Hi Maha,

I’ve been there too. I remember taking my son to see friends in Alex and someone said to me, /Huwa 3aSfurah/ – He’s a “little bird”, and she was blaming me for this. He wasn’t especially small, but skinny – at least by local standards. Free parenting advice is pretty easy to find, and generally annoying. If you want it, you can always read Dr Spock.
