THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PERFECT PARENT!

It’s very common for parents to compare themselves to other mothers and fathers, or feel guilt for something they did as a parent. If this rings a bell with you, then it’s worth remembering that there is no such thing as a perfect parent!

While the summer break is great for kids, it can be hard going on parents who are juggling work demands with keeping the children entertained all summer long. Some parents will find themselves frustrated, tired, having less time to themselves, in need of a break from the kids - all of which can lead to guilt and self-doubt about their parenting. And yet, it seems so easy for other mothers to ‘get it right’, right? Wrong!
