My son is just over one and a half and recently my Mum has been hounding me because he doesn't do what she says or listen. For example she will tell him "No don't do that!" And she will just keep telling him that thinking he will get it but he doesn't he would keep doing it forever, I on the other hand will tell him "No" a couple of times and then remove the situation from him. For example he loves getting on the table so I removed access to the chairs. I have baby gates in places like the toilet and stuff for obvious reasons and she wants me to remove them and start "Parenting him" am I in the wrong for using baby gates?

I'm conflicted and I hate arguing with my mum about my parenting skills. Please help. ... View more
