It's normal to feel confused in parenting. Should I let my child do this activity or not? Should I discipline him or ignore what he's doing? Should I change my mind or stay firm? Does it matter if I'm the only parent who insists on "xyz" or is it unfair to my child? At what age should a child be doing "abc?" The questions are endless, the uncertainty rampant. And how can it be otherwise? Raising a human being raises an infinity of unanswerable questions; the parent who is absolutely sure about everything he or she says and does is over-confident and under-humble. When you are feeling unsure, pat yourself on the back for having the wisdom and humility to recognize the enormity and impossibility of the task before you. You can never know for sure. You can simply try your best.
