I almost got upset at this complete stranger judging me and giving me input into my parenting decisions, but then Ellie giggled as if on cue, and we continued our snowy walk.
My daughter is weirdly obsessed with being outside. She always has been. Even in the cold winter months, there would come a point in the day when she would cry in our apartment until I took her out for a walk in the stroller. One day ,it was snowing, but Ellie was starting to fuss for fresh air. I bundled her up, put her in her winterized and extremely warm stroller, and went for a walk. It took about two minutes for some woman to approach me on the street and tell me to take my daughter inside. Go inside, it's inappropriate to be outdoors with a young baby in this weather, she told me. I almost got upset at this complete stranger judging me and giving me input into my parenting decisions, but then Ellie giggled as if on cue, and we continued our snowy walk. So, TLDR: take the advice that works for you and screw the rest.
