January 13, 2023 What Schools Are Your Kids Attending?
What schools are your kids attending? No, not what college or prep school. This is more of a “school of life” question.

January 12, 2023 Why You Can’t Compare Yourself To These People
These apps are designed to make you feel vulnerable, hook you, and sell you stuff. While that is great for the social media platforms, it’s not so great for your family. And it’s definitely not great for your mental health.

January 09, 2023 Why Not Get Better Here?
If the Stoics have taught us anything it is that we should focus only on the things we can control. We can control what kind of parents we are. We cannot control the outcome of our actions, of course, but we can control how we talk to our kids, how we raise them, how we discipline and reward them, what we expect from them, and what they can expect from us.

January 04, 2023 Put Your Focus Here
You’re at the store and you see a parent talking rudely to their kids. Or letting them run around like it’s their house. You read some news story about some terrible parenting strategy that drives you nuts. Or maybe it’s closer to home and you don’t like how much time your spouse is spending on their phone.

You know what you should do about this? You should focus on being a better parent yourself.
