[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remembering so many minor minor events.

I can calendar, I can set reminders, I can show for big events with cookies.

Somehow I successfully have my kid wear pajamas on each Monday in December (or what have you). But the amount of brain space this has to take … it isn’t worth the squeeze.[/quote]

It's really hard. And sometimes you don't know what's going to matter. Sometimes you put effort into remembering some thing and your kid did want care, the school doesn't care, other parents are like "wait, you did that?"

But on the other hand my DD still brings up the time two full years ago when misunderstood an expectation for her dance class and she therefore was unable to participate in a 20 minute exhibition that took place during a class. Like literally she brought this up last night, "Remember when I couldn't do that thing because you didn't bring the right color leotard?" Me: "are you talking about the thing two years ago?" Her: "yes, I'm still so sad, all my friends got to do it and I didn't. I'll always be sad about that."
