[quote=Anonymous]Take: Parenting with patience (e.g. spills aren’t the end of the world, we can clean them up). Treating kids like real human beings with valid emotions. My mom never made me feel like my emotions were trivial even when they likely were. Leave: Being a martyr for your husband. My dad was the breadwinner and my mom a SAHM. Obviously not all dynamics are like this, but she ended up taking on almost everything with running the household even into my dad’s retirement. It’s like she still has a kid at home to take care of and I feel resentful on her behalf sometimes with how little my dad does for himself now.[/quote]
