“I just want to do the right thing for my children”
How many times have you said something similar or had a parent friend express the same? As parents we want to ensure we are doing the “right thing” for our little humans. But with all the contradicting and at times confusing theoretical evidence out there how do we cut out the bull% #% #?
Simply put the good enough parent is one who wants to do right for their child, who cares, who consistently shows up for their child, who admits when they make a mistake and learns from this while attempting reconnection and finally who also shows their emotions and that they too like their child have basic human emotions.
If you can show up in the above basic ways for your kiddos as best you can then you are doing an amazing job mum and dads.
