Parenting Peacefully Isn't Always Easy

Have you ever been so dedicated to doing something, working all the angles, putting in all the time and effort and there are still days when it just doesn't work? You know about connection, you use it, you even do Special Time and listen to big feelings. With all that hard work you just want the pay-off the regulated behavior and the calm child. It doesn't seem fair or kind or at all manageable at times. Quite frankly it isn't, this parenting thing is far from fair or easy. Listen in as we try to give our good friend, Casey, a place to discuss what is hard about parenting with more peace. This episode is a real look at a parenting challenge and a kind loving mom who finds herself in the thick of things just like the rest of us, every single day.
