Unsolicited advice has been with us since forever, but has become even more bothering with the rise of the Internet and social networks. Welcome to the internet, where everyone has an opinion about everything. Particularly about how you should live your life, raise your children, build your business, make life-altering choices. You name the topic, they have the solution because they know better than you, don’t they?
When I became a mother I unintentionally stepped into the world of unsolicited advice, where everyone knows how to raise your child better than you do. Truth is I’ve been living in this world before being a mom, but it didn’t affect me as much. In fact, it didn’t affect me at all in recent years. That’s because I’ve become indifferent to what other people say (or think, for that matter) and I’ve built the self-confidence I need to make informed decisions and live with their consequences, good or bad, afterwards.
