Amy Betters-Midtvedt recently wrote about an experience her kid had while playing MInecraft. The internet fired back with misconceptions she's ready to address.
Trying to fit certain ideals that have little to do with our true selves is a waste of time. Letting them go sets a better example for our kids than pretending.
The desire to conform to parents' expectations doesn't vanish as we enter adulthood. Regardless, we can raise our children as we see fit, without excuses.
The days can be long. The kids, challenging. And sometimes, despite our best efforts, we can't keep it together. But there's always a chance to try again.
Seem like every time you turn around you're wiping a runny nose, or scrambling to find sick kid coverage? It's because you are. And it's totally normal.
