Ever found yourself in the throes of frustration, fists clenched, and patience worn thin? We've all been there, and in this episode, I pull back the curtain on the elusive art of frustration tolerance. It's not just about biting your tongue or counting to ten; it's a journey through the emotional wilderness that teaches us resilience, patience, and adaptability. Patience isn't just a virtue—it's a skill, and one that's particularly tested in the realm of parenting. In this episode, we tackle the herculean task of aligning our expectations with the ever-changing developmental stages of our children. By planning for those car seat battles or the painstakingly slow shoe-tying sessions, we're not just teaching our kids; we're learning patience ourselves. By challenging our assumptions and working with our expectations, we can model better behavior for our children, making for a more resilient and joyful experience in our families.
