I am a mother of two young children, both under 5 years of age, a preschool age daughter and an infant son. Being a parent comes with many opportunities to view, engage, interact with and understand varied parenting styles. This opportunity brings with it the struggles of comparison and doubt, as expected. The most important learning for me as a parent has been to accept the fact that there is no perfect parenting style. Consequently, there is no perfect parent. This, for me, was quite a disappointment initially, to be honest.
