I think that the best parents are the ones who can admit that they have room to improve. I feel like I’m much better at this job when I can step back and say, “wow, I really coulda handled THAT better” rather than patting myself on the back for my awesome display of parenting skills.
What do you think? Is it healthier to think you’re an omniscient superparent or recognizing the missteps you make along the way?

I believe that the only way we can better ourselves as parents is to recognize and improve upon the things that we struggle with. Those “things” can tear us apart or make us reflect on what we can do better. I struggle with this every single day – Should I have said those exact words? Was that the right way to handle the situation? Is there another way I can react the next time my kids don’t act the way I thought they might? There is no harm in always trying to improve upon a situation, a thought, an action – these are the moments in which we find who we want to be as parents.
