I'll say it once and I'll say it again: kids are growing humans. Being a kid does not last forever and yet, we often times get caught up in parenting and forget that it's just a stage and not the end result of our children's lives. Furthermore, kids are not our humans to own but our humans to take care of nurture. They go at their own pace because they are individuals that are separate from us. This was a huge part of my conversation with Karena Skibinski (host of "What About the Mama?" podcast). Controlling things when it comes to parenting is just so stressful and it'd serve you to relax a little bit and be prepared to go with the flow.  Karena's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whatabout_themama/ Karena's Website: www.whataboutthemama.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Weird Mom Website: https://weirdmompodcast.com/  Weird Mom Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weirdmompod/  Weird Mom Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WeirdMomPodcast/ Weird Mom YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/38FtlZI
