Do you ever feel like you are not doing enough?

Do you ever just feel like sometimes you’re not doing enough, or like you feel guilty for not being able to provide for your child with what you want to give them? Today’s one of those days for me.

Parental guilt is real! But 99% of the time we are unnecessarily giving ourselves a hard time. If your child is fed, clothed, getting what they need, loved and cared for then life is good :slight_smile: there will always be “wants” we can’t meet some times, but even that is a good teaching moment for kids some times. The fact that you’re even reflecting on this tells me you care about your child immensely so I have no doubt you’re doing a great job. Parents who don’t ponder this are usually the ones who need to step it up but never reflect enough to notice what they’re missing.
