Some new parents can be scared and seem picky when a new baby has come in their lives. Especially with their first baby, parents want to protect their children. Other parents may see new parents as being very picky!

The Culpeppers (including the kids!) have a great question about new parents in the family!

Question to the family

No one is allowed to touch the new baby. The family dives deep into the “whys” and Mr. and Mrs. Culpepper and the kids have some really sound advice. Were you a parent who was protective of your baby or did you experience picky parents with their new baby?

Sometimes, parents are not picky at all but protecting their children from common viruses, illnesses and more severe challenges. We must be mindful to respect a new parent’s wishes, even if we don’t know the reason.

Special welcome to the Culpepper children, DJ, Christine and Linda Culpepper!
