PARENTING!.. WHAT”S
THAT ALL ABOUT!?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

ARE YOU ALREADY A PARENT?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How’s it going for you?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Parenting can be a roller coaster of emotions over a lifetime. How are you going with it? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be a rude awakening (literally).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Has it been a shock to your system, relationships, marriage, life. Do you feel you have lost who you are. Is the pressure of making a living really weighing on you, stopping you being the parent you always thought you might be? Is there conflict between you and your partner about discipline, roles, expectations. Has your partner changed and become someone you do not know anymore. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

WHAT ABOUT AS THEY GET OLDER<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you disappointed with the parent you became or are?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We all have an image in our mind of how we would be as a parent, that best part of us. What happens when we let ourselves down, or fail at the expectations we had. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if we just slipped up or made a mistake how do we fix that. Why are we becoming the mum or dad we never wanted to be. The husband, wife or partner we never wanted to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Has being a parent changed you, and you do not like what you have become. Are you unable to cope anymore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you watched all the TED talks and gurus talk about it and now feel inadequate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This is a landing platform for those who are thinking about it and want to talk, or those who are struggling with the feelings they have, after it has happened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a non-judgmental place to explore all these feelings if they are there. They may arise before the process, within a short time frame after the process… or years down the track. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever the time frame, you are welcome to talk with us. There is no condemnation, no judgment… just you. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
