Be nice to your kids. They’ll choose your nursing home.

 

 

It is a family day in Canada.  I am reading books on parenting because my six-year-old son alone gives me as much headaches as (I am assuming, of course) a whole soccer team would.  I am reading on parenting and I am still nowhere.

 

That is an excerpt from Jeffrey Bernstein “Liking the Child You Love”.

 

Joking about my inability to find a way to outsmart my son is what is left for now.
