If a tree falls in the forest and no one sees it, does it make a sound??
If your child is driving you crazy but your spouse isn't witness to it, can you actually end up in a straight jacket??
I have a (nameless) child who is driving me NUTS.
This makes me do a few things:
- Cry a few tears (for several reasons)
- Wonder if my parenting skills are non-existent
- Wonder where in the heck did I 'go wrong' with our parenting so far
- Get super frustrated at where I am
- Think maybe- it was just a bad morning/day/week - we all have those and maybe it is just a short phase/ bad day for said child
- Write on a blog to the whole cyber world that I am questioning my child's behavior and my skills as parent, just so I can release some pent up frustration and anger....
And actually - I am feeling a bit better. I know (deep, deep inside) that I'm not alone. Not only to I have my Lord to turn to, but I am literally not alone, because other mothers are fighting sanity issues of their own.
