Parenting

I made Nadya cry this morning

To be fair, she wasn’t entirely at fault 

K made Alyssa cry big time this morning as well

I hate to start my days like this
Because sometimes it affects me quite alot
And I get moody and emotional
Like today

It's a thin line?
Teaching and guiding based on fear
Versus a more nuanced approach based on love and care

Sometimes I think we are too harsh on them
After all we ourselves are trying our best to navigate this big world
What more those two little beings
