I feel like a bad parent


I’m 20 and have a 7 month old boy. He’s the reason why I smile everyday and want to better myself. I want to get a good job and make he has everything he needs.I live with my parents at the moment. Being Latino, my parents had a lot of kids, 8 in total, with me being #4.Everyday they something that makes me question myself. “You never take care of him.” “He’s whining and you don’t do anything?” “You never carry him.” “You’re a bad mom.” “He’s basically my child.” “You left him alone? (In his crib, playing with toy. I take away his toy in the night.) I feel bad for him.”I’m my parent’s first kid to have a kid. So he’s their first grandson. My sisters say they can tell me what’s good for the baby and the ‘correct’ to take care of him because they have taken care of babies before and take care of my little brother who is 5.I know that I’m over thinking it and I’m should be proud because he’s growing up to be strong, happy and cuddled but sometimes I feel like I’m not doing my best or I’m being a bad mom. I don’t know how to get I’ve this feeling.And god forbid telling my family about my feelings because they would just say I’m being over dramatic. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/3xdX7zM
