One thing that I have learnt from my parenting journey is that no one can be the "perfect" parent. It just isn't possible, no matter how hard we try. We all come to the role of parent with our own baggage, ideas, personalities and expectations, and we all have other things on our minds and demanding our time.
What is the perfect parent anyway?
So all we can be is good enough. Good enough not to totally screw up our kids, leave them with permanent major damage, or ruin thier chances for the future.
This blog is a few things I have learnt about this parenting caper, dealing with a few other things on the way. I should warn you I tend to be a bit opinionated!
I do have qualifications though, I have a degree in psychology and one in education too, both specialising in younger ages, so that is mainly what I'll be talking about. And of course I have two kids of my own, and plently of friends with kids too.
