Discipline
We make family rules and boundaries we know are good for the kids... and sometimes the kids don't like them. We know it's our job to teach our children all the things they'll need for adulthood... but sometimes it's so much work it doesn't feel worth it. Boy oh boy. Discipline isn't for the faint of heart. Luckily, children are made to like rules (yes, you read that right!) and expect things to be consistent. In fact, they thrive when they know what we expect and we help them work through it all.
