“Article after article is about raising daughters, not sons. And, when I do come across an essay on raising sons, it’s about how and why we need to raise our boys with particular values for the sake of the females and daughters of the world. This is something I’m not entirely on board with.”
‘We are forgetting about our boys and that’s not OK.’
‘My son broke his arm yesterday, near his wrist. I am to blame. I told him he was fine. I lied.’
“‘BAM,’ ‘CRASH,’ he hit the ground. He hit the ground hard. I ‘got on him’ verbally for crying and being too dramatic.”
‘My daughter is my best friend, and I’m not ashamed to admit it.’
“I’m well aware that many parenting experts and the majority of the general public think it not wise to be your child’s friend. ‘You are their parent, not their friend,’ they say. What do I tell them? Nothing, because I don’t need them to approve of my parenting decisions.”
‘I like Mama’s milk and I cannot lie!’ Mom’s HILARIOUS take on ‘Baby Got Back’ is the breastfeeding anthem we all need
“My baby friends tried to warn me, but that milk you got makes (me so thirsty), ooh, you’ve got some smooth skin, you say you wanna fit in your old jeans?, Well, use me, use me, ’cause I’m breastfeedin’ groupie!”
‘It’s been a long day. She doesn’t feel good. She is exhausted. And, do you know what she needs from you? She needs you to HUG HER.’
“It is not lost on me that, for you, it has been a long day too. But, you asked for this. You wanted this. You must have known this is what it would be like. So, why are you complaining?”
‘I may carry the mental load, but YOU carry ME. That’s a realization I came to today.’
“Her kids are always so dirty; does she even bath them? Wow. She’s put on a few pounds. She looks like a mess; do you think she’s okay?”
‘If you tell a person with anxiety to ‘just stop,’ you might as well just stop your mouth from spitting more unhelpful garbage.’
“If you make the mistake of asking someone with anxiety why they ‘do this to themselves,’ you really have no clue.”
‘To all the men with daughters, you need to love your WIFE as you want your DAUGHTER to be loved.’
“Your daughter more than loves her mother; she is enthralled with her. Mothers and their daughters tend to live a parallel life. Your relationship with your wife is about SO much more than just you and her.”
