How Crap a Parent Are You?
Not wanting to re-invent the wheel, I'm blogging about the unlikely odds that my kids ever reached their teenage years over at Expat Mum.
do you mean how bad am I? how long is a piece of string....don;t we always worry about how we are doing? its not like school where we get scored or marked, merit marks or anything....
I'm trying not to take it personally that my daughter chooses to live with her Dad....but I would have to have a hard hard heart to not feel anything and take it a tad personally, not that lm showing her this...
Saz - don't beat yourself up. I was actually trying to make us all feel better by getting everyone to list the worst examples of lax parenting. Like jamming your toddler's fingers in the car window etc. And by golly there are some hum dingers on the list!

could do better! I think most mums put themselves in this category. Why do we give ourselves such a hard time?
