We all experience days when we just feel like we are not good parents and we start questioning how good of a job we are doing with our kids. Am I giving them enough of my time. Am I setting a good example for them.
I wonder am I doing a good job as a parent.
There have been many times in my journey as a mom that I just wanted to give up. Alot of you moms out there have probably felt this way to. I am telling you it is okay to feel that way we moms are not perfect. Being a mom is tough, but you are doing an amazing job! Just remember to take care of yourself too and give yourself some grace.
I have a teenager now which is tough to parent not easy, right now going through a rough situation going to be honest yes I feel like giving up but no this are the important years of their life before they get to adulthood. Teenagers are like rollercoasters one minute they are happy the next minute they are moody. As a mom of a teenager just be supportive and be loving to them which is hard. Everyday is a struggle but I do make her favorite foods. I scratch her back cause that helps her go to sleep, and just listen to her.She says things to me that are hard to hear but I know that someday she will understand. I try to encourage and invite her to come out with me but I know teens like their own space and I respect that.
I take her to doctors appointments and dental appointments and buy her favorite things at the store so she knows I care and thing about her. I say I love you and hug her. It will get better so just be there and don’t give up mama. You got this.
