If there's one truth out there, it's that parenting sure isn't easy and there's no right way to do it. In this day and age, there are countless approaches to parenting and at times, it can seem overwhelming. What's going to work best for us and our family? What's going to ensure happy, healthy children and set them up for success? These are pretty whopping questions, folks.
Since these are such important questions, it only makes sense that we're going to make a mistake here and there. I mean, c'mon, we're only human (and most likely running on three hours of sleep.)
We gathered up 20 rookie parenting mistakes that we've all made at some time or another. Read them and relate or use them as a precaution. Either way, this list isn't meant for anyone to beat themselves up. Parenting is hard, we know!
