It’s so easy to judge other parents, but you should hesitate before doing so. When I see a mom at the grocery store whispering aggressively into her kid’s ear about how he’d better behave himself, I feel for her. It’s not easy to openly struggle with your kids like that; it can be a humiliating …

I don’t want to brag, but I’m so lucky to have a good relationship with my parents. I can go to them to talk about anything, and they are so willing to offer help. I’ll admit the way I communicate with my mom, and my dad over text messages is very different. My mom and …
