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 Going out in Public.

For toddler parents, going out in public can be a minefield. Will there be a meltdown? Will everything go smoothly? Is the space or food designed for kids? Even older kids sometimes have trouble with new places and new people. How does it go for you? What coping methods have you come up with to make it go as smoothly as possible?
