Stories of an Unschooling Family 118: Dragon Mothers and Parenting Mistakes
This week, I'm talking about the times when we don't like who we are and the way we're parenting our kids. I answer the following questions:
- How did I get the nickname The Dragon Mother?
- How did I get on top of my quick-temper and become a more calm and patient mother?
- Am I now a perfect mother or do I still make mistakes?
- How did my first child cope with her inexperienced dragon mother? Was she irreversibly affected by my far-from-perfect parenting?
- Do we actually need to be perfect parents?
- Is the unschooling life perfect?
I also tell a lot of stories during this episode.
