Visited the zoo on Monday with my 12 month girl. She’s a climber. Her hand got stuck climbing up a bench. She was screaming Bc she was angry. I encouraged to push. That’s it. People stared at me like I was alien. 3 seconds later, she’s free and bouncing on top of the bench. She’s more like a silver back. I was disturbed at people’s reaction. That letting her work through a difficulty was some horrific miscarriage of parenting.
