yep. the hardest part of being a parent is the patience to understand, and treat children as the underdeveloped humans they are. not everyone can do it

not everyone can do it

Also good to remember that almost nobody can do it everyday day. It’s definitely good to be consistent with one’s approach, however all parents are human and will lose patience at times.

true that... some of my darkest hours
