parenting

Do you have a teenager? If you do I think you will agree there is always something, something about them you just can't seem deal with and you talk to them, fight with them, ground them and nothing seems to work. So what do you do? Have you ever thought about going to some extreme to get your point across? Well this guy did, and from what I understand so far, it has worked.

This is why there just aren't as many "Mannys" as you would think there should be. Man, like myself just don't have the ability to multitask when things like sports, beer or women are around. I think we all have done some pretty stupid things when we are distracted by shiny objects, fortunately for most of us, there aren't cameras around when we do.

That sneaky little kid!!  All this time you thought that he/she was hungry, sick or all of the above, but nooooo!  Little manipulator!

At any given time during the day you can find any member of my family on Vine watching BatDad.  This guy is amazing!  He's an ordinary dad with four kids and a Batman mask.  And he's taking a really creative approach to parenting. My kids love him, my husband wants to be him, and I'm pretty smitten too...

Every once in a while there is a story that makes me go think we as a society are getting a little too eager to catch people doing wrong.  This is one of those situations!

This honestly makes me sick. I feel like I should put out some sort of warning to people before they read it, however it doesn't contain violence or sexually explicit language. No, it is far worse than anything that we as a society deem socially unacceptable. Yet to me, it is the FIRST thing we should all be condemning.

Parenting is hard work! SO many decisions to be made, so many responsibilities. It's really a wonder how any of us get through it without some sort of formal training. We do our best though, and fortunately our best is usually pretty darn good. Usually.

Man! I really wish I had come up with this, I really LOVE it. I was looking around the inter-webs and found this great post. It is called, "24 people who are really nailing this parenting thing" by Tanner Ringerud. It is a great compilation.

Here is Today's Daily Dilemma: So as spring and summer have arrived so has my kid's sports games. It feels like I'm at come sort of game everyday, soccer, softball, etc. I really do enjoy watching the kids play and rooting for my daughters and their teams...

Here is Today's Daily Dilemma: I am a stay at home Mom. I love my kids and I think it's important to be there for them as much as I can. However as of the end of summer, two of my three children are going to be in school full time, leaving just my two year old at home...

Here we are, that time of year, High School graduation. Such a bittersweet time for parents. Celebrating the accomplishments your child has made and at the same time, about to send him or her into the big wide world, never really sure of how they will do...
