It is indeed so hard to watch our children go through some things without saying anything. I have made the same mistake. We try to "save them" from all the hurt in the world. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />DebbiePink Roses and Teacupshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07292534447306279495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-44550293908998085752011-05-06T12:21:28.427-05:002011-05-06T12:21:28.427-05:00Well, it's nice to know that someone else foun...Well, it's nice to know that someone else found motherhood as big a job as I did.<br />Not only would women be more careful about jumping into motherhood if we had classes and honesty about this "job" (the biggest career we embark upon in our lives) but I think there would be a lot less unwanted children in this world if women knew what was involved for the next 20 years or so.... sometimes even more years when the parents are trying, desperately, to be their children's "friend" instead of being a parent.<br />Very good five minutes of thoughtful writing...farmladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10516462251842458511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-20305461408102901722011-05-06T07:20:36.900-05:002011-05-06T07:20:36.900-05:00Yes!

I guess that's the kind of information we are trying desperately to glean while pumping our friends for details on everything from breast milk to drivers licenses! But, you're right, the whole roots and wings thing is tricky. Mine are still small (one just small-ish) but it is a struggle that I see coming. And it's going to be huge for me. I hope in recognizing that I can prepare some. We'll see. Anyway, thanks so much for sharing this wisdom. It's something I needed to hear.

It is always so very tempting to intervene, as you said, "Realistically, I know this is not how things need to work, but as a mother, it is so very hard to keep my mouth shut."<br />Amen to that!<br />I have never thought about a class on what not to do, but it would certainly be filled with such important information that would lead to better relationships, just as you said!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14197595923826406564noreply@blogger.com
