Imagine that your child does something that irritates you. What do you do first?

Select an answer:

I turn around and count to ten to organize my thoughts. I will start to talk about what happened so that the child understands. I will check if I made any mistakes in upbringing. I'll just say that kids are simply like that, and I'll leave it at that. I will react impulsively, then I will apologize.

If you had a whole day just for yourself, what would you do?

Select an answer:

I would plan everything in advance, including rest. I would let it flow and see where the day takes me. I would start something that I have been postponing for a long time. I would call my friends so I wouldn't be alone. I would feel a strange emptiness and wonder what I am missing.

What do you think when you see another parent yelling at their child on the street?

A garden full of sounds, scents, and mysteries. A school where everything had its order. A quiet place where I could hide. Lively streets and loud laughter. A place where something was always anticipated.

When your child says, "I hate you!", what do you feel first?

Rare, but real. Calming and kind. A little nervous when I'm tired. Loud and contagious. Something that only sounds at home.

I am doing the best I can. I don't have to be perfect to be good enough. Even small steps are steps. Children teach me just as I teach them. Today I deserve to be proud of myself.
