Finding Oneself

A mother or a father committed to be a stay-at-home parent is a reward and a privilege. When a parent becomes attached to their kid 24/7, it can be alienating to be without them. In times when the child is taken away, a parent may feel aimless. Feeling lost due to the sudden freedom. When you spend your days taking care of child, it becomes a routine. Sometimes, it is hard for a parent to find their place in society when they’re without their children.

Spoiled

"Don't spoil your child!" A phrase many parents have heard. By definition, spoiling your child means indulging their wants, bending rules as they see fit, and breaking down all boundaries to fit their preferences. Thus, there are times when people mislable providing as an act of spoiling one's child.  People get so hung up to how they were raise and end up labeling things they were't provided as a child as a luxury and shouldn't be given to children of the present.

The First Year

Mothers or parents get usually judged when they celebrate the first year birthday of their children.  It's more than just celebrating the child's birthday, but it's also to celebrate the first year of parenthood especially for new parents.

It would be nice if we could be kind to the parents who just want to celebrate the life that was given to them and the strength that enabled them to survive the first year of life or the first year of parenthood.

Fleeting

Raising a child is just a fleeting moment. Everything that seems so endless will just fade into memory.  Sleepless nights gets better. Days get much more easier. Children get tougher. In a moment you are their world. The next second they create their own world.  Right now you decide whats best for them. Soon they take on their own responsibilities. As much as we want to keep them safe right beside us, they need and will learn to make mistakes and learn from them.  As much as we want to pass on our wisdom, they will build their own through their experiences.  As one once said "Us parents, we are just but a memory to our children." The best we could do is to make memories that will hopefully guide them into the right path and will strengthen them through out challenges.
