Is It Really Ok If People Reprimand My Child?

Dr. Naomi throws a bone to the single folks still braving the dating hellscape, while the hosts unpack our deeply inconvenient need for human connection as friendships shift, families evolve, and everyone gets weird. A toddler mom is caught off-guard when a new mom friend scolds her kid and needs advice on how to address it without burning the playgroup to the ground. This week’s Betchicist comes from a proud member of the Clean Plate Club who’s endlessly roasted by in-laws that abandon half-eaten meals and act like leftovers are a moral failure. After one too many run-ins with physical anxiety (yes, the dreaded gurgling stomach), a very nervous Betch needs an intention to calm the fear of having to run to the bathroom at work. Meanwhile, a generous mom is triggered when her offer of free baby clothes somehow turns into a list of demands, and a girlfriend wonders if her boyfriend’s family buying her the wrong size clothes is an honest mistake—or a deeply passive-aggressive cry for help.
