Parenting Is Stressful and Hard

July 26

 

Parenting Is Stressful

 

 

Parenting Attitudes Change.

I don’t think that I liked my parents much growing up. They were always telling me what to do…Always treating my brother better than me…And they never let me do anything that I wanted to…

It’s funny, but I heard my own children say much of the same things, even though when I was a teenager, I swore I would be a better parent than mine ever were.

For the most part, I like my parents today. They are  there when I need them. They call and let me know what’s going on back home and sometimes they just want to chat. I can tell that they are interested in what I am doing. 

Parenting is stressful.

When my son was little and on holidays at his grandparent’s farm, far away from me, he phoned to say that he shot a skunk…and no, he didn’t miss me.

Parenting is not for the weak at heart. It is not about unconditional love. In fact, you are often told that you are not loved and that you are the worst parent in the world.

Parenting is about the unconditional love that you give to your children often with very few rewards given back at time. Beverly Beuermann-King Click to tweet

 

Parents’ Day

Parents’ Day is established for “recognizing, uplifting, and supporting the role of parents in the rearing of children.” We know that the role of parents is crucial in the nurturing and development of children, and thus requires investment, focus, and commitment by the community around them.

Beverly’s 4 Tips Building Resiliency and Celebrating Parent’s Day:

  • Look through your family pictures and focus on the easy, fun and/or rewarding times, instead of the difficult times that you have had as a parent
  • Share a special memory with your child about your child. Let them know that you hold them dear to your heart
  • Share a special memory of your own childhood. Let your children know that you didn’t always value your parents, but you do now
  • Call your own parents and let them know that you appreciate them as parents

Parenting is stressful and hard. We need to support each other as parents and let each other know that perfection is not the key but self-confident, happy adult children is the reward.

Happy Parent’s Day!
