A tale of toddler tantrums... today!

just got home from a mall. I witnessed a little boy, who's still non-verbal, trying to express something, through hand gestures to his dad. Out of frustration, because his parents couldn't understand him, he started crying. The dad then said, "Sige, bahala ka diyan!"

I felt so bad for the boy.

Does tough love still work? Some people in social media would say that gentle parenting is for the spoiled and weak.

July is Nutrition Month in the Philippines! 🥗

What are some ways you encourage your family members to eat more fruits and vegetables?

This Nutrition Month, challenge your family to include at least one fruit and one vegetable in every meal. Start today and share your healthy plate to inspire others!

What are some early signs of autism or neurodivergence that you wish more parents knew? I hope more parents feel comfortable talking about this. I’d love to share my experience, and I’d love to hear yours too.

With the recent news especially the incidents happening in schools, it really makes you think about your child’s safety.

I’m not saying homeschooling is better.

I’m just curious if you had the chance, would you consider it?

Due very soon with my first. For those who have been through it—looking back, how did you prepare for the actual birth (mentally, physically, or logistically) that you would 100% do the exact same way again?

And to balance it out: what is one way you prepared that you would NEVER do again or that ended up being completely useless when labor actually started?

If there will be amendments with the current Juvenile Law, what are your proposals? Do you agree to lower the age of criminal responsibility?

I know that every preemie journey is unique. But would to hear from fellow parents. What is one victory that you’re celebrating with your preemie right now? And what is one challenge you’re currently navigating?

Our 34-weeker is now 2 years and 4 months old. One of our biggest victories is seeing him continue to meet his milestones. As preemie parents, we’re always diligent about developmental check-ins and watching for any possible delays.

Our biggest challenge right now (just like with his preemie kuya before him) is slow weight gain. His BMI is within the normal range accdg to his pedia, but I’m still looking for ways to encourage him to eat more and build healthy weight. 😅

Looking forward to hearing stories and tips too. ❤️

I’m wondering when kids usually stop taking daytime naps.

How old was your child when they dropped their afternoon nap? Did it happen naturally, or did you decide it was time to transition away from naps?

What signs told you they were ready? Did it affect their bedtime, mood, or overall routine?

I’d love to hear your experiences and tips from fellow parents! 💛

Parents of teens, what body care products do you usually buy?
