Tome of the Mommy: Telling Your Child There Is No Santa
Single Minded Women —
Authority: 139
There is no “right time” to tell your children that there is no Santa. Worse yet, there is no right way. If you’re lucky, as you’re stumbling to get the words out, your son will pat you calmly on shoulder and say, “Look, Mom, I know what you’re trying to tell me, and it’s okay. I’ve already figured ...1 week ago -
Ask Yourself This Question: What Does Your Child Need from You Right Now?
EmpoweringParents.com —
Authority: 114
I read some wonderful research years ago (which I would credit if I could remember the author), that said parenting is so tough because you have to first create the idea in your child’s head that “Mommy and I are one” (sorry, child-rearing guys!), to give your child a sense of safety, and then, as the child ...1 week ago -
Switching off the swearing
Single Parent Dad —
Authority: 459
The warnings came early. “You’ll have to stop swearing around the baby, you know?” As did, my glib, know-it-all responses. “I don’t have to do anything, what you mean is it may be more social acceptable, and possibly less corrupting to utter obscenities around our, and other, children.” Yeah, I am an ...1 week ago -
Dirt Bike Boy – Homework Edition
I Date White —
Authority: 116
Sooner or later a father has to step in and correct the attitude of a son. That day arrived for Dirt Bike Boy last week. It was an accumulation of bad behavior and his mother’s lack of discipline. I was alerted by a brief conversation with his mother. She mentioned that he had after school tutoring, as a ...2 weeks ago -

Sorry for all my whining last night. Thank you everyone for your encouragement on my last post. It’s been a crazy week and it isn’t over yet. It’s 11pm on Thursday night right now and Shiloh is asleep on the couch and I’m trying to work on my Geography papers. (Shiloh only fell asleep about ten minutes ago.) ...2 weeks ago -

Ahh... the holidays are upon us... Images of sugar plums dancing in our heads while dreaming if Santa Claus will be providing us with treats (or a big fat lump of coal) under our Christmas trees. Who am I kidding?! That is what I want.. those images on the books I read to my son at bedtime. Meanwhile in the back of ...2 weeks ago -
Sorting out the Christmas tool kit
Single Parent Dad —

Jesus’ birthday celebrations, and the days surrounding them are somewhat of a tumultuous affair at châteaux Newbold. While commemorating the son of god’s two thousand or so posthumous ageing, busies us like many homes around the globe, my son’s birthday is only a few days shy of the 25 th , so the intensity ...2 weeks ago -
Dont have a cow man
Single Parent Dad —
Authority: 459
I have nothing against those that abdicate from their position in the food chain; their stance leaves more animals for consumption by those that remain in their correct place. We get a great deal of things from meat, like taste and the satisfaction of being king of the aforementioned dog-eats-dog or, more ...3 weeks ago -
Ignoring the injustice
Single Parent Dad —
Authority: 459
Parenting intervention is something, it seems, of growing significance. With a child embarking on his schooling, and increasing his independence on an hourly basis, judging when to intervene, or allow situations to play out, feels just like a continual, and ongoing process. My philosophy is to allow as much ...3 weeks ago -

I talked with my daughter last night about putting up the Christmas tree. She was used to the ‘doing’ and ‘decorating’ since she could remember.I had to relate to her that many of our family’s patterns over the years were due to other’s influences and not my own proactive choice. Having a tree up for ...4 weeks ago -

Whatever, my boy could do that in his sleep
Single Parent Dad —
Authority: 459
Being the ridiculously observant and acutely aware parent that I am, I have discovered that my son sleepwalks - about a year after he may have actually started doing so. 365 is a reasonable reaction time for me. Ask my mom, she is still awaiting replies to texts sent in 2005. And that is not even a joke. ...4 weeks ago -

I had the chance today of speaking with someone doing just that. Describing something that normally they’d know couldn’t be taken at word.It’s about perception. Sometimes people perceive things in a way one day and the next in another that expression of it to them contradicts prior comments or statements ...4 weeks ago -

Boysterous
Single Parent Dad —

I am currently a tad confused by my son’s boisterous behaviour. Now I could have ‘my-child-couldn’t-possibly-be naughty’ parenting goggles on, however I could equally be donning the ‘overreacting-and-expecting-too-much’ shades. Being a single parent, it is at times that I have conflicting ideas, or ...4 weeks ago -

Last week myself and another set of parents co-hosted our sons’ 2nd grade birthday party . It was an ordeal. To say the least. The hoopla was originally scheduled to happen at a local museum but due to logistics, the venue tanked. So the other parents and I scrambled at the last minute to find [...]4 weeks ago -
