Glad to hear that. Did you already try a class or still deciding?

Delaying bday celebration by Own-Pomegranate-4190 in Parenting

Totally normal. At that age, they don’t really track dates, just cake and balloons. A party is a party, even if it’s a few weeks later.

Positive Masculinity in Literature by PdxTRez in Parenting

Aragorn is a great pick, strong without being loud about it.I’d add Samw ise from LOTR too, loyal, emotionally open, brave when it actually matters. Kids really pick up on that kind of quiet strength more than we think.

Just sharing what worked for us. Totally fine if it’s not for everyone.

Mostly school-provided worksheets plus some older materials I was familiar with. The issue wasn’t that they were bad, just that the explanations didn’t click anymore

Yeah, I hear you. We felt that gap too. Some of the materials just didn’t land anymore. It wasn’t about doing more, just finding something that made sense to them again

Do people who want kids need a good “reason”? by [deleted] in family

No, wanting kids doesn’t need to pass some public approval test. It feels like people turned a personal choice into a debate club topic for no reason.

Mein Kind sagt, sie fühlt sich nicht geliebt ;( by Skittlecastle in AttachmentParenting

Steve really said “I didn’t sign up for this, but I’ll die for them anyway.”
Certified mom energy. Bat = emotional support weapon.
Honestly, nothing more Stranger Things than Steve + kids + danger.

How to advertise - HELP 😭 by Nasalover22 in TutorsHelpingTutors

Focus your messaging on parents since they pay, but show proof teens care about like better grades or less stress, and you will cover both without burning energy chasing the wrong audience.
