Perfect parenting is a myth. Stop trying to achieve something that isn’t achievable. There is no perfect way to raise a child. There’s just no perfect way to do anything. It isn’t possible.
All you can do as a mother is your best. Take comfort in the fact that that is always enough. Always.
Perfect parenting is an illusion. It doesn’t Exist. It isn’t real. It’s this concept that was created based on people’s effort to make others believe that their lives are always rainbows and sunsets. But it isn’t. Stop comparing yourself to those Instagram moms. They don’t have it all together. No one does.
Motherhood can be chaotic. But it can also be beautiful.
It’s simply just accepting and appreciating the chaos for what it is. Because as absurd as this may sound, oftentimes the most beautiful and rarest moments are born out of the chaos.
When it comes to parenting, your styles will never please everyone. Heck, your parenting styles may even upset a few. But as long as your parenting is based on love, care, support and protection of your little one(s), there is nothing for you to prove to anyone.
Do we all want our children to be moral, loving, empathetic, tolerant and successful individuals? Yes! Without question! But doing all that you can, while you can is enough to push them in the right direction.
Stop beating yourself up about the fact that you lost your temper. Stop being yourself up for not fulfilling everything on your to-do list in one day. Moreover, you shouldn’t be beating yourself up at all. Period.
Remember, you are all your little one(s) need. You and all the love, support, care and protection you can give. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Most of all, please, remember, you’re doing great Mamma!
