I don’t follow instructions that have more than 1 step very well, so I think I’ll go with the latter. Except the child is now old enough to feed himself, so I’m good.

“Feed them sometimes” very wise words. This I mastered until they were of age to use the microwave. They actually thought I “cooked” toast.🤣

The demands of mom hood are a tough act to follow these days. This is why many of us in lil red dot stay single, or treat pets as “child”. Much to our governments sadness as population not growing ha ha. Glad that your child can feed self now. Kick up your heels and enjoy motherhood!😉

I definitely know my mom was not as involved as so many moms are today, which is not to say she neglected me at all. Different times.

I think the old way is better. Teaches kids independence. My mom made time once a week to spend quality time with us. We knew she was busy, but we also knew we were loved.

Problem is, I know a mother who must have these guidelines as a bible by her bed… she has/does everything except the cul-de-sac.
Geez.
If your child is alive and kicking as a teenager, and mostly happy, I think you’ve done a pretty damn good job.

So, so true! I like to say that sometimes L.E.S. is better. Of course L.E.S. stands for Love, Encouragement, and Support. A child that gets all three from a mother will likely have a special relationship eternally.

Oh, I like that. What a fabulous sentiment. It also makes me feel accomplished as a mother as I make sure my son gets all 3! Thank you so much!
