Fifth Issue: Some Days Are Horrible, And Nothing Happens to Mitigate That

Everybody has read some version of the following story. It was a horrible day. My kids fought all day long. My youngest told me that he hated my guts. I worked hard to put together a fun day, and nobody bothered to thank me for it. I was frustrated and resentful. I was truly angry with my children. Then it happened. One of my kids did something that was:

● Glurgingly Adorable

● An Indication That They Suddenly Understood And Were Newly Appreciative

● Made an Insightfully Funny Remark

That never happens. Some days simply go from bad to worse, and there is no single moment that makes that day better. It sucks, but there is some good news. That’s okay. You can survive that. Even better, these are the days where you will be forced to be a good parent. If not, these are the days that you will use to learn to forgive yourself your flaws. Eventually, you will find a balance between school, work, and home life.
