How to Parent when You are Overwhelmed
Turns out – we don’t!
There is no ultimate right answer that you always know or correct way to do things. Gosh, even as I write this blog, I wonder if I am writing the right thing to entice you to watch the video I made about this topic.
Some days, I wish there was someone to tell me the right answer, so that I know I am making all the right decisions. If I stay thinking about that long enough, I get overwhelmed.
So many decisions each and every day need to be made.
Rather than waiting for someone to confirm that I am making the right answer, I find my way out of overwhelm and back into action. This is how I handle overwhelm. Deciding what the next small step is and doing that. Again and again and again.
Maybe feeling overwhelmed is a good thing. It means that you have a full and rich life. Rather than cutting back on life, lets just find a way to juggle more balls!
Check out this video – another chapter from Love Your Family Again – where I dive deeper into how to face overwhelm. After watching the video, your next action step can be to go to Amazon and get your copy of Love Your Family Again.
