Your 3 month old is a lot happier to be put down and to be with people other than his parents than your 2.5 year old is. And that's because your 2.5 year old slept with you. (happened tonight, despite the person knowing fully well both children co-sleep).
Oh you don't let your kid eat copious amount of candy? That child is deprived! (Happens on a regular basis, as we avoided candy and food high in artificial sugars for the year and a half, and restricted it to a single reasonable serving since).
You co-sleep with your children? That'll suck when they're 18 and still sleeping in your bed.
Your daughter is STILL rear-facing in the car (was until a week ago at which point she went past the height limit even though she has another 7lb before she hits the weight limit). My children rode in the lap! (same person has conveniently ignored our explanation of safety of rear vs. front facing car seats in the past).
Worst part of all the comments is people always picking on something they perceive as negative. The same people never comment the positives, such as the 2.5 consistently eating the same well-balanced meals adults eat, how well behaved and well spoken she is, etc. I'm well used to it by now, but still I take pleasure in shutting them down with smart-ass replies.
