I will go through periods of time where I feel great and I'm the best mom and I'm doing well and my marriage is good and the house looks great and then it'll all tank and I'll feel like everything is horrible and I'm a terrible person and I'm not good at taking care of her and you know the world's gonna end.
Welcome to how to I'm Carvel Wallace.
You know, I've spent the last 21 years of my life facing down parenting questions, sometimes as a parent and other times as a parenting advice columnist.
And what I've seen is that there are some parenting questions that have pretty clear answers, like how to handle bedtime or what to do with a kid who won't eat vegetables.
But there are some questions that not only don't have easy answers, they really don't have a solution at all.
And those ones usually have to do with the fact that parenting is just hard.
It's hard to be responsible for someone else.
It's hard to love someone so much that you would do anything for them.
And it's hard to never get a break from that.
And so sometimes the question isn't what do I do to fix this?
