Nothing sucks more than when you finally lay down your sleeping toddler; after fight rocking him for over an hour and he instantly wakes up.. I am currently hiding in the bathroom and I can hear him waiting for me to come out so he can scream at me to pick him up out of his bed. #mommingishard

Why does my teenager need to argue EVERYTHING??!!

Welcome to Day 7 of my 10 Day Listening Challenge! Arguing is a sign of respect because your teen trusts your beliefs and experiences to help them solidify their own beliefs and values. Arguing helps your teenager develop intellectual functions like critical analysis, risk assessment, independent decision making and more. The conflict happens when you take it personally or think you always need to take the opposing position. What if there’s another option? Rather than playing right and wrong, ask your teen open ended questions to encourage them to spar with their own thoughts, being less attached to whatever position they take. This supports better listening, lower conflict and more connection with your teen.

Sometimes a mom needs to be real, to let the struggle show. It doesn’t mean we don’t love our kids. In fact, we love them so much that we work ourselves to the bone for them and put ourselves last. So when someone says, “Oh don’t worry. This too shall pass. Enjoy every moment,” they just aren’t getting it.

He’s been sick all week, but come on. Would a piece of chicken nugget kill you? Or a banana? This is totally karma coming to bite me for my food pickiness as a kid.

Today was tough. For no reason otger than its day 25. But then she smiles at me, and most of the irritation melts away. . . . . . #mommingainteasy #mommingishard #momofgirls #honestmotherhood #inbeautyandchaos #justmomlife #joyfulmamas #alifeleadsimply (at Pretoria, South Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_M_vsmJ0oi/?igshid=w5wfvkg90spe

Another day, another adventure. If I’m honest though, I did not feel like it but in the end I was glad I did... even if Indie did complain 90% of the time about being either cold or hungry. #reallife #mommingishard #coronaquarantinewithkids #giesecrew (at Lion's Den Gorge Nature Preserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-drrxiHmKn6ka60ejdj1KBwPZfWk0S9Wq-sNg0/?igshid=xb4nc8j4zjc4

My poor babe. She had a bit of a weeping eye yesterday after nap time. And this morning both eyes were swollen shut and full of gunk. 3 hours up at the hospital and we're on our way home 🙌🏻 this girl did so good and seemed to enjoy not having sight 🙄 #greyhaircoming #mommingishard

**Act the part** Big sis is sick with the flu. Lil sis is a bit jealous that she doesn't also get to stay at home, so she took things into her own hands. She is now also sick, hot with polkaturkooisalitus, a common ailment this time of the morning 😂 The day can only get better 😁 . . . . . #mommingainteasy #mommingishard #momofgirls #mom #A2 #girlmom #fluseason #alifeleadsimply #pretoriablogger (at Elarduspark, Gauteng, South Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9noP5WJ53a/?igshid=qcol58oq6e2k

Being a parent is hard. Being an early-childhood educator, daycare owner or preschool/kindergarten teacher is also hard. There are many days when we need to repeat ourselves so many times and yet children seem to not want to listen. Let's combine this with the high probability that our own children typically misbehaves more with us than with their caregivers. At the end of the day, we parents are just... TIRED. Tired to keep it all together. Tired to always be on the watch - with our actions, with our words. HOWEVER, this diagram is a great reminder for me to continue working on my parenting, one word at a time.
