To All The Parents Who Have Kids Struggling In School

If you have a child who is struggling within the school system, this rant is for you. I want you to know you’re not alone.

I can’t tell you how many parents I’ve shared this conversation with, yet it’s so easy to think we’re the only ones struggling. 

The system doesn’t work for everyone. It’s not a one size fits all situation and to all the teachers who get this, I thank you.

And if your kid is the one who refuses to get out of the car, and cries when you drop them off, and cries when you pick them up — hang in there.

Do not give into the idea that your child should be like every single other child. They don’t need to be in a category. In a box.

Trust your mommy gut, because MAN, it’s powerful.

Your kid is going to be fine. And you are doing an amazing job.
