You feel like you're raising your voice all the time. You snap, then regret it. You give in to screen time for a moment of peace and feel guilty about it later.
At night, you lie in bed thinking, “I messed it up again. I’m failing as a parent.”
You're not alone. So many parents quietly carry these thoughts.
But the truth is: you are NOT a bad parent.
You are a human one.
A human who loves their child deeply, but also has emotions, limits, and needs.
Often, you're overwhelmed, unsupported, and trying to do it all. You compare yourself to others and hold yourself to impossible standards. You try to meet everyone's needs—often forgetting your own.
Here's what's real:
- Having hard moments doesn’t make you a bad parent.
- Being a “good parent” doesn’t mean being perfect.
It means being present. Being real. And by navigating your own emotions, you're teaching your child how to do the same.
Children don’t need perfect parents. They need love. They need reassurance. They need someone who keeps showing up—even on the messy days.
And when YOU feel alone, unheard, or unsupported—by your partner, family, or even close friends—it becomes so much harder to show up the way you want to.
You deserve support too.
