Parenting ain't easy

Parenting has never been a simple task whether you have a village or you are flying solo. This morning I had someone critique my parenting and it flew all over me. I mean honestly where do people feel the need to critique others like they are so perfect. We all have flaws and shortcomings as parents and individuals. We do not know what others walk through in their daily lives. Its hard to hear the truth sometimes but making someone feel bad about the choices they are making is flat out wrong. I do the best I can parenting my daughter and finding ways to support her. She has her own challenges just like any other kid in life. Her father and I are divorced and co-parenting can be a real struggle but managing that the best we can is benefiting her. Its not always rainbows but what part of life is always rainbows. I think we all cater to our children to some extent and allow them a little control over us. Compassion is key here. Support and understanding go a long way in life. We should take more time to listen and encourage rather than criticize and critique. We do not know what goes on behind closed doors or in the hearts of others each day. Take into consideration if you want to be a friend to someone how you approach them and talk to them means everything.
