This was the last unpublished podcast for 2022 reflecting on how we might deal with the long journey of parenting. Like others, over the past twenty years, I have had to find my way over and my journey is not finished. I sometimes have felt crushed, in this space, but share some things that might help us to cope a little more on our pathways. This parenting experience is not a short distance journey. It's like a car ride where the kids keep asking "are we there yet"! We can't abandon the car really although we might want to. We're trapped on the road as we practice parenting for the long haul.
