How many things should my kid be involved in?
Have I committed to too many sports, activities and social things?
When is it okay to let my kids (or myself) quit?
Am I a bad parent if my kids are doing “just” one thing?
How do I find the permission to shut things down?
What if my kids miss out on playing professional sports?!
Today I share with you my journey from over-scheduled and exhuasted to under-scheduled and calmer.
This is definitely not the end of the discussion on busy, but I think it’s a good start.
In this episode I share:
- How we (really) get into situations where we find ourselves and our kids pulled in a million directions
- How to stop the cycle of busyness
- what I was afraid to admit to Chris and
- the ridiculous spot I spent over an hour because I didn’t know what else to do
Mentioned in this episode is Brene Brown’s book The Gifts of Imperfection.
