Challenges of Parenting

Parenting brings unexpected challenges and a sense of loss, where individuals may feel like they are constantly struggling to balance their own needs with the demands of caring for a child. The constant worries about the child's well-being, brain development, and the transition to new stages can overshadow personal identity. The pressure to be a 'supermom' while trying to reclaim pre-parenthood activities like wearing heels and jeans highlights the internal conflict many face.
