I know that there were threads on what to say back to dumb comments but not sure where the thread it. It may have been on IG.
But for me, I think if I have some good things to say back, it will help instead of being caught off guard and not know what to say.
So I wanted to post this for people to list some things to say back to people. I have some.
Oh 3 girls or if they say 3 boys, 4 boys etc. etc are you going to try for that boy or girl?
I do not know. I have not given it any though. Or
When I know, you will be the first to know.
I have no clue. Are you really interested?
We are happy- used this once to the daycare being I did not want to get snooty and I was pregnant.
Oh 3 girls, 3 boys, 4 girls, 4 boys, your poor husband or poor wife
Thanks for noticing.
We are very happy. Thank you.
Answer- Isnt that something.
I am glad that you can see- depends where you are to use this one.
Then there is always the "silence" that you can use.
Or I also like changing the subject
They say rain for tomorrow. I am so glad the warm weather is coming. Did they say rain for tomorrow? Then they will repeat the question about the gender. Then you just repeat. I love the warm weather, snow (or whatever you say). Then they should get the hint. This can only be use I think if they ask you a question directly.
Sometimes there are those comments when walking in and out of door with your children or just passing in the street etc.
If anybody wants to ad to this, it can be fun.
I know that it usually does not make us feel better if we are sad inside, but at least it helps us put others in their place.
Have fun with the come backs!!!!!!!!!
