Seriously what is wrong with people?

I am sitting at work minding my own business when a co-worker started asking me about how am I going to afford formula for two babies. Then about 4 other co-workers come into the conversation and tell me how hard it was with one. I tell them I will be fine, I will make it work. They tell me no it is a lot.

One girl suggested I lie to the government and try to get wick! I am in a good job and making decent money why would I ever do such a thing? She says it is worth it.

One girl looked up the prices for formula to show me how expensive it is. My sister just had a baby in February and I am well aware of the prices. But I am also well aware there are coupons out there to help with prices. They tell me well you are having two and formula will just go so fast.

I looked at them and said really what is wrong with all of you trying to scare a pregnant woman like this. They all just laugh and say they just are warning me.

They then go into things that can be wrong with babies!

Nice huh?

ugh people are so annoying!
and there are so many ways to get discounts on formula - even just calling the formula company and telling them you have 2 on their formula will get you extra coupons and samples!

Re: Seriously what is wrong with people?

that is just rude! I don't get why people feel the need to give their opinions when not asked. Next time just tell them you are not asking any of them to help you pay for it so they shouldn't worry about it!

Wow. How rude.

I would seriously tell them to SHUT UP unless they are coming over to write you a check. I'm not even kidding, I would be equally rude.
