Motherhood is full of little highs: the smell of a newborn baby's head, the feeling of a small hand holding yours, the infectious sound of laughter, first words, first steps, the first day at school, endless tiny but significant hints of the person your child is to become. But motherhood is not without its lows either: tears and tantrums (your child's and your own), fears, self-doubt, sleepless nights, and that's not to mention the mum fails.

Raising the perfect child...it's our dream as parents. But the reality is: the perfect child doesn't exist. Yet parents everywhere are putting the full-court press on their kids to be perfect, fixating on raising them to be smarter, faster, more successful, and more popular than their peers. And that's making today's parents and their children crazy. In Untying Parent Anxiety, nationally syndicated humor columnist and author Lisa Sugarman reminds us that our kids aren't supposed to be perfect.

Many years ago, when I was a young father of little girls, I told myself I had two choices; I could raise them on accident or raise them with purpose. Noting how loaded the word “beautiful” is for women, I decided to redefine the word with three foundational values I found to be significant and slowly eroding in the world: brave, smart and kind (BSK).

Each year, more and more emphasis is placed on achieving good results in the end-of-school exams. This can lead to students feeling extraordinary pressure and having unrealistic expectations.

In “We Are Not Seeing It: How & Why Mainstream Schools Break SEND Kids”, blogger and parent Luisa Gray (aka. @LongRoadSENDMum) explains what the drivers of the SEND emergency REALLY are — and how UK schools and Local Authorities are routinely causing harm to SEND children: harm that is massive, with potentially life-long effects.

Born into a digital wonderland, our children are practically mini hackers right from the crib! Most of them were handed a device before they could walk, they clicked before they took their first bite and scrolled before they said their first words. But living online is a giant uncontrolled...

Parents these days are under a great deal of pressure to be "perfect". From psychologists to social scientists, journalists to weekend bloggers, everyone has an opinion about the do's and don'ts for raising healthy, well-adjusted - and let's not forget polite - children in today's fast-paced world.

As a six-year-old walks the block home from school, a car pulls to the curb beside him. The man driving asks the boy if he wants a ride, and begins to get out of his car... If this happened, would your child know what to do? You may remember a time when you played outdoors until dark. In many parts of our country, many children still do.
