What do you struggle with being an AP parent?

What do you think you do best?

Worst: I struggle with being calm. I can tell the logical, calm discipline stuff may be a challenge at times. I don't every yell at Juliana, though. Sometimes I just feel like I'm going to lose my mind and I hand her to DH.

Best: I think I have a natural empathy toward children and can definitely understand that they're not doing things just because they're "naughty" or to mess with us, but because they're kids. When people give me bad advice, I have no issues brushing it off or even defending what I think is right. I don't have any issues putting my daughter's needs ahead of mine because that's how I think it should be.

handing my older kids! Sometimes i just get so upset at their attitudes its hard for me to deal with it.

I think the best thing i do is sit down and really try to understand what is causing my older 2 to act out.
