[quote=Anonymous]If you’re driven to be a good parent, yes. You cannot continue to behave in immature, dysfunctional, or self-defeating ways and hope to be an effective parent. However, many people do not heed the call to grow into the role, and model terrible behaviors for their kids and pit themselves first. I would imagine this is the rule rather than the exception, unfortunately. For me personally, I grew by leaps and bounds when I became a mom. I had been pretty aimless and immature but it was only after becoming a parent that I finished college, stopped interacting with certain kinds of people, and prioritizing stability and financial wellness.[/quote]
