Parenting Bites
Welcome to Parenting Bites, a blog for you, if you’re the person that’s seeking relatable parent ranting embedded in research and personal thoughts…from me, a Mom of 3, raised in a dysfunctional 90’s household, that was both chaotic and colorful.
This place is all about digestible parenting bites, pieces of thoughtful, yummy, curious topics. Sometimes parenting really does bite; however, you should know that, for me, parenting has made me a better human.
I’m actually super into being curious about the imperfect process that is parenting and, for that matter, peopling. I’m in this space questioning generational cycles, reinventing my form of parenting, and being imperfect along the way. Join me!
