[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate the “relax” comments. We are actually raising future adults. It is important to think about...[/quote] I think the "relax" comments are more about not catastrophizing. Control what you have control over. Raise your child to be kind, empathetic and strong in their own convictions. My kid is in 1st grade. I think ahead to issues that can crop up in 1st grade and think ahead to 2nd grade. Thinking ahead 10 years is catastrophizing. [/quote] No, NP here. “Relax” and “unclench” are patronizing and so boring. You think anyone ever reads “relax” and thinks, “Oh, wow, I never thought of that! Great - my worries are gone!” [/quote]
