ABSTRACT

No matter what the age of your child, being a parent can be a tough job. In fact, I have found the parenting experience to be a conundrum of sorts. One minute you may feel as though you are on top of the parenting universe, responsibly and brilliantly creating a person you think will be the next Nobel Peace Prize winner. And the very next minute, you may feel a tsunami-sized wave of doubt and insecurity after taking a moment to assess your childrearing abilities and the potential disaster you could cause with one parental misstep. So . . . much . . . pressure!
