Just what IS a “parenting expert?”
I mean, apart from perhaps some letters after your name, what makes YOU a parenting expert compared to someone else? Do you just one day look at the perfection that sprung from your loins one day and decide that you nailed it and therefore you must go and share your god granted gift with other less stellar parents?
Just curious is all. I mean….really, unless you are sucking at parenting to the point that child services is showing up at your door everyday, isn’t a lot of it subjective?
Don’t we all deal with things in different ways?
Aaaah too many question marks.
And seriously, how many Professional Days does a school need!!!???
Good question. I don’t have an answer. I don’t have kids, I certainly am not an expert.

Parenting expert.
If you have time to define yourself, you ain’t an expert.
Happy American Thanksgiving to the House of Crunch.
Parenting Expert- What you are until you have children. 😉
I like how you can think out this. I don’t wonder about things like that! LOL! But I like it when other people do.
a parenting expert is someone with an ego big enough to be called one.. or someone who unknowingly has been labeled one. To some people the mere act of squatting out a kid and keeping them alive for a few years earns “expert” rank. It’s puzzling really
ohhh! I hear you! this one really burns my butt. I actually had a nice little arguement with a mom a while back who was flogging this “child sleep expert’s” advice when I pointed out this “expert” had ONE kid, had NO formal training, and was basing her very expensive sleep training system on her own research (probably rag sessions with other moms! lol). Damn! I wish I’d thought of it first!
Hope you’re feeling better soon…..just think, the kids will be off on Winter break soon…..you can sleep in!!! hahahaha!
