Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. You are unnecessarily worrying, I suggest. Please try to remember those olden days. Even you could have went through the same type of treatment from your grand parents or someone in your home. Home is a society. Child learns from father, mother, grand parents, your in laws, brother, sister, other relatives. Some uses harsh language, some soft words, some punish, some pamper, some say yes, some say no. Proper development constitutes all these differences in opinion.

Your child is 7. He is going to school. He is at his school for 5 to 6 hours daily. You do not have any control on what he does or learn there. Even in school he learns from different people. Teachers, maids, elder friends, his same age friends etc. Some uses harsh language, some soft words, some punish, some pamper, some say yes, some say no. Proper development constitutes all these differences in opinion.

Therefore, I suggest, you to ignore what others do to him Teach him what a mother should teach. Garnish it with love and affection (you can only do that much). Enjoy being with your child and make enjoy being with you. He will not be your child, but will be a developed child. Don't worry.
