No you are not. As a former teacher I can tell you a lot of parents don’t know and some even choose to wait until the first day.

No you’re not! I’ve meet a few moms who didn’t know and were two days from school. They weren’t sure where to even go to get the information.

No the requirements for pre school are lengthy and the information is barely there when you need it

Affair

I could use advice and help!! Unfortunately my husband cheated on me for months following my postpartum(online chat rooms and money for videos) with one specific person. I’m devastated and I don’t know what to do or feel. I feel disgusting. He’s an amazing father and usually an husband so I don’t know what went wrong. I need to hear some positive advice! Please!

I find myself getting quite agressive with my children

Please be kind as I am struggling and looking for help because I hate it!
I have two young children and I don't know what's wrong with me but whenever I am going through a lot, stressed and most especially frustrated/angry it's like something takes control over me and I become very agressive with my little ones without wanting to. I shout, I grab their hand quite hard and I'm just not very gentle.
I can see how much it affects them and always apologise after and give them a hug while I explain why I did what I did. That I was frustrated, but I shouldn't have reacted that way. I haven't been kind/gentle with them.
It's just me on my own and I do find it really hard. I can't afford a sitter and have no family near me or friends. What can I actually do? Because if I carry on like this I would rather give them up. As heart breaking as it is, I often think they'd be better off with another family who doesn't have such a short fuse

would you still feed your 1yo this?

I wanted to make marry me chicken so I bought sun-dried tomatoes without checking the label first… Guidelines say it’s OK but I don’t know if I trust the guidelines completely

Feel uneasy about toddler play

I sometimes feel uneasy about my toddler playing with other children because I’m worried I’m judged by other parents for our skin colour. Is this an anxiety I have or do other parents feel the same?

Potty training and he's taking me every 2-5 minutes instead of waiting 🫠

It's day 1 of no nappy. Is this going well?

Can't put baby down without him screaming the house down

Can't cook, go to the loo, do anything for my 4 year old that doesn't require more than one hand. I feel awful for complaining because he's everything i ever wanted and such an easy baby and this newborn stage is so fleeting but I'm really struggling holding him all day and all night
