Hello fellow parents and caregivers of children!

There are a bunch of new parents here (raises hand) and there are plenty of veteran parents, as well as people who have experience caring or helping to care for children, like teachers, baby-sitters, aunts, and uncles. Coming together will help all of us, whether we need advice, commiseration, or just a space to let it out. Being a caregiver of small humans can be hard, but also rewarding and wonderful, so we can also share in the joys of watching little humans get to be big humans.

This week let’s talk about Fears.

Taking care of a small child can be terrifying! Let’s talk about some of our scariest moments in caretaking, and how we got through them. What are we still afraid of most, and how do we cope?

(The prompt is also just a suggestion: please feel free to vent or share about whatever you want related to parenting.)
