listen to your child, the more you let them listen to their own body, the better they will be, and they are learning
listen to them...


we tend to avoid it.. we are always busy forcing our opinions..

children can sense our expectations

say yes more.
saying yes means changing your life

people have very weird expectations when they are parents,, when can i get back to my life, back to normal
a child schedule is normal, accept this now, and in 10 years you will see incredible results
an intangible pleasure
unlike living your own life and adjusting whenever

if we shame each other because we don't know something.. is that the way to learn?
