Parenting Isn't For Sissies

Though I have graduate degrees in and experience practicing both family therapy and school counseling, the truth is, I often find myself bewildered when parenting my own children. In my stories about the humbling and hilarious reality of life with kids, I will try to connect with you – because you struggle with, laugh about and muddle through parenting, just like I do. Parenting isn't for sissies ... but sometimes I feel like one. –Jennifer DuBose

Quote of the Day: "...'cause I look up to you."

Kids say the darndest things, and my daughter Holly is no exception.  Recently, Holly issued directions to my husband, who'd agreed to play a game with her.  She decided they should swap roles.  She'd play the parent, and he would play the child.

"Act like a kid," she instructed her father, then she told him to 'shrink' to her size by kneeling down.  "First, you have to look up to me, 'cause I look up to you."
