| Whether we admit it or not, we all seek a sense of control. Parenthood is the perfect example. In an ideal world, you’d be able to protect your kids from all harm (and, obviously, get them to behave the way you want). You’ve probably realized by now, though, that your best intentions don’t always translate into your ideal scenario, which can feel like a harsh wake-up call. Realizing you’re not as in control as you once thought is upsetting for good reason. Control offers predictability and comfort we all naturally crave. While you may not be able to control everything that’s happening around you, it is possible to regain your footing and build some confidence in the midst of chaos. |
