A parenting thought

As a parent, I've had some classic 'dumb' parent moves.  Like when Pookie went from AMAZING sleeper to a child who would not go to sleep without one of us lying down with her.  It only took me 4 months to realize that she was feeling lonely because new baby Bear was sleeping with Mommy and Daddy and she was all alone in a big girl bed.  Or the time when I forced my kid to eat dinner because I was sick and tired of hearing excuses, only to have said kid throw up all over herself.  Then I gave her pink Tylenol, only to have her throw up pink vomit all over our new carpet 10 minutes later.

So you can imagine my joy at reading Finslippy's post on Notable Parenting.  I just about peed my pants!
