February break is over. I have no idea what we did, it went quick. I guess that’s not different from reality – doesn’t life fly by as you get older? I remember when I was young sitting in class wondering as I looked at the clock, why do the days inch by?…
Now that we’re back to our regular schedule, I’m trying to organize and make a few changes. I’ve been reading a lot about helicopter parents. My friend gave me an article that was really interesting and I’ve since started looking at other materials. I’ll be writing something on the topic soon. It’s incredible how much of an impact this has on our kids ability to function and succeed.
Also, please be sure and check out RBW – there are several new posts by new contributors. If you’re interested in contributing, please contact me.
Here’s a contributor you’ll want to read more about if you have older boys:
