Expect Parenting to Be Easy

Many parents believe that parenting is a hard job. In fact, many believe it is the hardest job in the world.

What I’ve found is that parenting is a joyous, primarily easy experience filled with amazing experiences and interactions and love with your child. When parents experience parenting as hard, frustrating or stressful, they don’t understand what their child needs emotionally.

Parenting is a natural, easy, joyous process. When you or your child feel unhappy or unfulfilled in your relationship, this is a red flag that something is not working emotionally in your relationship.

Then it is a simple matter of discovering what’s not working, changing your own behavior, and then life becomes easier and more fun for you and your child.

Don't settle for hard or frustrating when parenting can feel so free and joyous and delightful.
