This open, honest, and upbeat journal-style parenting memoir is taken from Samantha Scanlon's blog chronicling her frustrating, challenging, and at times hilarious life with a toddler.
Being a parent is hard. It doesn't matter if you're a new parent, a veteran parent, or even if you have a doctorate in child development. There is no easy or right way to parent. The only thing you can do is show up, on the good days and especially the bad. Samantha shows it's okay to use funny phrases to describe your children. It's okay not to like your offspring 100 percent of the time. It's okay to think your child is an asshole if they're acting like one. Being open and honest about every aspect of raising children is okay. She hopes as you read through these first-hand stories of the crazy things toddlers sometimes do, that you are able to find humor in the ridiculous, disgusting, and very real challenges she faced as a stay-at-home mom.
There are so many parents out there who feel completely isolated, believing they are all alone in their struggles. But you are not! We are all on this parenting journey together, raising the future generation the best we possibly can.
Scanlon, Samantha: - When you think of a mother, you usually visualize cuddling and baking cookies. As outdated as these concepts are, it didn't stop Samantha Scanlon from feeling as though she was going to fail at being the main caretaker of an infant. She'd always brought home the bacon but was never the one to actually cook it. Conforming to this role was difficult. She put a lot of expectations on herself, which led to constant self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy. She struggled with postpartum depression and anxiety and her days turned into a continuous cycle of failed schedules and angry outbursts. She was miserable and so were her children.She realized that something needed to change. She needed to change. So she sought out support groups on social media. But expressing her feelings in an open and honest way simply opened the door for mom shamers. And the last thing she needed was to be judged. After being kicked out of a few support groups she decided she needed to create her own space where she could share openly without being told that she needed to censor herself or minimize her feelings for the sake of everyone else's.Sam started a blog where she could share her struggles with parenting, depression, anxiety, addiction, and life in general. But as she wrote about her life and her children, she quickly noticed that the entries were truly entertaining. Regardless of what face-palming event occurred, she was able to write about it in a positive way. The lightbulb went off that the problem wasn't with her life or her struggles. The issues she was having were caused by her responses to the circumstances.Writing the blog helped her to change her outlook. Embracing her flaws as a parent and being able to openly communicate them to help others see there is usually a positive and hilarious side to any situation has helped her tremendously. She hopes reading about her journey can do the same for you.
