[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]… make me feel inadequate as a parent. I really try not to compare but it definitely feels like other parents are giving their young children more advantages than I have (practically and genetically). Educated nannies, private schools, lessons… things we just can’t afford. Our daycare doesn’t even come close to three hours of outdoor time a day! Anyone else? Is this a forever feeling or does it go away? [/quote] My kids are none of the above, and I really don't care. We provide them experiences and enrichment, but nothing compared to what many people in this area do. DH and I agree that we just want our kids to be emotionally well adjusted and good people. Comparison is truly the thief of joy; this area is the definition of the rat race and it sounds like you are getting sucked in. It is only natural to want to provide your child with every advantage, but you need to understand your priorities as parent and family. Good luck. [/quote]
