I Need to Say This

We are all experts at parenting until we have our own children.

Bottom line: unless you have kids of your own (of a reasonable age) don't judge. One day, (believe it or not - unless you are a pure dictator) that kid in the supermarket having a tanty, will be yours one day. And you will be the exasperated parent.

Tread lightly in shoes that aren't yours.

Wait! That kid in the supermarket is MINE?!?!
I want a paternity test!

Seriously: my kids are in their teens and older... but I still "remember those days". I don't see the screaming kid: I see the bedraggled mom or dad attempting to lovingly manage their kid in public... and I feel for them!
