Graceful Comebacks: Responding to Comments About Our Child’s Size

It’s amazing how often people feel comfortable commenting on our little one’s size—whether she’s petite or extra cuddly. At first, I struggled to find the right words that felt both kind and protective. Now, when someone says, “Wow, she’s so tiny!” or “He’s a big boy, isn’t he?” I simply smile and reply, “She’s just the right size for her!” It’s a gentle reminder that every child grows at their own pace, and what matters most is their happiness and health. Have you found a polite way to respond to these comments? I’d love to hear your experiences below! #GentleParenting #FamilyJourney #RaisingKids #ParentingWithGrace #Parenting
