I knew I was in trouble. She ripped the oxygen sensor off her finger and refused to put it back on.
Recovering from surgery isn’t easy for anyone but it’s especially challenging when the patient is only seven. My daughter was grumpy and uncooperative. That was understandable but not helping the situation. Coming out of surgery, she needed to be monitored; the medical sensors weren’t optional. Kasey was not responding well to the doses of loving kindness and patience shown by those around her. There was nothing anyone could do to satisfy her. She was simply cranky.

Welcome to Super Parents Talk. Here I hope to provide advice, tips, resources and my experiences as a parent in the hopes that it may help a parent in need as well as provide a place for parents to come together. I have 3 sons ages 19, 17 and 2. So some-days for me, it seems like I have been parenting forever. At this point in my life I am finding myself having to re-learn many things in regards to parenting. It can make for quite an interesting day dealing with toddler issues and teenage dilemmas.
Being a parent is not an easy job and there are no instruction manuals or sure fire parenting techniques that work for all parents. There are many obstacles and bumps along the parenting road. Believe me when I say I think I have hit all of them so far. I found myself many times in need of advice and support. Which is why I made it my mission to try and help those in the same parenting boat as me. Help them find the support and tools they need to be the best parent they can be.
Now I am no mother of the year that is for sure. I have definitely had my parenting blunders. But really who is a perfect parent? But I am a Super Parent. What is a Super Parent then if it’s not a perfect parent or wonder woman? A Super Parent to me is not perfect by any means but a parent who strives everyday to be the best parent they can be. A Super Parent is one who faces the obstacles head on determined to prevail but realizes they can’t win without help sometimes. They are the parent who realizes they are the key to their child’s future and takes their role as a parent seriously. I could go on and on about what my definition of a Super Parent is. We all have it in us to be Super Parent’s. Please do take advantage of the helpful information here and don’t hesitate to share your wisdom, thoughts and experiences here as well.
Sincerely,
Tammy
