It's not fun dealing with an endlessly braggadocious parent, right? While you can't control what other parents do, you *can* control your own behavior, and that includes keeping any boasting tendencies about your kids in check.

When we name and acknowledge our resilient actions and attitudes, it allows us to draw upon those lessons with more confidence in the future. https://t.co/3wUzan2IkV

It’s a scenario many parents dread: Your child throws a major temper tantrum in the middle of a store. What if I told you there’s a way that prevents this from happening (almost every time)? https://t.co/mcQeZTFP7Q
