SHAKE OFF THE SHOULDS

I've been following a parenting blog and I liked what I read since I am trying to eliminate "should" from my vocabulary.

The post was describing all of the "shoulds" that parents feel they should do or be. For example, my kid should be a part of this or I should sign my kids up for this so that they can learn this or my kid should be getting these grades or playing with this kid or should, should, should...

The blogger reminded me that we don't have to really do anything we don't want to do.
Make your choices on your own. Do want feels right for your child, for your family.

Don't "should on yourself."
