’t stand ppl with that kind of attitude. firstly she shouldn’t be rummaging your pantry, secondly who is she to be talking for someone else. Keep what little you have, your child comes first and anyone who comes into YOUR home and demands things of you seriously needs help! You didn’t do anything wrong and have a right to set boundaries and stand your ground. No means no, and she sounds like she has rejection issues.

Funny, I came in here and read your post at this moment, because my husband and I were Just discussing helping out others when we have to watch what we spend. So, your first obligation is to your family in this case your son. Your friend was asking for free food for her to give her friend whch she probably was going to charge her for it. If the situation is that bad you said she should be able to go to the Health Department for help in one directions or another for help. You did the right thing so stop feeling quility, she was trying to make money off you by giving your paid for formula to a baby you don’t even know, and make a profit for herself. Not a true friend. Forget it, you did the right thing.
