Regular Cool Mom

This week we have an open conversation as we hash out a topic that has been on our mind for years: ‘High Horses’ (aka soap boxes).  Since the dawn of social media, we’ve been developing our thick skins for certain comments or judgements that crop up from time to time, but one thing we’ve noticed -and also been guilty of (especially Joy!)- is adopting a personal high horse.  We have been humbled by life and our children enough times to realize that as much as we’d like to think that our way is the only way, there are actually many factors that go into the parenting decisions we make, and that those decisions are ever-evolving. Having a conversation about being judgmental without sounding judgmental is a challenge, so we hope that you can feel safe chiming in and sharing with us your perceptions on having opinions vs. high horses, and how you navigate sharing family decisions without feeling policed by others. We would love to have you chime in and join us in discussing this topic.
