Setting Ground Rules for My Future Child: Lessons from My Own Childhood

As I think about the kind of parent I want to be, I’ve started making a list of rules for my future child. Growing up, my parents had clear boundaries—like always being honest, respecting others, and making time for family meals. I want to pass on similar values, but with my own twist. For example, I’ll encourage open conversations about feelings and make sure my child knows it’s okay to make mistakes. I hope these rules will help them grow into a kind, confident person. What’s one rule you’d set for your future child? Share your thoughts below! #ParentingGoals #FamilyValues #RaisingKids #Parenting

She’s a full-time working mom, grad student, and the family’s “house manager.” He’s all about giving back to the community and keeping the energy up at home. Their secret? Staying intentional about their time together, keeping faith at the center, and always finding the fun in chaos.

Ben & Jen: Easter Reunion Vibes 🌞

So, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are at it again, keeping the co-parenting vibes strong this Easter. While out shopping with their son, Ben was spotted with a cool tote rocking The Sun tarot design, symbolizing success and abundance. Talk about spiritual energy, right? Their friendly bond keeps everyone talking, especially after recent hugs set the internet buzzing. But rumor has it, Jen’s still cautious about rekindling things. Can they just be friends, or is there more to this story? Thoughts? #BenJenReunion #ParentingGoals #CelebGossip #EasterVibes #Entertainment

Our Parenting goal: Full Seasonal Affective Disorder for Our Little Brontë 🦚

The bleak, gray moors of Yorkshire are already calling to our newborn, I swear! With a family tree full of novelists and poets, we just know our brilliant little one is destined to grow up churning out dark, brooding Gothic novels, probably all set in the misty 1800s English countryside. The only question was: how do you properly inspire such a brilliant, burgeoning storyteller? One night, at a Du Maurier reading (naturally), a friend had a stroke of genius. She suggested we paint Baby's room to look like a bleak, cheerless sky. And so we did. And honestly? We're thrilled! We are now supremely confident that our future literary genius will grow up sufficiently dark and wonderfully brooding. #GothicBaby #DarkHumor #Parenting #ParentingGoals #DarkAcademiaStyle #SARoom #WriterInTraining #BabyShowerRegistry #NewParents #VictorianGhostLook #HomeDecor

My "tiny" mum gave my headteacher a black eye

What did your mom do that became the stuff of legend? "My mum gave my headteacher a black eye!!" OMG. Isn't that the best answer ever? *** My mum is barely over 5 feet tall, really well-spoken, and just a true lady. But back in the late 70s, when she worked nights as a nurse, things were a bit wilder. She even played strip poker with the patients on her spinal ward to pass the time. She always won too, since they had a sheet and she had her uniform. We lived in a tough area. Our headteacher, Mr. Jackson, was a huge guy, at least 6'4", and everyone hated him. He was really mean. He even caned me once just because my friend swore, and I wasn't even there! So, every day at lunch, Mr. Jackson would take something from my lunch. Mum complained, while Mr. Jackson kept taking them. After about three weeks, Mum told him there would be consequences if he "stole" our juice again. Well, he did it again that very day. Only this time, Mum was right there at the lunch hall door and saw him. She flew across the hall and confronted him. I swear, I've never seen my mum move so fast! She literally hopped onto a chair, put her foot up on his desk, and landed the most perfect punch to his eye ever. She then calmly climbed back down, got to my level, and said, "Violence is never right, but standing up for what's right always is." Then she looked at him and said, "They will get their juice or I will be here every day." Mr. Jackson just stood there, mouth open, hand over his eye, and nodded. I was completely amazed. She just spun around and walked out. He didn't show up for the rest of the day, but the next day, he had the blackest black eye you've ever seen. Mum's tiny hand must have hit him just right because he sported that bruise for two whole weeks! After that, I got my juice, always! BEST MUM EVER! All the kids were in awe of her. She was definitely not someone you wanted to cross, but she was also the most loving parent anyone could wish for. #FamilyStories #BestMum #TrueStory #WWIIKid #GrowingUp #UnforgettableMoments #LifeLessons #ParentingGoals
